The G1.Assassin 2 motherboard is designed with one purpose; to equip you with the most potent technology available today including the very latest Intel X79 enthusiast processor platform, ruthless multiple discrete graphics card support and dedicated onboard audio and network processing that will take your 3D gaming experience to entirely new heights.
The G1.Assassin 2 is the newest member of the GIGABYTE G1-Killer series of gaming motherboards which have been designed from the ground up to provide the edge in a close 3D gaming contest. Precision is the watch word in all areas of the motherboard’s design, with as much attention to detail paid to the motherboards aesthetic qualities as to its technical prowess.
Super Sight - 3-way CrossFireX, 3-way SLI and PCI Express Gen.3 SupportThe GIGABYTE G1.Assassin 2 is equipped to help extreme gamers see the enemy from distance, regardless of how bloody the battlefield, offering the utmost graphics flexibility and upgradeability with 3-way AMD CrossFireX and NVIDIA SLI multiple GPU support. The GIGABYTE G1.Assassin 2 motherboard delivers maximum FPS (frames per second), allowing gamers to see more clearly, aim faster, and move more quickly. The GIGABYTE G1.Assassin 2 is also fully configured to provide gamers with the latest Gen.3 PCI Express technology, delivering maximum data bandwidth for forthcoming discrete graphics cards. (PCIe Gen. 3 is dependent on CPU and expansion card compatibility.)
Super Shield - Locked and Loaded Heatpipe and 5 Smart Fan ConnectorsThe GIGABYTE G1.Assassin 2 features a redesigned distinctive signature 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 2 remains cool, even when the battle heats up. To further help eliminate heat in the field of war, five Smart Fan pin headers which allow for precise cooling fan control, have been strategically placed around the board. Each fan can take advantage of its own thermal sensor and can also be controlled by via GIGABYTE's EasyTune 6 utility as well as within the UEFI BIOS.
Super Hearing - Onboard Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Digital Audio Processor (20K2)GIGABYTE has rigged the G1.Assassin 2 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. Built-in front audio headphone amplifier is able to drive 150O loads to deliver a fuller range of dynamic crisp sound when using high quality professional headphones. Other Super Hearing features include Nichicon high-end MUSE ES series and MW series Bi-Polarized audio capacitors at each channel layout for highest quality sound resolution and sound expansion and EMI and Power Interference Shielding for a distortion-free audio listening experience. All these innovations deliver 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 2 motherboard. Utilizing a unique combination of dedicated Network Processing Unit (NPU) with 1Gb of dedicated DDR2 memory and exclusive Killer Network Manager software, the Bigfoot Networks Killer E2100 is designed to provide the best online experience possible for online gamers. Bigfoot Advanced Stream Detect is at the heart of Killer Networking Platform, intelligently prioritizing important streams, such as games, HD video, video chat and high-quality streaming audio. With Visual Bandwidth Control, users have the power to adjust bandwidth for ANY network stream. Download files, play online games or even watch a video all at the same time – it's all possible now with the Killer E2100 Game Networking Platform.
GIGABYTE 3D PowerGIGABYTE X79 series motherboards are the first to take advantage of the exclusive GIGABYTE 3D Power, an all-new hardware and software-based Digital Power Engine for both the PWM and Memory that delivers unprecedented power delivery control. Users can now enjoy a fully interactive 3D utility that facilitates adjustment of the 3 dimensions that control the power delivery to your CPU and Memory: Voltage, Phase and Frequency. These parameters are crucial to how the digital PWM supplies power to critical areas of the motherboard and can help users quickly obtain the highest, most stable overclock.
GIGABYTE 3D BIOSThe revolutionary GIGABYTE 3D BIOS application is based on the new GIGABYTE UEFI DualBIOS technology and is available to consumers in two new exclusive modes of interaction never before seen in a BIOS environment. GIGABYTE's exclusive 3D mode offers a fully interactive and illustrative GUI that allows users to easily and intuitively make key adjustments to the UEFI BIOS settings for optimum performance. And the advanced mode provides a more comprehensive UEFI BIOS environment that is designed specifically for overclockers and power users who want maximum control over their PC's hardware. GIGABTYE's signature M.I.T. tuning technology can be found alongside fully configurable parameters for GIGABTE's all new digital 3D Power engine.
