Introduction to ASUS TXP4 Series of Motherboards

Performance

• SDRAM Optimized Performance: The ASUS TXP4 series of motherboards

support the new generation memory—Synchronous Dynamic Random Access

Memory (SDRAM)—which increases the data transfer rate from 264MB/s max

using EDO memory to 528MB/s max.

• Double the IDE Transfer Speed: ASUS TXP4 series of motherboards with

Intel 430TX PCIset improves IDE transfer rate using Bus Master UltraDMA/33

IDE, which can handle data transfers up to 33MB/s. This new technology is

compatible with existing ATA-2 IDE specifications so there is no need to up-

grade current hard disk drives or cables.

• Concurrent PCI: Concurrent PCI allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI mas-

ter busses to memory to CPU.

• ACPI Ready: ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) is also imple-

mented on all ASUS 430TX series of motherboards. ACPI provides more En-

ergy Saving Features for future operating systems (OS) supporting OS Direct

Power Management (OSPM) functionality. With these features implemented in

the OS, PCs can be ready around-the-clock, yet satisfy all the energy saving

standards. To fully utilize the benefits of ACPI, an ACPI-supported OS, such as

the successor to Windows 95, must be used.

• PC ’97 Compliant: Both the BIOS and hardware levels of ASUS TXP4 series

of motherboards meet PC ’97 compliancy. The new PC ’97 requirements for

systems and components are based on the following high-level goals: support

for Plug and Play compatibility and power management for configuring and

managing all system components, and 32-bit device drivers and installation pro-

cedures for both Windows 95 and Windows NT.
