The P5PE-VM supports the latest Pentium 4 CPU from Intel in LGA775
package. With 1066(O.C)/800/ 533MHz FSB, Hyper-Threading Technology and
core-speeds up to 3.8GHz and beyond, Intels LGA775 Pentium 4 is one of
the fastest desktop processors to date.
64-bit CPU support
64-bit computing, the next generation technology to replace current
32-bit architecture, delivers advanced system performance, faster memory
access and increased productivity. This motherboard provides excellent
compatibility and flexibility by supporting either 64-bit or 32-bit
architecture.
Intel 865G chipset
Leveraging the Intel 865G chipset to support 3.8GHZ+ P4 CPUs on 800MHz
FSB, dual-channel DDR 400 memory, Intel Hyper-Threading Technology,
Intel Extreme Graphics 2, and a full-range of advanced features, the
P5PE-VM delivers a full-value solution for todays most demanding tasks.
Intel Extreme Graphics 2
The P5PE-VM,with integrated Intel Extreme Grpahics 2,delivers powerful
integrated 2D and 3D graphics performance for functionality and value. It
supports DVI-ADD card which is an AGP Digital Display card designed to
make the system capable of driving a variety of DVO devices (e.g., TMDS,
LVDS and TV-Out.)
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.
AGP8X
AGP8X (AGP 3.0) enables enhanced graphics performance with high bandwidth
up to 2.12GB/s.
ASUS CPU Lock Free
The P5PE-VM offers the CPU Lock Free feature, which allows you to adjust
CPU multiplier to 14x. The reduction of multiplier value provides more
flexibility for increasing external FSB frequency to raise memory bus
bandwidth. CPU Lock Free boosts overall system performance by making
synchronous modification possible. Enjoy better performance at the same
CPU operation speed and improve your system without pushing the CPU to
the limit.
Serial ATA technology
Serial ATA provides scalable performance. With up to 150MB/s data transfer
rate, Serial ATA is faster than current Parallel ATA.
CrashFree BIOS2
The CrashFree BIOS 2 feature now includes the BIOS auto-recovery function
in a support CD. Users can reboot their system through the support CD
when a bootable disk is not available, and go through the simple BIOS
auto-recovery process. ASUS motherboards now enable users to enjoy this
protection feature without the need to pay for an optional ROM.
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.
C.P.R.(CPU Parameter Recall)
When the system hangs due to overclocking failure, there is no need
to open the case to clear CMOS data. Just simply restart the system,
the BIOS would show the previous setting and then users can amend the
CPU setting again.
Green ASUS
The motherboard and its packaging comply with the European Unions
Restriction on the use of Hazardous Substances (RoHS). This is in line
with the ASUS vision of creating environment-friendly and recyclable
products and packaging to safeguard consumers health while minimizing
the impact on the environment.
EZ Flash
With EZ Flash, you can update BIOS before entering operating system. No
more DOS-based flash utility and bootable disks are required.
