1-6 Chapter 1: Product introduction
ASUS Array Mic
The Bundled Superbeam Array Microphone receives only the sound
coming from the reception cone and ignores the sounds coming from other
directions. This mechanism eliminates a large number of interferences,
including neighboring speakers and reverberations. It also uses advanced
de-reverberation techniques to reduce echo and minimize its effect on the
speech engine. This feature can enchance speech-centric applications like
Skype, online game, video conference, and recording. See page 5-17 for
details.
Noise Filter
This feature detects repetitive and stationary noises (non-voice signals) like
computer fans, air conditioners, and other background noises then eliminates
it in the incoming audio stream while recording. See page 5-17 for details.
Advanced Thermal Design
ASUS Stack Cool 2
ASUS Stack Cool 2 is a fan-less and zero-noise cooling solution that lowers
the temperature of critical heat generating components. The motherboard
uses a special design on the printed circuit board (PCB) to dissipate heat that
critical components generate. See page 2-3 for details.
8-Phase Power Design
The ASUS 8-Phase Power Design prolongs CPU lifespan and keeps the
system stable by preventing high power stress to the CPU and power supply
module. The design ensures high efciency operation to generate less heat
compared with conventional power solutions, thus achieving cool system
environment and making this motherboard ideal for overclocking.
Fanless Design and Heat-pipe
The ASUS fanless design allows multi-directional heat ow from major
thermal sources in the motherboard to lower overall system temperature,
resulting in quieter operation and longer system life. ASUS has devoted
special efforts to addressing the thermal issues across the motherboard,
and most notably in the following areas: CPU, power, VGA, Northbridge and
Southbridge. The heat pipe, heatsink, and strategic board layout were tailor
made to dissipate heat in the most efcient manner.
