Tech Link (Digital Home): Asus* Goes Intel® Viiv™

More and more OEM and ODM are jumping into the next generation wave of Digital Home from Chipzilla. Asus*, a world reknown motherboard manufacturer just released a new motherboard that will be Intel® Viiv™-ready.

The motherboard model is Asus N4L-VM DH and for overclockers, having a motherboard from Asus* is like nirvana. And even more addition to the drool factor is that it supports Intel Core™ Duo and Core™ Solo Mobile CPU. If you aren't too much an AMDroid, then you'll know that Dothan eats everything in its path. The lack of SLI and Crossfire is the only holding factor why this baby isn't hitting the top marks in 3D benchmarks and can play against the top dog in almost all benchmarks known to man in the desktop world.

Anyway, back to the board, it has the following savory features:


  • Intel ViiV Technology

  • Support Intel Core™ Duo and Core™ Solo Mobile CPU

  • Support 65nm Dual-Core CPU

  • Intel 945GM chipset

  • Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950

  • Intel Gb LAN

  • High Definition Audio
