asus sabertooth x58 intel extreme tuning utility

For users that dual boot Windows XP with another operating system installed in AHCI mode, this means changing to IDE mode every time to boot into Windows XP and changing back to SATA to boot the other OS, or installing the other OS which supports AHCI also in IDE mode to prevent switching the setting in the BIOS each time. Windows XP can be installed in IDE mode but without SATA features enabled. The X79 chipset does not support installing Windows XP in AHCI mode for Intel's Serial ATA controllers as Intel won't release AHCI drivers for 32-bit Windows XP. Newer Core and Xeon processors address 40 PCI Express 3.0 lanes directly through Sandy Bridge-E architecture (Xeon) and Ivy Bridge architecture (Core processors). The added pins allow for more PCI Express lanes and interconnects for server class processors. The X79 chipset is made to work with the Intel LGA 2011 (Socket R) which features 2011 copper pins. 8-layer printed circuit board (PCB), 2 oz copper recommended.Supports Intel Extreme Tuning Utility 3.0 (XTU).Supports processor, memory and chipset overclocking.Optional Intel Rapid Storage Technology enterprise 3.0.Integrated Gigabit Ethernet MAC (Lewisville PHY).14 Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 ports.2× Serial ATA (SATA) 3.0 (6Gbit/s) ports & 4x SATA 2 (3Gbit/s) ports.The first product was announced on November 14, 2011, for 'Extreme' CPUs using the LGA 2011 socket.
