abit has launched their new A-N78HD motherboard which is based on nVIDIA’s GeForce 8200 chipset. This highly integrated multimedia platform motherboard makes high definition multimedia enjoyment more convenient and easier. abit paid special attention to video output flexibility with three connection options already implemented on-board. Users can choose between the standard D-Sub VGA connector or use one of the two digital outputs; DVI or HDMI.
As abit’s first motherboard supporting nVIDIA’s Hybrid SLI technology, this mainstream motherboard offers “GeForce Boost” and “Hybrid Power”. GeForce Boost allows for scalable graphics performance when installing an additional discrete graphics card. Whereas Hybrid Power allows for the shutting off of unused graphics adaptor when it is not needed, effectively resulting in lower power consumption.
abit has also implemented a 4-phase OC-PWM set around the CPU and one extra one-phase OC-PWM for the memory area. This OC-PWMs also allow for better overclocking capabilities. Read on for specifications.
