CPU Features
Supports AMDR Socket AM2+ Phenom FX / Phenom X4 / Phenom X2 / Athlon X2 / Sempron
This motherboard supports AMDR Socket AM2+ multi-core processors with unique L3 cache and delivers better overclocking capabilities with less power consumption. It features dual-channel DDR2 1066 memory support and accelerates data transfer rate up to 5200MT/s via HyperTransport 3.0 based system bus.

PCIe 2.0
Double Speed; Double Bandwidth
This motherboard supports the latest PCIe 2.0 devices for double speed and bandwidth which enhances system performance.
NVIDIA nForceR780a SLI Chipset
The NVIDIA nForceR780a SLI chipset supports the NVIDIAR Scalable Link Interface (SLI) technology that allows three graphics processing units (GPUs) in a single system. It ¡s designed for enthusiast, extreme overclocking capability, ultimate gaming performance with SLI technology support. It ¡s definitely one of the fastest platform in the world. The NVIDIA nForceR780a SLI chipset also supports six (6) Serial ATA 3 Gb/s devices, PCI Express x16 slots with NVIDIAR SLI support at dual x16 mode or at tripple x8 mode, and up to 10 USB 2.0 ports.
Native DDR2 1066 Support
This motherboard is the AMDR platform with native DDR2 1066 support. It provides faster data transfer rate and more bandwidth to increase memory data transfer rate and computing efficiency, enhancing system performance in 3D graphics and other memory demanding applications.
*DDR2 1066 is supported by some of the AM2+ CPUs only. Refer to www.asus.com for the supported CPU models.
NVIDIA 3-Way SLI
3-Way SLI Provides Scalable Performance
NVIDIA 3-Way SLI(Scalable Link Interface) makes use of the PCI Express 2.0 bus architecture ¡s increased bandwidth and features intelligent hardware and software that allows three GPUs to efficiently work together to deliver earth-shattering, scalable performance. For some applications, this translates into nearly triple the performance!
HDMI/DVI Support
High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is a set of digital video standards that delivers multi-channel audio and uncompressed digital video for full HD 1080p visuals through a single cable. Supporting HDCP copy protection such as HD DVD and Blu-ray Discs, HDMI provides you with the highest-quality home theater experience.
 COP EX
OC in confidence
The COP EX allows overclockers to increase chipset voltages without the worries of overheating. It can also be used to monitor and save an overheating GPU. The COP EX allows more freedom and less constraint for maximum performance achievement.
 Voltiminder LED
Friendly reminder on the intentional madness
In the pursuit of extreme performance, overvoltage adjustment is critical but risky. Acting as the "red zone" of a tachometer, the Voltiminder LED displays the voltage status for CPU, NB, SB, and Memory in a intuitive color-coded fashion.The voltiminder LED allows quick voltage monitoring for overclockers.
 Extreme Tweaker
One stop performance tuning shop
Extreme Tweakers is the one stop shop to fine-tune your system to optimal performance. No matter if you're looking for frequency adjustment, over-voltage options, or memory timing settings, they're all here!
 8+2 Phase Power Design
ASUS 8+2 Phase Power Design, with independent power to vital components, ultimately enhances memory performance and ensures quick response and stability of CPU under heavy loading or overclocking modes.
AI Booster 2
Overclocking has never been so fun with a user-friendly utility under Windows that provides accurate settings for the CPU, chipset and memory. Now it's even easier to achieve astounding overclocking results without any hassles!
 SupremeFX II
Listen with Absolute HD
SupremeFX II delivers an excellent high definition audio experience to the gamers of ROG. The SupremeFX II features unique audio innovations for gamers to spot enemies in 3D environment during game play. SupremeFX II also provides gamers a special tool to emphasize human voices in games to help make dialogues clearer and more audible.
LCD Poster
 Debug with Translation
The new LCD Poster now posts critical POST information in an ever friendly and flexible external display. When system malfunction occurs, the LCD Poster automatically detects device failure and translates the errors on the LCD during POST. Unlike other competing 2 digit displays, users won't need to read "gibberish" to find out what's wrong.
Onboard Switch
No more shorting pins or moving jumpers
With an easy press during overclock, this exclusive onboard switch allows gamer to effortlessly fine-tune the performance without having to short the pins or moving jumpers!
GreenASUS
