ASUS A8N-SLI SE 1-5
1.3.3 Innovative ASUS features
ASUS AI Selector
The AI Selector allows you to set the video card mode of your system. This
utility works when you have two graphics cards installed in your system.
See page 5-35 for details.
ASUS EZ Plug™
This patented ASUS technology is a 4-pin auxiliary +12V connector that
is designed to maintain the voltage integrity of your system. This plug
guarantees adequate supply of power to the motherboard and other
installed peripherals. See page 6-4 for illustration.
ASUS Two-slot thermal design
The motherboard is designed with one PCI Express x1 slots and PCI
Express x4 slots placed between the PCI Express x16 slots allowing an
increase in airflow between the two PCI Express x16 graphics cards. This
special design permits more room for ventilation thus lowering the overall
system temperature.
CrashFree BIOS 2
This feature allows you to restore the original BIOS data from the support
CD in case when the BIOS codes and data are corrupted. This protection
eliminates the need to buy a replacement ROM chip. See page 4-5 for
details.
ASUS Q-Fan2 technology
The ASUS Q-Fan2 technology smartly adjusts the fan speeds according to
the system loading to ensure quiet, cool, and efficient operation. See page
4-37 for details.
ASUS MyLogo2™
This new feature present in the motherboard allows you to personalize and
add style to your system with customizable boot logos. See page 5-9 for
details.
