Asus M4A78 PLUS Motherboard Atx Am3 Skt 770 Sb700 4dimm 5 Sata Gig Ethernet Spdif

MBD ATX AM3 SKT 770 SB700 4DIMM 5 SATA GETH SPDIF
To fully unleash the next-generation AM3 CPU's potential, the ASUS M4 series motherboards have adopted an 8-phase VRM power design. It delivers high power efficiency and supreme overclocking ability. Furthermore, high quality power components can effectively lower system temperature to ensure longer component lifespan. This series also features an extra 1 phase power dedicated to integrated memory/HT controller. The motherboard supports the next-generation hard drives based on the Serial ATA (SATA) 3Gb/s storage specification, delivering enhanced scalability and doubling the bus bandwidth for high-speed data retrieval and saves. The external SATA port located at the back I/O provides smart setup and hot-plug functions.
