Gigabyte Debuts Motherboard with Ultra Durable 3 Technology
Gigabyte Technology announces the new GIGABYTE GA-EG 45M -UD2H powered by the Intel® G45 Express chipset. Featuring the GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 3 Technology with 2 ounces of copper for both the Power and Ground layers, the GA-EG 45M -UD2H is able to provide dramatically lower system temperatures and improved energy efficiency, and combined with a rich array of multi-media connectivity options, promises to deliver an exceptional high-definition video and audio experience for the latest high-definition digital multimedia systems. Doubling the amount of copper provides a more effective thermal cooling solution by delivering a more efficient spreading of heat from critical areas of the motherboard such as the CPU power zone throughout the entire PCB. In fact, GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 3 motherboards are able to deliver up to 50°C cooler working temperatures than traditional motherboards.
The GIGABYTE GA-EG 45M -UD2H supports the powerful and energy efficient Intel multi-core processors up to FSB 1600MHz (by OC), including the latest Intel 45nm processors, and also offer support for high speed DDR2 1066 (by OC) memory, making them the highest value Microsoft® Window VistaTM Premium capable motherboards available. Utilizing a 4 phase power design featuring Japanese Solid Capacitors from leading manufacturers, Ferrite Core Chokes and Lower RDS (on) MOSFETs, users are ensured maximum upgradability through its future-proof design and longer system durability. It is equipped with a wide range of connectivity options including D-sub and DVI, as well as support for HDMI. In addition to featuring support for Intel® Clear VideoTM technology for unprecedented picture clarity and smooth video playback, the GA-EG 45M -UD2H allows for playback of HD content up to 1080P, with full support for HDCP for Blu-RayTM HD content. It is also equipped with the built-in High-Definition 7.1 + 2 channel Realtek ALC 889A sound chip, whose 106dB Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) significantly reduces noise during signal transmission and supports Blu-ray playback for an exhilarating home theater entertainment experience.
GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 3 motherboards are equipped with solid capacitors developed by leading Japanese manufacturers. With an average lifespan of 50,000 hours, these solid capacitors provide the stability, reliability and longevity essential to meet the meet the power needs of high-end processors and other components running today's most demanding applications and games. DualBIOSTM 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 DualBIOSTM allows quick and seamless recovery from BIOS damage or failure due to viruses or improper BIOS updating. In addition, GIGABYTE has also included the powerful Dolby Home Theater® suite of audio technologies, which deliver a vivid surround sound listening experience for music, movies, and games using two to eight speakers or any set of headphones.
