Intel® Smart Response Technology

Faster Access, Bigger Storage Intel® Smart Response Technology boosts overall system performance. It uses an installed fast SSD (min 18.6GB available) as a cache for frequently accessed operations, speeding up hard drive/main memory interaction. Key benefits are expedited hard drive speeds, reduced load and wait times and maximized storage utilization. Power consumption also goes down by reducing unnecessary hard drive spin, an important part of Green ASUS eco-friendly computing

Youd only be waiting for the next thing Teaz and wished youd waited for that :D

Same old same old, just be pleased that when you get your next PC, there'll be a hell of a lot more Zs, Xs and numbers in the title of the Mobo you get :D

we are just working on the settings. For new boards that we intend using for overclocking we need to give em a good test.

how to enable caching

i was reading that to enable caching you must set up a raid config so if purchasing one of these boards which raid option should you choose thanks

and i completely missed the point of your question.

You are right there is no option that applies here in RAID as it does need setting up in BIOS and will negate other RAID options. Will look into this, any orders that want this setting up should put a note on their order or otherwise contact us.

Plz get this on the overclock build list before mine is built :)

In fact, I'll test it for you. Build me an overclocked i5k on a Z board, and if it remains stable, I'll keep it. My original spec has been posted :D

PS don't mind using Raid, but not mirrored, waste of space.

Available on overclock orders now

Seems it's available now as an option for overclocked builds.

Just changed my spec :)

Glad I caught it in time!
