Performance

2. FEATURES

2.1.2 Performance

• UltraPerformance: Onboard Ultra160 dual channel SCSI controller with two

connectors that support 30 Ultra160 SCSI devices in two channels.

• High-Speed Data Transfer Interface: SCSI transfers using Ultra160 dual-

channel SCSI controller can handle rates up to 160MB/s. Ultra160 is backward

compatible with slower SCSI devices so that older SCSI devices are not wasted.

(Ultra160 SCSI cables have twisted pairs compared to flat ribbon cables used in

older SCSI standards.)

• SDRAM Optimized Performance: This motherboard supports PC133

“registered” Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory (SDRAM), which

increases the data transfer rate to 1064MB/s max

• ACPI Ready: ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is also

implemented on all ASUS smart series motherboards. ACPI provides more Energy

Saving Features for future operating systems (OS) supporting OS Direct Power

Management (OSPM) functionality. With these features implemented in the OS,

PCs can be ready around the clock, yet satisfy all the energy saving standards.

To fully utilize the benefits of ACPI, use an ACPI-supported OS, such as Windows

2000.

• Compliance: Both the Microsoft WHQL and hardware levels of the motherboard

meet the requirements for SDG2.0 certification. The new SDG2.0 requirements

for systems and components are based on the following high-level goals: support

for Plug and Play compatibility and power management for configuring and

managing all system components, and 32-bit device drivers and installation

procedures for Windows NT/2000. Color-coded connectors and descriptive icons

make identification easy as required by PC 99.
