Gigabyte Announces P4 Titan Series of Motherboard -- GA-8ITXE --Supporting Intel Pentium 4 478-pin Processor
Leading motherboard manufacturer, Gigabyte, announces the P4 Titan series motherboard 8ITXE, supporting 478-pin Pentium 4 processor that satisfies all your need in digital music, 3D gaming, digital imaging and video.
Based on Intel 850 Chipset, GA-8ITXE is designed to create a revolutionary architecture for Pentium 4 platform. Designed in Intel® Hub Architecture, 8ITXE can Increase I/O bus bandwidth allowing better concurrency for media-rich applications and multitasking. Dual channel Rambus DRAMs enpower 8ITXE to deliver 3.2 GB/s of memory bandwidth to the processor that balances platform support and provides the memory bandwidth necessary to extract full performance from the Intel Pentium 4 processor.Four RIMM memory slots provide up to 2GB Rambus DRAM size .ICH2, the Intel latest integrated peripheral controller, delivers twice the I/O bandwidth over traditional bridge architecture and provides dedicated data paths to fully optimize the additional bandwidth. The ICH2 makes a direct connection from the graphics and memory for faster access to peripherals; Dual Ultra ATA/100 controllers support the fastest IDE interface for transfers to storage devices. The AGP4X slot allows graphics controllers to access main memory at over 1 GB/s twice that of previous AGP platforms.
20 plating-gold pins for ATX power connector enable more stable and secure in power supply .One CNR slot and five PCI slots guarantee you the future expandability. AC97 codec enable great sound experience in a cost-effective way. Four USB connectors provide you full connection with additional peripherals. Ingenious design in CPU socket direction can not only efficiently lower CPU temperature but also effectively cool key components such as Mosfet, Rambus DRAM and capacitor. This plays an important role in delivering a stable and reliable desktop platform solution to support high frequency and best performance computer system.
Rich in overclocking functionalities, the system bus speed, frequency ratio and Vcore voltage now are adjustable from BIOS, which is ideal for those power user. Furthermore, the following patented technologies are the useful tools developed by Gigabyte:
1. Multilingual BIOS ? BIOS setup instruction available not only in English, also in Chinese, French, German, Spanish and Japanese.
2. Q-Flash Utility ? Flash BIOS is an inevitable step whenever system upgraded required. However, the complicated BIOS flash procedures always annoy the experience users. Q-Flash utility is another useful tool developed by Gigabyte. It even let you flash the BIOS easily without working in both Windows and DOS modes, just in compliance with the simple instructions in BIOS setup main menu.
3. DualBIOS??, EasyTuneIII ? and @BIOS? network BIOS update? Gigabyte?s unique DualBIOS technology reduces the chances of BIOS failure due to infection by virus. GA-8ITXE also incorporates EasyTuneIII, a Windows overclocking utility. EasyTune is a simple Window based software that allows the user to overclock their systems without the need to open up the PC casing. @BIOS is another Gigabyte?s network BIOS update tool. This tool allows the user to stay updated with the latest BIOS updates via the internet.
4. Face Wizard Utility ? Are you tired of seeing the monotonous boot up screen? With the Face Wizard utility supported by GA-8ITXE, you can create and edit your own feature boot up screen.
Foresees the PC revolutions in second half of 2001, GA-8ITXE is definitely worth your consideration in leading you keep pace with trends.
