ASUS P4C800 i875 Canterwood Mainboard (1) Overclocker 14 Apr 2003
ASUS P4C800 i875 Canterwood
Intel 875P chipset is Intel’s latest desktop chipset products to integrate the most
advanced PC technologies available today, and to boost the system performance to
the next level through the state-of-the-art 800MHz front side bus.
P4C800 comes with AI functions. AI as its names implies stands for Artificial
Intelligence or ‘ASUS Intelligence’. With built-in artificial intelligence, you
can enjoy user-friendly and hassle-free PC experience. Currently AI features
include:
AI Audio, AI NET, AI Overclocking, AI BIOS
and more in the future…
AI Audio
In collaboration with Analog Devices Inc., ASUS AI Series motherboards integrate
AD1985 6-channel CODEC, which together with SoundMAX 4 software installed is the
world’s first audio system to implement Audio ESP™ (Enumeration & Sensing
Process) technology. We call it “AI Audio”. It’s also the world’s first 100%
AC’97 2.3 compliant CODEC.
The AI feature intelligently detects I/O events, identifies peripherals
involved, and reminds end users to correct inappropriate connections
Auto-configure as 4 channel or 6 channel audio system when the 2nd or 3rd pairs
of speakers are installed. Artificial Intelligence learning mechanism to
memorize the device’s characteristics so for better recognition next time.
The AD1985 codec creates an immersive, ultra- realistic audio environment for 3D
gaming, digital music and 5.1 DVD movie audio playback
Stereo microphone support. And unique noise cancellation technology increases
accuracy and reliability of voice input for SoundMax Superbeam microphone –
terrific for voice recognition applications. Enhanced wizard allows end users to
quickly and easily setup their audio system
3COM 3C940 Gigabit Ethernet
ASUS AI Series motherboard integrates 3COM 3C940 Gigabit Ethernet LAN
Integrated LAN Cable Tester (several thousand $$) – VCT (Virtual Cable Tester)
to remotely diagnose and report cable faults up to 100 meters at 1 meter
accuracy Significantly reduces service calls and returned products
AI-Overclocking
Built-in BIOS option [AI Tuner] for users to choose targeted FSB, Max. 1066MHz
depending on CPU & RAM, then system auto-detects & optimizes every relevant
parameter for stable overclocking
Strong stability backed by Asus RD intelligence
A general user can also enjoy the fun of overclocking
Other overclocking features:
JumperFreeTM
SFS (stepless frequency selection), accurate 1MHz adjustments to fine-tune
system-bus-frequency up to 400MHz (1600MHz FSB)
Adjustable CPU frequency multiple for unlocked CPU
Adjustable CPU, Memory & AGP voltages
Fixed PCI/AGP frequency
CrashFree BIOS 2: allows users to reboot the computer and perform an
auto-recovery procedure using the motherboard support CD whenever the original
BIOS corrupts
Q-Fan : intelligently and automatically adjusts CPU fan speeds according to
system load and temperature, enables users to work in a distraction-free
environment with minimal system noise.
POST Reporter : a voice warning design during POST that allows users to clearly
understand any system errors.
No more complex LED message needed to be recognized!
