Special Features

Suspend to RAM (STR): All tasks are stored in RAM and can be resumed within seconds from the minimum power consuming suspend mode.
Wake-on-LAN allows for remote network management and configuration of the PC, even in off-hours when the PC is turned off. This reduces the complexity of managing the network.
Onboard auto-switching power regulator supports CPU core voltages of from 1.3-3.5 volts
Three tachometer fan connectors (for CPU, chassis and thermal control fans)
Keyboard wake-up from Soft-Off
CPU frequency settings - changeable in BIOS setup
Connector for LED overheat indicator

First person to get a topic banned. ABIT BP6 Lives FOREVER!!!

Dammit, Spain has lost the AMD processor market, in fact it never had it.

Nowadays all the companies move their production facilities to countries where workers are paid less, it is much easier to pay 50 workers in China or Taiwan than paying 10 workers in the USA, the workers in the USA may go on a strike or complain about their salary, in the Asian countries the workers risk their jobs if they complain.

But the fact is that the quality is the same because products are designed and manufactured using the same technology in both places.

DAMN!

You just reminded me of The Hobbit! (No offence!)

"I´m Going Down!...Down!Down!Down!Down!Down!" - Joe Satriani in G3 Live

Aaachkk! That wreaks with stinkiosity!

Suicide is painless...........
