Bluetooth 28 May 2004

Computex 2004 will begin on 1st June. Today, we give you the first hand information of what is to be expected at this show. We will include news and pictures of new products in this pre coverage.

First of all, we take a look at what ASUS has to offer this June 2004.

ASUStek

Motherboards

ASUS will display several solutions based on the Alderwood and Grantsdale chipsets.

P5GD2 Premium
Pentium 4 LGA775
Intel 925X
800MHz FSB
Dual-channel DDR2 533
S-ATA RAID, Gbit LAN, IEEE1394b, PCI-E




P4GDC Deluxe
Pentium 4 LGA775
Intel 915P
800MHz FSB
Dual DDR2 533/Dual-channel DDR400
S-ATA RAID, GbLAN, IEEE1394, PCI-E

All three motherboards will incorporate the four new AI Proactive features

AI Proactive –
Enhance Your System Without Lifting a Finger

AI Proactive features automatically and quietly go to work the second you turn on your computer. The intelligent designs enhance your system with better performance, easy establishment of wired and wireless networks and unique cooling technology. You don’t have to do a thing to enjoy faster, cooler processing and convenient networking. Once you’ve experienced AI Proactive, you can never tolerate anything less.

WiFi-g -- Wireless setup made affordable and easy!
WEP? SSID? Building a home WLAN used to be a hassle with confusing acronyms and cryptic menus. With WiFi-g™ and its one-touch setup wizard, high-speed wireless network is just a few clicks away. WiFi-g™ serves as the access point of your network or if you already have an access point, it is also a wireless adapter for PCs to access existing WLAN.
(WiFi-g™ is compliant to IEEE 802.11g 54 Mbps data transfer.)

* Function as wireless access point, bridge or network adapter
* Small portable antenna can be repositioned to optimize transmission distance and quality
*Easy click wizard makes building a wireless network a breeze

Stack Cool -- Cooler Overclocking and Quieter Operation
Heat causes instability and shortens system lifecycle, and motherboard power circuitry is a major thermal source. The patented Stacked Cool™ technology utilizes a mini PCB stacked against the main PCB to conduct heat away from power components, resulting in a 10° Celsius reduction. And voila! Cooler overclocking, quieter fan operation, greater stability and longer system life without you doing a thing.

*The world's most "slim & sleek" cooling system
*Reduce heat buildup improving reliability for overclocking
*Fanless design, zero noise & zero fan malfunction
*Zero power consumption
*10°Celsius (18°Fehrenheit) lower guaranteed

AI NOS -- Boost performance when you need it the most
Applications such as 3D games and video editing demand a huge chunk of system resource.
Inject "nitrous oxide" into your CPU! The patented AI NOS™ (Non-delay Overclocking System) technology intelligently detects system load and automatically boosts performance for the most demanding tasks. And unlike other ”dynamic overclocking” methods, AI NOS™ accelerates faster to your need for speeds .

*Dynamically boost CPU speeds for performance-hungry applications
*Faster activation compared with competing dynamic overclocking solutions
*Maximize system performance without sacrificing stability

AI NET -- Diagnose LAN connection before entering OS
Network problems are often caused by bad cable connection. AI Net 2 remotely detects cable connection the second you turn on the system, and any faulty connections are reported back up to 100 meters at 1 meter accuracy.
