Leading IT infrastructure distributor, Axiz has announced the immediate availability of the new ASUS AI Lifestyle Series motherboard - M2N32-SLI Deluxe - which provides dual-channel DDR2 support on AMD`s latest AM2 processing platform to dramatically increase memory and overall system performance. Teamed with ASUS-developed Stack Cool fan-less cooling and 8-Phase Power Design, the new motherboards are tailored to offer quiet and reliable systems.
Kobus de Beer, ASUS product manager at Axiz, says the M2N32-SLI Deluxe is based on AMD`s new AM2 Socket processor and will be the first AMD solution to support the dual-channel DDR2 architecture, which provides higher memory frequency and bandwidth for overall performance improvement over previous AMD CPU platforms.
The motherboard supports dual-graphics card operation to run the most video resource-hungry applications. The M2N32-SLI Deluxe (NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI MCP chipset) motherboard comes equipped with two PCI Express x16 slots for Nvidia`s SLI (Scalable Link Interface) graphics interface, allowing two identical SLI-applicable graphics cards to run simultaneously.
Compared with dual-PCI Express x8, dual-PCI Express x16 delivers up to a 10% performance hike to boosts image quality along with rendering speed, eliminating the need to lower screen resolutions to attain high quality image. Whether it`s watching movies, 3D gaming or graphics design, the M2N32-SLI Deluxe can handle with ease.
"AI Lifestyle Series brings lifestyle and personal computing together," say De Beer. "It provides better system performance for graphics-intensive applications such as 3D games, while delivering cutting-edge audio features that dramatically enhance the quality of voice signal."
Its 8-Phase Power design delivers steadier power supply for the CPU by generating less heat than conventional power solutions and providing a cool computing environment for stable performance and higher over-clocking margin.
It reduces input ripple current and output ripple voltage, preventing the CPU and power modules from the risk of high power stress.
With AI Nap, users can instantly "relax" their PCs without terminating current tasks. System will continue to operate at minimum power and noise when users are temporarily away. It downloads files and run applications at the quietest state while users are asleep. Simply click on the mouse to wake up the system in seconds.
To balance system performance and silent computing, AI Gear enables users to choose from profiles to adjust CPU frequency and vCore voltage, minimising system noise and power consumption.
The M2N32-SLI Deluxe bundled the sophisticated Array Microphone. While recording, the microphone receives only the sound coming from the reception cone and ignores the sound coming from other directions, eliminating a large number of interferences including neighbouring speakers and reverberations. It also features "Echo Cancellation Technology", which eliminates the annoying echo during audio and voice applications.
