Super Sight - 4-way CrossFireX and 3-way SLI SupportThe ability to see clearly through the fog of war can often tip the balance between the winning or losing force. That is why GIGABYTE has equipped the G1.Assassin motherboard with 4x PCI-E 2.0 x16 slots (2x16, 2x8) to offer utmost graphics flexibility and upgradeability. With multiple GPU support, GIGABYTE G1.Assassin motherboard delivers maximum FPS (Frames per Second), allowing gamers to see more clearly, aim faster, and move more quickly.
Super Hearing - Onboard Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Digital Audio Processor (20K2)GIGABYTE has rigged the G1.Assassin motherboard with Creative's top-of-the-line Sound Blaster Digital Audio Processor (20K2) onboard with X-Fi Xtreme Fidelity and EAX Advanced HD 5.0 technologies, allowing you to experience sound in your gaming world exactly as you would in real life. Other Super Hearing features include Dolby Digital Live, DTS Connect, built-in front audio headphone amplifier, and Nichicon high-end MUSE ES series and MW series Bi-Polarized audio capacitors at each channel layout. All these innovations deliver the highest quality sound resolution and sound expansion to create the most realistic sound effects for professional gamers.
Super Speed - Onboard Bigfoot Networks Killer E2100GIGABYTE seriously address online gaming network lag issues by implementing the Bigfoot Networks Killer E2100 Game Networking Platform directly onboard the G1.Assassin. Utilizing a unique combination of dedicated Network Processing Unit (NPU) with 1Gb of dedicated DDR2 memory and exclusive Game Networking DNA technology, the Bigfoot Networks Killer E2100 Game Networking Platform was designed to give the best online gaming experience possible.
Super Shield - Locked and Loaded Heatpipe and 5 Smart Fan ConnectorsThe GIGABYTE G1.Assassin features a brand new heatpipe that was designed to be as deadly to heat as it looks. By effectively spreading the heat from the critical areas of the motherboard such as the CPU VRM zone and quickly dissipating it, the G1.Assassin remains cool, even when the battle heats up. Further helping eliminate heat are the 5 strategically placed Smart Fan pin headers which allow for more precise control of system and CPU fans. Equipped with their own individual thermal sensors, the Smart Fans can be easily controlled via GIGABYTE’s EasyTune 6 utility as well as in the BIOS.
Maximum CPU Power Delivery & Driver MOS FETsLike the pistons and cylinders of a car engine, the design of the motherboard Voltage Regulator Module (VRM), component quality and number of power phases greatly affects motherboard performance. With 16 phase power design, Dual CPU Power and Driver MOSFETs, GIGABYTE G1.Assassin promises to deliver first class system performance and power stability required for elite gaming systems. With only the best quality components and unique design, incorporating Dual Power Switching and Power Phase Boost with Multi-gear Switching, your CPU can enjoy more unadulterated power from the motherboard than from previous motherboards.
