The remarkable thing about ASUS P4P800 mainboard is the fact that ASUS engineers allegedly managed to enable PAT technology in it, which is a prerogative of a more expensive i875P chipset. However, ASUS had to give up these attractive statements under Intel’s inevitable pressure later on, there is just a short mention of some HyperPath technology on their web-site right now. Let’s take a look at the description of this mysterious HyperPath technology:
HyperPath provides a short cut for data transfer between the CPU and memory by bypassing redundant mechanisms included in conservative chipset designs. The ASUS innovation significantly shortens latency time and enhances performance without sacrificing stability. Before implementing the advanced technology, ASUS' engineering team conducted thorough and stringent tests to strike a perfect balance between performance and reliability.
