Gigabyte has announced the launch of the G31 Series Motherboards based on the Intel G31 chipset. These motherboards use Gigabyte Dynamic Energy Saver technology, and deliver huge power savings and better power efficiency for the computers.
The company offers two models in this series - GA-EG31M-S2 and GA-EG31MF-S2. The former has Ultra Durable2 design for its CPU Voltage Regulator Module (VRM). This ensures better cooling, lower power loss and longer lifespan for computers in daily operation, and boosts system stability even under extreme conditions.
"Gigabyte Dynamic Energy Saver Series Motherboards are able to provide exceptional power savings of up to 70% improved power efficiency, without sacrificing computing performance, our entry model GA-EG31M-S2 is DES compliant," said Rajan Sharma, general manager (MB and VGA BU) of Gigabyte India.
According to a Gigabyte communique, these motherboards are compatible with high-end processors including Intel Core 2 multi-core and 45nm processors. The motherboards come equipped with dual Channel DDR2 800 memory.
These also have the Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100 that supports Microsoft DirectX 9.0 and Windows Vista Aero experience, which improves realism and delivers excellent graphics performance.
Armed with the SATA specification, the bus bandwidth of the G31 Series is now doubled from 1.5Gb/s to 3Gb/s. The Native Command Queuing specification enables out-of-order execution of commands for efficient retrieval of data.
The Gigabit network interface delivers a high-speed LAN connection with data transfer rates - up to 1000Mb/s, gearing you up for the broadband and streaming video era. Also, supported is the
IEEE1394 Fire Wire interface from Texas Instruments (TI). With transfer speeds of up to 400Mb/s, this new generation interface enhances PC connectivity with consumer electronics audio/video (A/V) appliances, and storage peripherals.
Gigabyte GA-EG31M-S2 is priced at Rs.5500, and Gigabyte GA-EG31MF-S2 is priced at Rs.6000. They are distributed in India by Avnet, Ingram Micro and Redington.
