Esatto, 'PEG Link Mode is just another way of overclocking the graphics card'.
>>PEG Link Mode enables powerful video performance on DX8 and DX9 applications. ASUS engineers carefully fine-tuned the parameters for every single PCI-Express card to provide system stability during high-speed graphics operation.
Under PEG Link, there are five settings for this unique function: Auto, Slow, Normal, Fast and Faster. The default setting is Auto, which means the motherboard will automatically adjust for the correct frequency according to system configuration. For advanced users who demand more precise overclocking, they can select the other four settings to achieve the most suitable graphics card performance

>>And while they claim that it works with all PCI Express cards, so far only ATI graphics cards seem to be affected by this BIOS feature.>>
Secondo Gigabyte, noto concorrente di Asus:
>>"When it came to Asus' P5AD2 Premium board - based on the i925X - Gigabyte claims an investigation of the board's BIOS revealed a setting called 'PEG Link Mode'.
"This setting clandestinely overclocks the frequency of memory and core engines of ATI-based PCI-Express graphics," Gigabyte's memo claims. "It was also found that 'PEG Link Mode' is not an enhancement feature for the motherboard, as it provides enhancement only to the graphics card's memory and core engine frequency, ostensibly with the sole purpose to obtain higher benchmark results on 3D graphics".
Gigabyte alleges that Asus did not tell reviewers that it had enabled 'PEG Link Mode' or told buyers that their ATI graphics cards would automatically be overclocked.
>>
>>There's perhaps less of an issue here if all P5AD2 Premium boards ship with the graphics enhancing mode since the tests will represent users' experience of off-the-shelf products.
Even so, it's still questionable behaviour - on any product maker's part - to overclock one or more components of a user's system without the user's knowledge.
