Boasting the new AMD AM3 socket, the Asus M4A78 allows you to elevate your rig beyond the standard limits with support for the next-generation 45nm AMD Phenom II processors. The board is able to reach memory speeds up to 1066 MHz for blazing fast memory access for today’s latest applications and games. A pair of PCI-Express 2.0 x16 cards can be mounted for cutting-edge graphic power with support for CrossFireX.
Besides the 2 PCI-Express 2.0 x16 lanes for the CrossFireX video, there is also a PCI-Express x1 and 3 PCI slots providing the flexibility for further system enhancements. Storage won't be a problem with 1-PATA connector plus 5-SATA connectors. Asus Turbo Key transforms the PC power button into a physical overclocking button. After easy setup, Turbo Key can boost performance anytime you like, without interrupting on-going work or games.
With current trends leaning towards green tech and energy savings, this board adopts the brand new 8+1 phase VRM power design to deliver improved energy efficiency, dramatically lower system temperature, and enhanced stability for overclocking. Furthermore, the Asus exclusive EPU (Energy Processing Unit) technology provides total power system efficiency by detecting current loadings and intelligently moderating power in real-time, helping save power and money.
