MSI X79A-GD65 (8D)

Motherboard exclusively designed for the new high-end processors Intel Sandy Bridge-E. It features the Intel X79 chipset, which replaces the X58 platform thus taking the scepter of the most powerful chipset for desktop computers. The combination of this motherboard, processor from Intel Sandy Bridge-E and X79 chipset, Intel will provide you with an unprecedented performance, native support for the interface of the new generation PCI Express 3.0 and the use of working memory in 4-channel engagement!
Model X79A-GD65 (8D) is designed for users who need for their work superior computing power, huge amounts of RAM (theoretically be fitted with up to 128 GB), enormous graphics performance based on a multi-GPU SLI or CrossFireX solution (available A total of 3 16linkové PCI Express 3.0), broad expansion of internal data storage (4 SATA III + 2 SATA II ports natively supported chipset with RAID 0/1/5/10) and optional external interfaces including dual digital audio output and FireWire port.
The added value of a particular model depends on a wide range of unique features and functions directly from the manufacturer. Devotees increase performance with extreme overclocking will use the V-check points for the direct measurement of voltage, dual 12V power connectors, durable and reliable capacitors Hi-c CAP or Multi-BIOS. For beginners "overclockers" will be appropriate special features OC Genie II or Direct OC and everyone else during normal operation will appreciate the technology APS (Active Phase Switching) conducive to energy saving or Super Charger promising to 3 times faster recharging of mobile devices.
