Gigabyte S1366 Intel X58 DDR3 ATX A L

Description

• Intel Core i7 processor and X58 chipset support

  The EX58-UD3R was designed specifically to take advantage of the raw power of the next generation Intel-« Core i7 processors and the Intel X58 Express chipset, evolution in computing architecture is able to deliver an amazing performance break through from past processor generations. Replacing the Front Side Bus is the Quick Path Interconnect, or QPI, whose 25.6 GB/sec transfer rate (double the bandwidth of the 1600MHz FSB) eliminates the communication bottleneck between the processor and chipset.

• Integrated memory controller

  Intel Core i7 processors feature the memory controller integrated directly into the processor die, rather than as part of the North bridge as in previous generations, allowing for faster memory performance. Core i7 processors also provide additional memory support including.

• Intel Turbo Boost technology

  Dynamically reroutes power to improve performance For situations when all cores are not needed for a particular workload, Intel Turbo Boost technology powers down the idle cores and dynamically reroutes the power to the active cores, boosting their performance without wasting power. This allows the active cores to achieve significant overclocks.

• ATI CrossFireX

  With support for ATI CrossFireX, Gigabyte pushes the envelope once again by delivering highly optimized performance and flexibility demanded by power users and extreme gaming enthusiasts. Designed to provide unmatched multi-GPU support with dual PCI Express connectivity, the GA-EX58-UD3R allows users to take advantage of the ultra smooth 3D rendering, blazing-fast frame rates and enhanced visual quality possible with a dual graphics card solution.

• Ultra Durable 3 classic

  Gigabyte Ultra Durable 3 classic design, featuring 2 ounces of copper for both the Power and Ground layers which dramatically lowers system temperature by delivering a more efficient spreading of heat from critical areas of the motherboard such as the CPU power zone throughout the entire PCB. A 2oz Copper layer design also provides improved signal quality and lower EMI (Electromagnetic Interference), providing better system stability and allowing for greater margins for overclocking.

• 2X lower impedance

  In addition, doubling the amount of copper lowers the PCB impedance by 50%. Impedance is a measure of how much the circuit impedes the flow of current. The less the flow of current is impeded, the less amount of energy is wasted. For Gigabyte Ultra Durable 3 classic motherboards, this means total PCB electrical waste is reduced by 50%, which also means less heat is generated. 2 ounces of copper also provides improved signal quality, providing better system stability and allowing for greater margins for overclocking.

• Dynamic energy saver advanced

  Gigabyte dynamic energy saver advanced provides better energy saving capabilities and enhanced system performance. Gigabyte dynamic energy saver advanced is the world's only motherboard energy saving technology with hardware-based Dynamic 4-Gear Switching. Gigabyte has also retooled dynamic energy saver to allow overclockers to experience the benefits of multi-gear power phase switching while overclocking, providing ultra stable, ultra smooth overclocking performance.

• DualBIOS - patented dual hardware BIOS protection

  DualBIOS is a Gigabyte patented technology that automatically recovers BIOS data when main BIOS has crashed or failed. Featuring 2 physical BIOS ROMs integrated onboard, Gigabyte DualBIOS allows quick and seamless recovery from BIOS damage or failure due to viruses or improper BIOS updating.

• Hardware OverVoltage control IC - enabling extreme overclocking

  Gigabyte hardware overvoltage control ICs featuring more voltage control options than before for the CPU North Bridge and memory. The overvoltage controllers also provide hardware linear real-time voltage control, which means there is no delay compared to the GPIO controller in past implementations. In addition, Gigabyte's hardware overvoltage controller ICs also allow for much finer voltage control, allowing power users to adjust voltage in as little increments as 20mV for better overclocking performance.

• EasyTune6

  Gigabyte has completely redesigned EasyTune6 from the ground up to make it easier than ever to manage and monitor your hardware resources as well as tweak your system settings in order to achieve maximum system performance. Whether you are an overclocking enthusiast, or a computer novice, EasyTune6 provides the tools you need to quickly and effortlessly fine tune your system.
