HONG KONG – Mar. 18, 2008 – ZOTAC International
(MCO) Ltd., a leading award-winning NVIDIA AIC, today announced the ultimate
platforms for gamers and system enthusiasts – the ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme.
The new platform combine the power of high-performance Intel Core 2 processors,
extreme overclocking, high-speed DDR3 memory, PCI Express 2.0, 2-way, 3-way
and Quad SLI technology, ESA and NVIDIA Control Panel to power the world’s
fastest gaming PCs for unmatched DirectX 10 performance.
Powering the
new ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme motherboard is NVIDIA’s latest nForce 790i
Ultra SLI MCP and SPP, designed for Intel Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, Core 2 Extreme
and Pentium processors, including 45nm Penryn models, with front-side
bus speeds up to 1600 MHz.
The ZOTAC
nForce 790i-Supreme has plenty of overclocking headroom, allowing adventurous
users to extract every ounce of performance from the latest 45nm Penryn-based
Intel Core 2 processors. Sky’s the limit when it comes to performance
tweaking with the ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme.
“PC
enthusiasts and gamers always seek the best components available for their systems,
the ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme delivers the best foundation for their systems,” said
Carsten Berger, marketing director, ZOTAC International (MCO) Ltd. “The
ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme combines all the latest technologies available and
encompasses it into a single high-performance motherboard.”
New
to the ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme is support for DDR3 memory up to 2000 MHz,
with enhanced performance profiles 2.0, or EPP 2.0 technology. Users can optimize
DDR3 memory modules hassle-free for maximal performance with EPP 2.0 technology.
PCI Express
2.0 technology is the backbone for 2-way, 3-way and Quad SLI technologies.
PCI Express 2.0 delivers double the bandwidth of first-generation PCI Express
while maintaining backwards compatibility, providing up to 5 GT/s of bandwidth
when paired with PCI Express 2.0 compliant devices, to feed bandwidth-hungry
3D games and applications.
The ZOTAC
nForce 790i-Supreme support the latest 2-way, 3-way and Quad SLI technologies
with three full-speed PCI Express x16 slots. SLI technology allows gamers to
add multiple ZOTAC GeForce graphics cards to achieve up to 2.8x performance
increases for mind-blowing frame rates with next-generation DirectX 10 and
OpenGL 2.1 games and applications.
New ESA technology provides complete system performance management in real-time,
granting users unprecedented control over thermal, electrical, acoustic and
operating characteristics for maximal system performance. A new NVIDIA Control
Panel unifies all ESA-compliant components for easy system monitoring with
an intuitive and customizable 3D user interface.
“ESA
technology is the latest development in providing high optimization capabilities
to the end user,” Mr. Berger added. “With ESA technology, anyone
can fine tune their system for the best performance, no matter what their skill
level is.”
Existing NVIDIA technologies make a return to the ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme,
including MediaShield Storage, DualNet and FIrstPacket.
NVIDIA MediaShield
Storage technology allows users to safeguard data or speed up hard disk performance
with support for RAID 0, 1, 0+1 and 5, with up to six SATA 3.0Gb/s drives.
NVIDIA DualNet
technology provides two native Gigabit Ethernet controllers for high-speed
networking performance. DualNet technology is joined by FIrstPacket technology
for easy network optimizations with an intuitive wizard – allowing users to prioritize
specific network traffic, such as games for ultra-low ping times and VoIP for
crystal clear calls.
Build the
ultimate PC gaming system featuring the foundation of the world’s best
PC gaming platform using the ZOTAC nForce 790i-Supreme motherboard.
