Motherboard company ASUSTeK Computer (ASUS) has announced an exclusive innovation for graphics performance enhancement on its 915P- and 925X-based motherboards. The company says the new PEG (PCI Express Graphics) Link Mode technology enables users to boost graphics card performance for superior video quality.

ASUS says the CPU, memory and graphics support are the three most important factors in determining system performance.

The PEG Link Mode feature, found only on ASUS 915P- and 925X-based motherboards, allows users to raise GPU and VGA memory throughput via the motherboard BIOS the same way system bus and memory bus are tweaked. PEG Link Mode enables powerful video performance on DX8 and DX9 applications. ASUS says its engineers fine-tuned the parameters for every single PCI-Express card to provide system stability during high-speed graphics operation.

Under PEG Link, there are five settings for this unique function: auto, slow, normal, fast and faster, the company explains. The default setting is auto, which means the motherboard will automatically adjust for the correct frequency according to system configuration. For advanced users who demand more precise overclocking, they can select the other four settings to achieve the most suitable graphics card performance.
