And at the same time, provided the digital audio outputs via S/PDIF OUT and SONAR X-Fi audio card. CREATIVE X-FiTM ,CMSS 3D, EAX4.0 certification, guaratees the highest quality fidelity for games and movies.
	Support Intel® Core™ i7  processors Supports latest Intel® Core™ i7 processors. QuickPath Interconnect technology for more bandwidth between CPU & system. Intel® Turbo Boost Technology for improved single-threaded performance.
	Intel® X58 & ICH10R Chipset The Intel® X58 Express Chipsets support the latest Intel® Core™ i7 processors with FSB QPI 6.4GT/S, including  45nm processors, with its record breaking performance and greater energy efficiency. Intel® X58 chipset, with optimized system memory capabilities, chipset over-speed protection removed for maximum overclocking, providing faster boot and application load times and additional power savings. Intel® X58 chipset also offer options for DDR3 memory support, providing scalable options for users wanting to take advantage of higher memory performance with less power consumption to run next generation applications such as high-definition video and 3D visualization Note:Please check our CPU compatibility table for full details Triple Channel DDR3 1800
	Supports 3 channel DDR3 memory up to 2000(oc)/1800(oc)MHz for unprecedented memory performance. Install up to 12GB of memory with O.C. orientation 3 DIMM sockets onboard.
	ATI CrossFireX™ & NVIDIA SLI™support ATI CrossFireX™ technology harnesses the power of up to 4 ATI graphics cards simultaneously to deliver ultra-smooth 3D graphics.NVIDIA® 3-way SLI™ enables up to 2.8x performance gain over a single GPU and supports full HD gaming.
	PCIe Generation 2.0 support PCI Express Gen2.0 technology doubles the available aggregate bandwidth between PCIe Generation 2 cards and the motherboard. This means a Gen2.0 16-lane (x16) link can provide up to 16GB/s of bandwidth, 8GB/s in each direction. PCIe Gen2.0 is backwards compatible, and so existing PCIe “Gen1” cards can be plugged into Gen2.0 slots.

The SONAR X-Fi audio card combines the best audio technologies to restore audio quality after compression and re-encode 2-channel audio into multi-channel digital surround sound. CMSS®-3D support creates surround sound so real you’ll really believe you are in the game, whilst EAX4.0 delivers enhanced sound effects on supporting games. Supports loss-less content protection technology for full-rate HD movie playback from Blu-ray Disc™ or HD-DVD.   SONAR X-FI AUDIO FEATURES Multi-streaming support for gaming audio & VoIP simultaneously Accurate 3D positional audio with X-Fi CMSS®-3D Enhanced gaming sound effects with EAX4.0 X-Fi CRYSTALIZER™ - restores highs and low to music tracks after MP3 compression Excellent audio fidelity - 108dB DAC SNR/104dB Loss-less HD audio for Blu-ray Disc™ HD-DVD playback
	AEGIS Panel  AEGIS Panel is a Windows based innovation tool to provide monitoring system information about fan speeds, temperatures, voltages CPU Clock, etc. It also quick and easy overclocking options, with a range of frequency and voltage adjustments.
	100% SOLID Capacitor & Ferrite Choke Design Foxconn’s 100% SOLID Capacitor design uses only Japanese ‘solid’ capacitors of the highest quality.
	Ferrite Choke Ferrite Choke design holds energy at a higher frequency with less power loss, providing more stability and efficiency for your system.
	Serial Attached SCSI  The fastest desktop storage solution yet! Blood RAGE supports up to 2 SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) devices to allow connection of the latest high-performance SCSI storage solutions to your desktop! This means you can use speedy 15000rpm SAS hard drives, and because it also supports eSATA and SATA drives you can connect standard 5400rpm drives as well. With 2 drives connected, you can set up RAID 0 or 1 configurations for more flexibility in performance and data security.
	PCB Voltage Sensors Handy on-PCB sensors allow users to quickly take voltage readings for the CPU, memory and northbridge.
	Easily reset CMOS on the workbench, when recovering from failed overclock attempt.
	On/off/reset buttons are located directly on the motherboard PCB, so you can easily start and reset your system whilst testing it on the workbench.
	2-digit LED readout displays hardware status and enables quick error diagnosis.
