ABIT Engineering Intros New Technologies Run faster and cooler with OC Strips and OTES AeroFlow? Taipei, Taiwan, July 13th 2004 ? From the venerable SoftMenu? technology which started the jumperless revolution, to µGuru? interactive system management and, most recently, Guru Clock external hardware monitoring, ABIT Engineering has changed what people have come to expect from a motherboard. Now, ABIT is proud to announce two new innovations, both designed to enhance the computing experience ? OC strips and OTES AeroFlow?.
Extreme Mobo Cooling ? OC Strips When it comes to overclocking, heat is your worst enemy. Running components beyond specifications generates heat that can cause the system to crash or lock up. To that end, ABIT has developed OC Strips that are placed directly on the motherboard PCB. These OC strips help to efficiently dissipate heat, which means increased stability in extreme overclocking conditions. ABIT has also integrated a large amount of copper between each PCB layer. Copper, a material with three times the heat transfer of aluminum, gives ABIT boards added stability under stressing conditions.
Maximum Northbridge Cooling ? OTES AeroFlow Traditional northbridge cooling generally comes as a passive heatsink or an active fan that blows air straight down onto the northbridge chip.
ABIT?s new OTES AeroFlow will change what people think about stock northbridge cooling. Developed to compliment the new heatsink and fan design for LGA775 CPUs, OTES AeroFlow features a vertically mounted fan. This fan enables the OTES Aeroflow to not only chill the northbridge, but also simultaneously cool a number of onboard devices, including the VGA card, southbridge, and also the memory. The result being cooler components and a cooler system for better overclocking and bulletproof stability.
OC Strips and OTES AeroFlow: two more ABIT Engineered innovations from the industry?s leading maker of performance motherboards and graphics cards.
