DFI lancia le motherboard BI P45-T2(R)S pensate per l'overclock

Con le nuove BI P45-T2RS Elite e BI P45-T2S Elite il board maker DFI ha annunciato una linea di motherboard mainstream progettate espressamente per l'operatività in overclock, con l'intento di proporre delle soluzioni in grado di offrire agli utenti un elevato livello prestazione, pur essendo accompagnate da un costo contenuto (l'MSRP è inferiore alla soglia dei $110, ndr).

Entrambe le motherboard sono basate sul chipset Intel P45 e supportano le cpu Intel Core2 Extreme/ Quad/ Duo, con socket LGA-775 e FSB fino a 1333MHz, e le memorie RAM DDR2 operanti ad una frequenza pari a 667/800/1066MHz. La BI P45-T2RS Elite include, a differenza della BI P45-T2S Elite, il supporto della modalità RAID.

Tra le porte di I/O segnaliamo la dotazione di uno slot PCI-Express x16 e di 6 connettori SATA II mentre tra le tecnologie incluse nella linea BI P45-T2(R)S Elite si fanno notare il bios Genie, che prevede la possibilità di operare in modalità differenti ("Amateur mode" e "Expert mode") in funzione delle quali sono resi disponibili setting di setup molto diversi, orientati in un caso alla stabilità operativa e all'overclock nell'altro, e l'Auto Boost System (ABS), che permette l'overclock del processore durante la fase di boot semplicemente con la pressione di un tasto.

LANParty (DFI), Taipei, 2009/05/12 - From now on, amazing performance becomes available on affordable motherboards. In addition to the development of high-end overclocking motherboards that set world record in performance, the LANParty team has recently committed to a research program called "top performance at affordable prices", allowing more consumers to enjoy low-price yet high-performance motherboards.

The BI P45-T2(R)S Elite family is the first wave of the "top performance at affordable prices" series. High-end hardware layouts, excellent BIOS design, and ex-factory overclocking stress test are totally migrated to the product. With the price under USD $110, it can surprisingly challenge $150-level products in terms of performance.

Based on Intel P45 chipsets, the BI P45-T2(R)S Elite family is compatible with LGA775 CPU. The 600MHz bus speed outperforms other products in the same price range. Moreover, the "Amateur mode" is also introduced to the BIOS options. With the simplified options in the amateur mode, users looking for stability can finish the setup in minutes. Meanwhile, the overclocking users can simply press the F9 hot key to switch to the "Expert mode" and pursue superior performance.

The product helps users save money not only on motherboards but also on CPU. Through ABS II auto overclocking technology, all CPUs can be upgraded automatically. In other words, users who choose the BI P45-T2(R)S Elite can enjoy the performance of high-end CPUs with the cost of low-end CPUs.

With strict O.C. test, the BI P45-T2(R)S Elite guarantees the operation stability under the normal frequency. It is absolutely the best choice for DIY users as an entry-level system. For users who want to practice overclocking skills but don’t have enough budgets, the BI P45-T2(R)S Elite is definitely a stepping stone to the overclocking world.
