Taipei, Taiwan, August 6, 2008 –GIGABYTE UNITED INC., a leading manufacturer of motherboards and graphics cards, today is pleased to announce their flagship X48 Series motherboards including the GA-X48T-DQ6, GA-X48-DQ6, GA-X48-DS5 and GA-X48-DS4, now fully support the next generation energy saving technology, Dynamic Energy Saver Advanced (DES Advanced). Designed with advanced users in mind, GIGABYTE Dynamic Energy Saver Advanced is equipped with several new features that deliver more power savings, even while overclocking.
The GIGABYTE X48 Series supports Intel® Core 2™ multi-core processors including the latest Intel 45nm CPUs. Based on the Intel® X48 chipset, the GIGABYTE X48 Series provides record setting 1600MHz Front Side Bus support and offers flexible memory support options including up to 1600MHz native DDR3 2000MHz memory support with the GA-X48T-DQ6 and up to DDR2 1200MHz support with the GA-X48-DQ6, GA-X48-DS5 and GA-X48-DS4. The GIGABYTE X48 Series is further equipped to support ATI CrossFireX™ Technology with dual PCI-E 2.0 (x16, x16) interfaces, delivering double the PCI Express bandwidth of 5 5Gbps for the ultimate in extreme gaming performance.
Multi-gear Power Phase Switching During Overclocking
Automatically adjusts the energy saving settings to allow power users to play, while at the same time, take advantage of DES Advanced efficient power phase switching.
Stealth Mode Power Savings
Allow users to turn on or off the DES Advanced utility completely, while still experiencing the hardware-based energy saving benefits of DES Advanced.
Next Generation Energy Saving Technology: Dynamic Energy Saver Advanced
DES Advanced features improved algorithms that provide a more accurate power saving calculation for improved energy saving capabilities and enhanced overall system performance. The unique multi-gear power phase design of GIGABYTE's Dynamic Energy Saver Advanced allows for the most efficient switching of power phases depending on CPU workload. When the CPU work load is light or at idle, the Dynamic Energy Saver downshifts gears and only allows the minimum required power phases needed to accomplish the task to operate.
