ASUS Super Hybrid Engine Delivers Maximum Overclocking and Energy Efficiency
This innovative motherboard utilizes Intel's latest platform, and features the exclusive ASUS Super Hybrid Engine concept that encompasses the TurboV and EPU technologies to deliver the twofold benefits of overclocking and power efficiency. TurboV is an advanced overclocking application that enables easy overclocking without the need to exit or reboot the operating system; while the EPU automatically provides users exceptional power efficiency. Equipped with Super Hybrid Engine, users will enjoy the best overclocking environment and address environmental concerns at the same time.
Intel X58 Express Chipset
The new Intel X58 Express chipset is the first chipset to support the new Intel Core i7 Express and Core i7 processors. It also features the new Intel QuickPath Interconnect that provides a much faster interface between the CPU and the chipset using serial point-to-point links. It also supports up to 36 PCI Express 2.0 lanes.
Triple Channel DDR3 Support
The ASUS P6T Deluxe motherboard supports three channels of DDR3 memory, with official clock speeds of 800 MHz, 1066 MHz and 1333 MHz. It also supports an overclocked speed of 1600 MHz.
SLI Support Too!
The Intel X58 Express chipset comes with native support for ATI's CrossFireX Technology, which allows you to link up to four ATI graphics cards in multi-GPU mode. This is great for those who use ATI graphics cards but bad for those who prefer NVIDIA graphics cards.
Fortunately, ASUS added the NVIDIA nForce 200 SLI Processor to the P6T Deluxe. This allows the ASUS P6T Deluxe to support NVIDIA's competing SLI Technology as well as ATI CrossFireX. Great news for NVIDIA fans!
True 16+2 Phase Power Design
ASUS introduced their true 16+2 phase power design in the P6T Deluxe motherboard. What it really means is the VRM is designed with 16 power phases supplying the CPU with two additional power phases for the DRAM/QPI controller inside the CPU. Combined with the use of low RDS MOSFETs, ferrite core chokes and 100% Japanese conductive polymer capacitors, the 16+2 phase VRM design should ensure a longer lifespan, lower power loss and improved overclockability.
ASUS Express Gate SSD
This is great for those who wish to get online in a rush. The ASUS P6T Deluxe comes with built-in flash memory containing a Linux operating system with utilities like MSN, Skype, Google Talk, QQ and Yahoo! Messenger. It allows you to quickly surf the Internet, check your e-mails or message your friends. It only takes 5 seconds to boot up using the Express Gate SSD and get online!
ASUS EPU 6 Engine
The ASUS EPU 6 is the latest version of their power management utility. It is designed to reduce the total system power by adjusting the voltage and power phases of the CPU as well as the graphics card, memory, chipset, hard drives and even the CPU cooler and system fans.
ASUS Quiet Thermal Solutions
The ASUS P6T Deluxe comes with both the ASUS Stack Cool 2 as well as a passive chipset and VRM cooler. The ASUS Stack Cool 2 is a passive cooling solution based on a special PCB design that is designed to dissipate heat from the back of the motherboard. The P6T Deluxe also sports several passive heatsinks with copper heatpipes that effectively dissipate the heat generated from the hot chipset and VRM areas. Should you require additional cooling performance though, the P6T Deluxe comes with an optional fan that converts the passive cooler into an active one.
