GA-EP45-DS3R (rev. 1.0)

GA-G41MT-ES2H motherboards paired with Intel 45nm CPUs deliver the very best platform for multitasking, multimedia and high performance gaming. Not only do GIGABYTE's latest motherboards based on Intel Eaglelake chipsets all support Intel's new generation, 45nm multi-core processors.

Delivering native support for DDR2 memory up to 1333MHz, GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 3 series motherboards allow users to easily reach higher memory frequencies at lower voltages; achieving higher memory performance with lower power consumption to run even the most memory intensive applications such as high-definition video and 3D games with ease.
* DDR2 1333+ is supported with combination of AM3 processors and qualified memory modules, please refer "Memory Support List" for detail memory support information.

PCI-E 2.0 doubles the bus standard's bandwidth from 2.5 Gbit/s to 5 Gbit/s, meaning a x32 connector can transfer data at up to 16 GB/s in each direction. PCI-E 2.0 also features improvements to the point-to-point data transfer protocol and its software architecture.

P55-US3L supporting ATI CrossFireX delivers the ultimate in graphics performance for gaming enthusiasts who demand the highest frame rates without compromising on resolution.

Dolby^® Home Theater는 스테레오 5.1 서라운드 채널 오디오를 6.1, 7.1 서라운드 채널로 전환하여 섬세한 서라운드 사운드를 제공한다. Dolby^® Headphone는 스테레오 헤드폰으로 5.1채널의 아날로그 음향을 감상할 수 있으며 또한 Sound Space Expander 기술은 사실과 같은 입체 음향과 공간감을 느끼게 해준다. Natural Bass 저음 기술은 음향시스템 스피커를 통해 더욱 힘찬 저주파수의 전율감을 느끼게 해준다. Dolby Digital Live는 PC음향을 언제든지 DolbyDigital 음향규격으로 인코딩하여 음향을 홈시어터 시스템으로 연결 및 출력시켜 준다.

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 6-Gear* Switching. With support for VRD 11.1, GIGABYTE's DES Advanced allows the motherboard to switch to 1 Gear phase switching during idle, allowing for a dramatic increase in power savings.

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.
* The 6-Gear feature may vary by model. Gear 1 phase switching requires 45nm processors with PSI signal enabled.

TPM function is optional due to different regional policy

• Maximum level of data protection with 2048 bit encryption
• Security, manageability and flexibility that surpasses software-based encryption
• Portable User Key to protect data when away from your system
• Additional backup of user key in BIOS in case of misplaced key

......TPM Configuration Procedure

• After creating the password(s) and key(s) associated the TPM, be sure to store them in a secure location and back them up. Loss of the password(s) or the key(s) will render the files encrypted via the TPM unable to be cracked or read.
• Though the TPM delivers the latest data security technology, it does not guarantee data integrity or give hardware protection. GIGABYTE is not liable for loss of encrypted data as a result of hardware damage.

(Note)If you want to uninstall the Ultra TPM utility, be sure to insert the USB flash drive containing the TPM key into your computer before the uninstallation.

High Velocity 2X Bandwidth Boost

Hardware Overvoltage Control ICs which provide more voltage control options than before for the CPU North Bridge and memory. The overvoltage controllers also provide hardware linear real-time voltage control. In addition, 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.

신세대 EasyTune 6의 경우, 기가바이트는 EasyTune의 인터페이스를 간결, 직관, 상세하게 표현했다. 이에 기존의 버전에 비해 어떤 사용자라도 각종 오버클럭 프로파일을 손쉽고 빠르게 조절할 수 있게 되었다. 또한 EasyTune™ 6은 보다 상세한 하드웨어 정보 디스플레이 항목이 있어서 오버클로킹을 하지 않아도 훌륭한 하드웨어관리 유틸리티이다.

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.

Ultra Cooling - Low RDS(on) MOSFET Design
Low RDS(on) MOSFETs specially designed to produce lower switching resistance for faster electric current charging and discharging.



Low Power Loss - Ferrite Core Choke Design
Ferrite core chokes comprised of a compound of iron oxide and other metal elements whose properties hold energy much longer than common iron core at high frequency.






Longer Life - All-Solid Capacitor Design
Solid capacitors contain a solid organic polymer, while electrolytic capacitors use a common liquid electrolyte, hence, the terms solid capacitor versus electrolytic capacitors.

GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 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 power needs of high-end processors and other components running today's most demanding applications and games...more


* 50000 hours of work time is calculated at 85℃ ambient temperature.
