ASUS Intelligence Everywhere The World´s First Motherboards with ASUS AI Technology    AI Audio - Intelligent Audio-Sensing Technology AI Net - Intelligent Net-Diagnosing Utility AI Overclocking - Intelligent CPU Frequency Tuner AI BIOS - Intelligent Auto-Recovery BIOS and More To create a user-friendly interface, ASUS introduced the Artificial Intelligence (AI) Series. These motherboards include automatic and intelligent features for Gbit LAN, 6-channel audio, BIOS recovery technology and more. The Ideal Audio Solution--8-Channel Audio Enhances ASUS 865PE Series Improving on the high-speed P4P800-E, this Deluxe edition throws in an rich-array of features such as IEEE 1394 connectivity, Multi-RAID technology and POST Reporter. Let’s not forget support for industry-leading specs such as the Intel 865PE chipset, ASUS unique Hyper Path technology, 8-channel audio, Serial ATA and Gigabit LAN.

ASUS Hyper Path Technology ASUS Hyper Path, a unique technology for the ASUS P4P800 series, optimizes the true potential of the Intel 865PE chipset to deliver the highest performance amongst competing 856PE-based solutions. All P4P800 Series PCB and BIOS versions support Hyper Path.

Intel 865 PE chipset Leveraging the Intel 865PE chipset to support 3.2 GHz+ P4 CPU on 800MHz FSB, Dual DDR 400 memory, Intel Hyper-Threading Technology, and a full-range of advanced features, P4P800-E really delivers a full-value, high-performance solution for today´s most demanding tasks.

Dual-Channel DDR400 Dual-channel DDR technology doubles the bandwidth of your system memory and hence boost the system performance to out perform any memory existing solutions in the market. System bottlenecks are eliminated with balanced architecture and peak bandwidths up to 6.4GB/s.

AI Audio via 8-Channel CODEC The ALC850 CODEC has eight channels of 16-Bit DAC, a stereo 16-Bit ADC, and an AC97 2.3 compatible multi-channel audio designed for PC multimedia systems. It also automatically detects and identifies what types of peripherals are plugged into the audio I/O jacks and notifies users of inappropriate connection. No more confusion of Line-in, Line-out and Mic jacks. AI NET The AI Series supports Gigabit LAN by integrating the Marvell 88E8001 controller, equipped with a unique net-diagnosing utility-- VCT (Virtual Cable Tester). The controller intelligently detects net connection status up to 100 meters from a remote location and reports the distance of bad cable.

AI BIOS CrashFree BIOS 2~ Whenever BIOS gets corrupted, ASUS CrashFree BIOS 2 allows users to reboot the computer and perform an smart auto-recovery procedure through the motherboard support CD. Q-Fan Technology This unique technology intelligently and automatically adjusts CPU fan speeds according to system load and temperature, enabling users to work in a distraction-free environment with minimal noise. ASUS POST Reporter~ A voice warning design during POST notifies users of any system errors, which means no more complicated LED messages!

AI Overclocking The unique AI Overclocking Tuner in BIOS enables quick overclocking up to 30% (depends on CPU and RAM). It automatically detects and optimizes every relevant parameter to provide both performance and stability. The BIOS in AI Series also keeps all the special design for overclocking: -- Flexible CPU Core Voltage Adjustments in 0.025V increments over defaults -- SFS (Stepless Frequency Selection) up to 400MHz at 1MHz increanerts -- Adjustable FSB/DDR ratio. Fixed AGP/PCI frequencies -- ASUS C.P.R.(CPU Parameter Recall) ASUS Wi-Fi slot The Wi-Fi slot is specifically designed for the ASUS Wireless LAN add-on card (ex. WiFi-b™) to set up an environment for home Wireless LAN. The ASUS WiFi-b™ add-on card bundles the exclusive Software AP (Access Point) to save the extra cost of an hardware AP. In addition, the card comes with user-friendly utilities and applications that allow quick connection to notebooks, PDAs and other WLAN peripherals. The Wi-Fi slot supports the 802.11g standard for future upgrades. (Note: The WiFi-b™ card with software AP has to be purchased separately)

Multi-RAID The P4P800-E Deluxe offers the most complete RAID solution. A Promise RAID controller offers RAID 0, 1 and 0+1 functions with Max. 2 UltraATA 133 ports and 2 SATA HD ports, enabling users to build a RAID array with any 2, 3 or 4 of the ports. With unique multi-RAID function, RAID 0 and RAID 1 array can co-exist.

IEEE 1394 interface IEEE 1394 interface provides high speed digital interface for audio / video appliances such as digital television, digital video camcorders, storage peripherals & other PC portable devices.

S/PDIF-out on Back I/O Port ASUS P4P800-E Deluxe provides convenient connectivity to external home theater audio systems via an optical or coaxial S/PDIF-out (SONY-PHILIPS Digital Interface) jack. It allows to transfer digital audio without converting to analog format and keeps the best signal quality.  AGP8X AGP8X (AGP 3.0) is the next generation VGA interface specification that enables enhanced graphics performance with high bandwidth up to 2.12GB/s. ICH5R with Integrated SATA and RAID 0 Intel is the world´s first chipset maker to integrate Serial ATA (SATA) and RAID 0, 1 functions into the South Bridge. The latest ICH5R chipset now delivers 150MB/s fast data transfer (SATA) and striping performance to enhance computing efficiency. Max. 8 USB 2.0 ports supports USB 2.0 is the latest connectivity standard for next generation components and peripherals. Backwards compatible with current USB 1.1 peripherals, USB 2.0 delivers transfer speeds up to 40 times faster at 480Mb/s, for easy connectivity and ultra-fast data transfers.
