DFI has launched the Highest-end AMD quad-core platform now, the LANParty UT 790FX-M2R.

The platform entirely supports AMD’s Quad-core processor, Phenom (FX) series. 790FX provides the latest version of Hyper Transport 3.0 for accelerating the CPU; LP UT 790FX-M2R features the highest performance chipset 790FX and SB600 as the NB and SB. In addition, DFI brings you an ultra-performance OC platform with the utmost features such like Digital PWM, Bernstein Audio module and advance heat pipe + Transpiper.

Performance of a system greatly depends on the coordination between its processor and motherboard. Motherboard is the single most significant of them all. While AMD is about to launch their highest-end quad core CPU, the Phenom series, LANParty UT 790FX-M2R is the perfect optimized platform for the series. In enthusiast’s world, most of them agree that the high overclock ability is the biggest feature that AMD processors have been created with Phenom is the real quad core CPU as is in its physical structure. It is the ever-best results from AMD’s long term development. It overclocks with better reliability and lower power consumption.

Merged with ATI, AMD is now showing its muscle-790FX to the public. It is a cutting-edge technical show case from both AMD and ATI. It supports a new powerful technology, the “3-way CrossFire”. From now on, DFI 790FX can support a total of 3 CrossFire VGA cards at the same system anytime. By the way, the PCIE2.0 provides a faster and wider bandwidth between GPUs, and it can push the maximum speed up to 16GB/s. Besides, each of PCIE2.0 slots can supply a higher voltage then ever. The highest grade VGA cards such like ATI 2900 also have very solid power supporting capacity now, and they surely support the earlier PCIE 1.0 too. This is such a good news to all gamers.

LANParty UT 790FX-M2R provides a brand new FSB technology, the Hyper Trsansport3.0, which maximizes the bandwidth up to 41.6GB/s. This is a very significant functionality while CrossFire is at working. It needs a wider and faster bandwidth to accelerate the data transportation.

The digital PWM has been surely a powerful feature for CPU’s power supplying since DFI firstly introduced it to enthusiast world. The PWM that LANParty UT 790FX features this time is quite different to others. It is a 7-phase PWM, which contains 6-phase for processor and a particularly 1-phase for Northbridge. The extra 1-phase PWM is an independent electricity power to support Northbridge. That makes the overclocking ability more flexible in voltage options.

DFI’s Bernstein audio module is the new feature that demonstrates the excellent on-board audio quality of LANParty UT 790FX-M2R. The board is innovatively with many new features and more advanced than those of Karajan's. In addition, it is relocated to the PCI slot vicinity for easy mounting. Now it achieves a perfect noise reduction than the previous models. Everybody knows that Pro-gamers or power users want the best quality for their output devices; certainly the noise reduction feature is the answer. It is noteworthy that LANParty UT 790FX-M2R’s Bernstein audio has two different versions that base on RealTek’s ALC888T high definition codec. One of the versions has separated VIOP function as an isolated card. The main benefit of it is that you can use any of your traditional desk telephone for PC to PC or, PC to Telephone Skype communication; it is supported by Realtek ALC888T’s design. With such a feature, you don’t have to purchase an extra USB phone when you need talking through Skype.

DFI LP UT 790FX-M2R has equipped the powerful weapon ”Transpiper” too; a heat pipe sub- assembly, an extended design from Southbridge, Northbridge and now to PWM. The design of it is unique to any others in market. The, Transpiper servers as an extension joint to carry the heat out from the chassis. The Transpiper can be extended to the outside of the PSU fan. So that can carry out the heat from the Transpiper. This is magnificent technical breakthrough that takes the heat out of the chassis to prevent system overheat. These certainly increase the stability. Last, but not the least the thermal paste that used in our board is an advance-level product for better heat –dissipation; DFI is generous and willing to spend the 4 times higher cost than others in market, to provide the best for our customer.
