Features
Specifications

The P5Q Turbo Computer Motherboard from ASUS is a computer motherboard that supports Intel LGA775 CPUs and up to 16GB of DDR2 memory, up to 1300MHz in speed. The motherboard boasts PCI Express 2.0 slots, a Gigabit LAN port, integrated audio, FireWire and USB peripheral ports, and an eSATA port. Integrated drive controllers support up to 2 internal PATA and 7 internal SATA drives.

: • Supports Intel LGA775 CPUs, even those with 45nm designs, which feature large L2 cache and expanded power management capabilities

: • Supports Intel Core 2 Extreme, Core 2 Quad,, Core 2 Duo, Pentium Dual-Core, and Celeron CPUs, perfect for multitasking, multimedia, and games

: • Capable of Front Side Bus speeds of 800MHz, 1066MHz, 1333MHz, and 1600MHz

: • Native support for DDR2 1300MHz memory, which supports a faster data transfer rate and increased bandwidth when compared to slower memory. The motherboard also supports 667MHz, 800MHz, 1066MHz, 1200MHz, and 1300MHz memory

: • ASUS's 8-phase VRM design delivers an industry-leading 96% power efficiency thanks to the use of high-quality power components, including low RDS (on) MOSFETs for minimum switching loss and lower temperature, Ferrite core chokes with lower hysteresis loss, and high-quality Japanese-made conductive power capacitors

: • Express Gate allows you to boot into a bare-bones operating system in as little as 5 seconds. You'll be able to use popular IM clients, including MSN Skype, Google talk, QQ, and Yahoo! Messenger, check the weather and e-mails, and view photos

: • Uses 100% conductive polymer capacitors with a VRM lifespan of 5000 hours at 105° and 500,000 hours at 65° for durability improved lifespan, and enhanced thermal capacity

: • The ASUS EPU (Energy Processing Unit) provides total system power management, detecting current PC loadings and intelligently moderating power in real-time. It automatically provides appropriate power usage for the CP, VGA card, hard drives, and CPU/chassis fans, helping to save power and money

: • A stylish 2-color heatsink drives the 0dB thermal solution, creating a noiseless PC environment. The multicolor design features curved fins, effectively cooling down hot airflows generated by the north bridge chipset. Balancing utility and aesthetic sensibility, the 2-color Wing heatsink cools your system while, at the same time, enhancing its visual qualities

: • The ASUS Fan Xpert system allows you to adjust the CPU and chassis an speed based on ambient temperature, optimizing the computer's cooling system to match your geographic climate

: • ASUS TurboV allows you to overclock your system without exiting or rebooting your operating system, all from a user-friendly interface. It suggests the best overclocking settings for different scenarios

: • ASUS Turbo Key allows you to turn the PC power button into an overclocking button. Turbo Key can boost performance without interrupting your ongoing work or games, with a single touch

: • You'll be able to use the Precision Tweaker 2 to adjust the the NB voltage, FSB termination voltage, CPU PLL voltage, and DRAM voltage in 0.02V steps for fine tuning of your overclocking configuration

: • Drive Xpert allows you to arrange hard drive backups and enhance hard drive transfer rates from an intuitive graphical user interface, without the need to go through BIOS setup or drivers

: • CrashFree BIOS 3 allows you to restore a BIOS that has become corrupted via a backup of the BIOS file stored on a USB flash drive, eliminating the need to purchase a new BIOS chip in the event of corruption

: • ASUS Q-Shield installs without "fingers" for extra convenience, protecting your system against static electricity and Electronic Magnetic Interference (EMI)

: • The ASUS Q-Connector makes it easy to connect or disconnect chassis front panel cables in a single step. The unique adapter eliminates the need to plug cables in individually, allowing for quick and accurate connection

: • O.C. Profile allows you to store and load multiple BIOS settings, allowing you to share your favorite overclocking settings with fellow gamers

: • EZ Flash 2 allows you to update your BIOS from a USB flash disk, eliminating the need to use a floppy disk or OS-based flash utility to bring your system up to date

: • Audio noise filter detects repetitive and stationary noises, such as computer fans, air conditioners, and other background noises, eliminating them when recording using a microphone

: • Integrated DTS Surround Sensation UltraPC audio delivers 5.1 surround sound to most common PC audio setups, including stereo speakers and headphones. In addition to virtual surround sound, the audio system provides a bass enhancement feature to better reproduce low frequency sound, and a voice clarification function to make the human voice clearer, even when there are other loud background sounds present

: • MyLogo 2 allows you to personalize your boot-up logo, converting any image into a 256-color graphic suitable for use as a start-up screen

: • Supports SATA 3Gb/s hard drives for high-speed data storage, even boasting an eSATA port for high-speed external storage connection

: • Integrated FireWire-400 interface supports digital video capture and output to compatible digital camcorders, as well as connection of high-speed external FireWire-400 storage and other devices

: • Onboard 8-channel HD audio system supports high-quality 192kHz/24-bit audio output to connected speakers, multi-streaming technology, and a jack-detect feature to ensure proper audio output

: • Digital S/PDIF port is conveniently located on the back of the motherboard outputs audio to surround sound systems via an optical TOSLINK connection

: • ASUS certifies this motherboard as a GreenASUS device, as it complies with the EU's RoHS directive
