DFI LANParty DKX58 Intel Core i7 Motherboard HD Video

Today DFI has stretched the boundaries with their executive LANParty DKX58 Nehalem Motherboard which supports LGA1366 socket CPUs from Intel's all-new Core-i7 processor range. This LANParty DKX58 motherboard has plenty of features that will allow you to tweak and fiddle until you have your system purring to your satisfaction. Like the Audio Realtech ALC889 chip and the LAN Chip, which is a Marvel 8053 and gives 15% better LAN speeds than other integrated chips. The Debug LED helps when things go wrong and 33 different codes to tell you exactly where the problem lies. The Power and rest buttons are also very convenient. The X58 chipset allows three graphic cards PCI 2.0 slots, for three-way SLI or CrossFireX setups, supporting a 16x, 16x, for 2 cards in tandem, or 16x 8x 8x for three-way SLI or CrossFireX DFI leave the MOSFET cooler exactly where it is needed, so it cannot be detached, but for the enthusiasts, they allow the Northbridge heatsink part to be removed, but not completely. There still remains a protective copper plate which can accept any kind of cooling device as needed. The copper plate conducts the very cold cooling from LN2 or dry ice directly to the MOSFETs through the specially sintered heatpipe, or alternatively offloads heat as needed. What should also be noted is that the Sintered heatpipe is very unique and not found on other brands of motherboard. It has much more liquid inside the pipe and with a thicker porous rim, it transfers heat in a very effective way, the same way that a sponge works when absorbing water. This allows the heatpipe to be oriented in any position and still work effectively. Next is the number of fan connectors to be found throughout the motherboard. In total 6 headers are available and each can be monitored directly through software in the BIOS. The digital PWM can be monitored and controlled to some degree via a GUI called Smart PWM in a windows. The motherboard automatically senses work load and activates 2 phases for idle load, and 6 phases under full load. ABS o...
