Rectron - sole local distributor of the Gigabyte family of motherboards and graphics cards - has extended its line-up of AMD 780G-based motherboards to include the latest ATX form-factor, the Gigabyte GA-MA78G-DS3H.
"Like the award-winning GA-MA78GM-S2H, which has received high marks from many of the world media's top reviewers, the GA-MA78G-DS3H features the AMD 780G chipset, the first DirectX 10 integrated graphics processor (IGP) solution for the AM2+ platform, providing the ultimate in UMA graphics performance," says Tony Chiang-Lin, components business manager at Rectron.
"Based on the AMD 780G chipset, the Gigabyte GA-MA78G-DS3H offers outstanding future CPU headroom with support for AM2 Athlon processors as well as the latest AM2+ Phenom processors with ultra low latency, high bandwidth Hyper Transport 3.0 - or 5200MT/s -- technology."
At the heart of the Gigabyte GA-MA78G-DS3H lies the ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics core, featuring support for DirectX 10, Shader Model 4.0 and OpenGL2.0.
"With its IGP overclocking ability, the Gigabyte GA-MA78G-DS3H can boost the GPU frequency up to 950MHz, delivering unprecedented UMA graphics performance with a 3DMARK06 score of 2000 or higher," says Chiang-Lin.
"The AMD 780G meets the HDCP specification for output protection management and security specifications of the latest Blu-Ray media format. Featuring support for ATI universal video decoder (UVD) technology and ATI Avivo technology, the Gigabyte GA-MA78G-DS3H provides the highest levels of picture clarity at resolution up to Full HD 1080P for fine image quality and smooth playback."
High-definition multimedia support is carried throughout the Radeon HD 3200 outputs, which include D-Sub, DVI, and HDMI to support numerous monitors.
"The Gigabyte GA-MA78G-DS3H also provides an additional PCI-E 2.0 x16 graphics interface and a PCI-E2.0 x4 expansion slot to support the groundbreaking ATI Hybrid Graphics technology, allowing users to combine the power of their integrated ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics core by adding an additional discrete graphics card, for enhanced 3D gaming performance, productivity and power efficiency," he adds.
"The Gigabyte GA-MA78G-DS3H is equipped with the built-in high-definition 7.1 + 2 channel Realtek ALC889A audio chip, whose 106dB signal-to-noise ratio significantly reduces noise during signal transmission, creating an incredible home theatre entertainment experience. The GA-MA78G-DS3H also features the highest quality components including a solid capacitor design for the CPU VRM, providing ultimate system stability and reliability."
Supported ATI Hybrid Graphics Technologies
ATI Hybrid CrossFireX - Both integrated and discrete graphics simultaneously work together to boost 3D graphics performance up to 70%, unleashing faster frame rates to take gaming to a whole new level (with ATI Radeon HD 2400 and 3400 series VGA cards).
ATI SurroundVIew - Provides support for four or more monitors with the addition of a discrete graphics card, allowing users to maximise their productivity.
