NVIDIA GeForce 7050 / nForce 610i Chipset
The brand new NVIDIA® GeForce 7050 / nForce 610i MCP (Media and Communications Processor) features CineFX™ 3.0 Engine. This unique combination of MCP creates a single motherboard featuring a world-class DX9, Shader Model 3.0 GPU for faster and smoother game-play, a high quality video processing engine for advance quality of video and DVD playback.

Japan-made 5000hrs VRM Solid Capacitors
Stable system operation depends upon the quality of CPU VRM (voltage regulator module). ASUS adopts Conductive Polymer Aluminum Solid Capacitors for CPU VRM to ensure a longer lifespan for systems in daily operation and boost system stability under extreme conditions. CPU VRM with Solid Capacitors featuring better electronic conductivity, excellent heat resistance enhances system durability even operating in high temperature environment.

Supports DDR2 800 up to 4GB Memory
Single-channel DDR2 800(OC) technology boost the system performance to out perform any memory existing solutions in the market.

PCI Express Architecture
PCI Express is the latest I/O interconnect technology that will replace the existing PCI. With a bus bandwidth 4 times higher than that of AGP 8X interface, PCI Express x16 bus performs much better than AGP 8X in applications such as 3D gaming. PCI Express x1 and x4 also outperforms PCI interface with its exceptional high bandwidth. The high speed PCI Express interface creates new usages on desktop PCs e.g., Gigabit LAN, 1394b, and high-speed RAID systems.

8-CH High Definition Audio
Enjoy high-end sound system on your PC!
The onboard HD audio (High Definition Audio, previously codenamed Azalia) CODEC enables high-quality 192KHz/24-bit audio output, jack-sensing feature, retasking functions and multi-streaming technology that simultaneously sends different audio streams to different destinations. You can now talk to your partners on the headphone while playing a multi-channel network games. All of these are done on one computer.

Support SATA 3Gb/s with RAID function
Serial ATA 3Gb/s is the next generation ATA specification that provides scalable performance foroday and tomorrow. The onboard chipset allows RAID 0 ﹠ RAID 1 configurations for four SATA connectors. With up to 3Gbit/s data transfer rate, Serial ATA II is faster than current Parallel ATA, while providing 100% software compatibility.

Max. 8 USB 2.0 ports supports
USB 2.0 is the latest connectivity standard for next generation components and peripherals. Backwards compatible with current USB 1.1 peripherals, USB 2.0 delivers transfer speeds up to 40 times faster at 480Mb/s, for easy connectivity and ultra-fast data transfers.

CrashFree BIOS 2
The CrashFree BIOS 2 feature now includes the BIOS auto-recovery function in a support CD. Users can reboot their system through the support CD when a bootable disk is not available and go through the simple BIOS auto-recovery process. ASUS motherboards now enable users to enjoy this protection feature without the need to pay for an optional ROM.
