  • Note
    Note
    (Note 1) Due to Windows Vista/XP 32-bit operating system limitation, when more than 4 GB of physical memory is installed, the actual memory size displayed will be less than 4 GB.
    (Note 2) Whether 1066MHz or above memory speed is supported depends on the CPU being used.
    (Note 3) For optimum performance, if only one PCI Express graphics card is installed, be sure to install it in the PCIEX16_1 slot. The PCIEX8_1 slot shares bandwidth with the PCIEX16_1 slot. When PCIEX8_1 is populated with a PCI Express graphics card, the PCIEX16_1 slot will operate at up to x8 mode.
    (Note 4) The DVI-D port does not support D-Sub connection by adapter.
    (Note 5) Whether the CPU/system fan speed control function is supported will depend on the CPU/ system cooler you install.
    (Note 6) Available functions in EasyTune may differ by motherboard model.
    (Note 7) Due to the hardware limitation, you must install the AMD AM3 Phenom II/ AM2+ Phenom series CPU to enable support for Easy Energy Saver.
