ECS P67H2-A Motherboard

Other Features

Other smaller features present at the P67H2-A include the presence of on-board power and reset buttons, POST diagnostics display (which shows the CPU temperature after the system correctly passed the POST testings), the use of 15µ gold contacts (usually motherboards use 5µ gold contacts), eJiffy (an operating system stored inside the motherboard read-only memory that allows you to access the Internet without needing to load the operating system or even without having a hard disk drive installed, being equivalent of ASUS’s Express Gate and MSI’s Winki), and voltage monitoring points, where you can read the CPU main voltage (labeled as “VCORE”), memory voltage (“DIMM”), CPU integrated memory controller voltage (VTT, labeled as “IMC”), chipset voltage (“PCH”), and clock multiplier voltage (“PLL”) using a multimeter. Phase-monitoring LEDs are available and we will talk about them in the next page.

This motherboard also features a legacy serial port (you need to acquire an adapter to use it).
