ASUS P5LD-MR 1-3
DDR2-667 memory support
The motherboard supports DDR2 memory which features data transfer
rates of up to 667 MHz to meet the higher bandwidth requirements of the
latest server applications. The dual-channel memory architecture doubles
the bandwidth of your system memory to boost system performance,
eliminating bottlenecks with peak bandwidths of up to 10.7 GB/s.
PCI Express™ interface
The motherboard fully supports PCI Express, the latest I/O interconnect
technology that speeds up the PCI bus. PCI Express features point-to-point
serial interconnections between devices and allows higher clockspeeds by
carrying data in packets. This high speed interface is software compatible
with existing PCI or PCI-X specications. See page 2-18 for details.
Gigabit LAN solution
The motherboard comes with dual Gigabit LAN controllers and ports to
provide a total solution for your networking needs. The onboard Broadcom
®
BCM5753 Gigabit LAN controllers use the PCI Express interface and could
achieve network throughput close to Gigabit bandwidth. See page 2-24 for
details.
Serial ATA II technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA II technology through the Serial
ATA interfaces controlled by the Intel
®
ICH7R. The SATA specication
allows for thinner, more exible cables with lower pin count, reduced
voltage requirement, and up to 300 MB/s data transfer rate. See page
2-27 for details.
Built-in SATA RAID solution
The Intel
®
ICH7R allows RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 0+1, and software RAID
5 conguration for SATA hard disk drives via the Intel
®
Matrix Storage
Manager or the LSI Logic Embedded SATA RAID Setup Utility (no RAID 5).
See page 2-27 and Chapter 5 for details.
USB 2.0 technology
The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0
specication, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the
12 Mbps bandwidth on USB 1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is
backward compatible with USB 1.1. See pages 2-24 and 2-28 for details.
