Product Overview

Gigabyte GA-K8V Ultra-939

Supporting the latest AMD socket 939 Athlon™64/ 64 FX processor, the GA-K8V Ultra-939 brings new levels of performance and features to the desktop platform. The brand new AMD Athlon™64/ 64 FX processor is furnished with unprecedented framework consisting of AMD's 64-bit computing platform, HyperTransport Technology, and internal DDR400 memory controller to boost the overall performance. Accompanied with the innovative designs of Athlon™64, the advanced VIA K8T800 Pro Chipset and Gigabyte's unique technology also contribute to the functionality and stability of this platform. The industry's first IEEE 1394b controller from T.I. is integrated for the high-speed interface of future Audio/Video devices. Another feature is the Dual LAN, equipped for establishing the traffic between two separate networks to ensure rapid transfer of data from WAN to LAN. The IEEE1394b, and Serial ATA provide superior input/output performance and data protection. Gigabyte's GA-K8V Ultra-939 definitely represents the uppermost platform for today's computers.


AMD Athlon™ 64/ 64 FX Computing Platform

Powered by VIA K8T800 Pro chipset, GA-K8V Ultra-939 supports the brand new 8th generation AMD Athlon™64 / 64FX processor to deliver a high performance platform with dual support for 32-bit applications and increasing 64-bit computing needs.


HyperTransport™ Technology

A high-speed, low latency, point-to-point link designed to provide excellent interconnect for computation and networking. This Technology not only provides more bandwidth but also reduces the I/O bottlenecks and, consequently, greatly enhances the system performance.


Dual Channel DDR Architecture Support

The AMD Athlon™ 64 processor improves the memory performance by integrating a DDR memory controller into the processor. With the integrated memory controller, this platform supports dual channel DDR400 memory architecture and delivers high capacity of 4GB memory and high bandwidth up to 6.4GB/s to ensure greatest memory performance.


Superb bandwidth AGP 8X Graphics Interface

Featuring AGP 8x (AGP 3.0) the new generation VGA interface specification, this platform delivers enhanced graphics performance with high bandwidth up to 2.12GB/s. Allowing users to have a more realistic graphics experiences while gaming or movie watching.


DUAL LAN

Equipped with Gigabit and Ethernet LAN solution, this platform can be applied as network gateway, managing traffic between two separate networks and ensuring rapid transfer of data from WAN to LAN without any added arbitration or latency.


Industry's first IEEE1394b Motherboard

This platform is the first motherboard with IEEE1394b FireWire interface from Texas Instruments (TI). With the transfer speed up to 800Mb/s, the new generation IEEE1394b interface further enhances PC connectivity with consumer electronics audio/video (A/V) appliances, and storage peripherals.


Serial ATA with RAID 0.1 Function

Serial ATA is the revolutionary ATA interface that provides scalable performance for IDE device. With up to 150MB/s data transfer rate, Serial ATA is faster than current Parallel ATA and delivers superior input/output performance. In addition, the Serial ATA interface is furnished with RAID 0.1 function for extra performace enhancement and data protection.


8 Channel Audio with UAJ

With the innovative function of Universal Audio Jack (UAJ) of ALC 850 AC97 codec, this platform provides superior 8-Channel stereo sound enjoyment without the stress of incorrect installation.


GIGABYTE Patent DualBIOS™

DualBIOS™ prevents BIOS from virus attacks to provide a double security thus assuring the PC stability.

Features
• Socket 939 supports AMD Athlon™64 FX /Athlon™64 processor.
• Supports Dual Channel DDR400 memory architecture.
• Dual LAN solution with Gigabit LAN solution integrated.
• Integrated Serial-ATA interface with RAID 0,1 function.
• Integrated T.I. IEEE 1394b FireWire interface.
• Integrated high quality 8 channel Audio Codec.

Over the course of the last year or so we’ve seen GHz become less of a focus when it comes to processors. Instead, we’re seeing a shift towards processors that do more work per clock, have larger caches, are more power efficient, and of course we’ve seen dual-core processors hit the market. So what is dual-core all about, and how does it weigh up compared to single-core?
