Board
Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 adalah sebuah board kelas premium dengan chipset X48 dan fitur DES. Sekilas pengunaan chipset X38 dengan X48 tidak banyak berbeda. Perubahan chipset X48 hanya berbeda dengan dukungan penuh FSB procesor 1600Mhz.
Tetapi ada perubahan cukup besar dari disain Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 dengan memory DDR3. Fitur board sudah dilengkapi dengan fitur DES atau Dynamic Energy Saver. Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 nantinya dapat mengatur konsumsi power secara otomatis. Artinya pengunakan power dapat lebih dihemat, tanpa mengurangi kecepatan procesor itu sendiri. Kombinasi dari komponen berkualitas tinggi dengan mengkonsumsi power rendah ditambah DES, membuat pemakaian power lebih hemat dibandingkan board lain.
Perlengkapan Gigabyte X48T-DQ6
Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 lebih banyak memiliki perlengkapan device luar. Seperti perlengkapan SATA kabel sudah disiapkan pada paket Gigabyte X48T-DQ6.
Disain kabel SATA yang ada untuk kabel internal. Dibuat khusus dengan bentuk L agar tidak terlalu menonjol keluar ketika dipasang pada harddisk.
