Supports AMD
Dual Socket L1 Athlon 64 FX CPU L1N64-SLI WS supports AMD Dual Socket L1 Athlon 64 FX processors which
is based on 64-bit architecture. It features 2000/1600 MT/s HyperTransport
Bus and dual-channel un-buffered DDR400 memory support. Currently.
NVIDIA SLI™ Technology
NVIDIA SLI™ (Scalable Link Interface) takes advantage of the increased
bandwidth of the PCI Express bus architecture and features intelligent hardware
and software that allows two GPUs to efficiently work together to deliver
earth-shattering, scalable performance. For some applications nearly 2X
performance!
Stack Cool 2
Stack Cool 2 is a fan-less and zero-noise cooling solution. It effectively
transfers heat generated by the critical components to the other side of
the specially designed PCB (printed circuit board) for effective heat dissipation.
Fanless Design
Cooling fans, though a popular thermal solution, also come with noise and
malfunction likelihood. ASUS Motherboard's fanless concept is specifically
created to provide a cool environment without all the baggage. ASUS has
devoted special efforts to address the thermal issues across the motherboard,
and most notably the areas that reside the CPU, power, Northbridge and Southbridge.
The heat sinks and strategic board layout are tailor made to dissipate heat
in the most efficient manner. With the addition of Stack Cool 2, users can
even overclock without a noisy, bulky fan.
GreenASUS
The motherboard and its packaging comply with the European Union's 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.

Best Motherboard i've ever had, runs my 2 FX - 74 processor chips and dual 8800 Ultra OC's flawlessly, but make sure you pick up liquid cooling, especially if you plan on overclocking the processors or using the SLI functions, because the hardware generates a LOT of heat (you made need to modify the liquid cooling system to support both cpu blocks)

GGGreat motherboard. Great functions it configures itself. So good, love it, runs fast has great onboard audio, dont even buy a sound card, comes with a program for it and everything. Theres was one complaint i had, after installing my two video cards and my sound card, i didnt have an additional slot for my PCI tv tuner, theres only one PCI slot. I was very dissapointed that i had to send it back for an external. Besides that i cant think of any other motherboard on the market better

PCI
Express - Delivering Dramatically Improved Graphics
Doubling the bandwidth of the AGP 8X graphics bus, the new PCI Express represents
the most profound change to desktop architecture in nearly a decade. PCI
Express replaces AGP, allowing much larger amounts of data to move between
the graphics card and the CPU, and will soon replace PCI expansion slots
as well. The PCI standard allows for a 32-bit bus with a maximum throughput
of 133MB/s. By contrast, PCI Express will run at 2.5GHz. PCI Express is
a two-way serial connection that carries data in packets along two pairs
of point-to-point data lines, compared to the single parallel data bus of
traditional PCI. Gamers will benefit from an incredible upgrade in video
quality with PCI Express, because it will allow for more powerful video
cards, inspiring developers to create more realistic environments that will
make games come alive with astonishingly lifelike colors and images. Video
enthusiasts will also benefit because PCI Express will accommodate higher-quality
video throughput (amount of data you can send per second). As network television
moves over to HDTV broadcasts, PCI Express positions the PC platform for
integration into the living room, while also allowing for HD video editing
and other bandwidth-intensive tasks. PCI Express is compatible with existing
PCI drivers and software operating systems and is designed to co-exist with
current PCI hardware.
