    -4 phase CPU power supply with the ability to deliver 170+ Amps
    -provision for passive, water block or active air cooled mosfets (heatsink form factor is the same as the northbridge)
    -voltage range to 2.7V but artificially clamped to 2.0V
    -voltage increments as fine as 20 mV

    Memory Power Delivery:
    -upto 30 Amps delivery potential
    -voltage range to 4.0V
    -voltage increments as fine as 20 mV
    -adjustable VTT (memory termination voltage) to +/- 10% of memory VDD

    NB Power Delivery:
    -NB core has it's own power rail with 4 discrete steps

    HT Power Delivery:
    - HT I/O has it's own power rail with 4 discrete steps

    PCI-E 1.2V Power Delivery:
    - PCI-E 1.2V I/O has it's own power rail with 4 discrete steps

    PCI-E 1.8V Power Delivery:
    - PCI-E 1.8V I/O has it's own power rail with 2 discrete steps

    Board Features:

    Onboard Devices:
    -twin Silicon Image SI3132 SATA II w/ NCQ chips connected via PCI-E, each chip providing 2 SATA ports. (8 SATA ports total; 4 are SATAI and 4 are SATAII w/NCQ)
    -Marvel Gigabit LAN connected via PCI-E
    -one general purpose single lane PCI-E slot (provisioned for 1 more single lane general purpose slot if one SI3132 is not populated as a build option)
    -Azalia audio support via SB450 using Realtek codec
    -POST code LED display
    -Firewire support with ViaVT6306
    -VGA and DVI outputs via Radeon Xpress 200G (enabling upto 4 monitor outputs using an ATI add in card and ATI Surroundview)

    -onboard VID code LED display

    Overclocking Options:
    -HTT frequency upto 500 MHz
    -All relevant memory timings and adjustments including support for new Rev E CPUs
    -HT link ratios X1, X2, X3, X4,X5
    -Independent PCI-E overclocking for the graphics bus

    Thermal Monitoring:
    -thermal monitoring of CPU power delivery circuitry, CPU, NB and ambient

    That's all I can remember for now.
