Exclusive Features
7 Phase Power Phase Design
7-phase VRM design with high quality power components such as low RDS (on) Mosfet for lower temperature has the advantage to raise the overclocking ability.
Dura-MAX
BIOSTAR Dura-MAX™ is created for the highest quality and most innovative of all motherboard designs. It is a pioneering design that innovates IR DirectFET™ MOSFET, delivering a dramatically lower system temperature, improved energy efficiency and enhanced stability for overclocking needs. Also, it is combined with Japanese solid capacitors and Ferrite core chokes with higher power switching efficiency. Tpower i55 motherboards with Dura-MAX™ guarantee stability, reliability and durability in meeting the motherboard power requirements of new Intel processors and other components that run today's most demanding applications and games.
BIOSTAR "GPU" Technology
BIOSTAR G.P.U (Green Power Utility) is a new function that enhances energy efficiency by disabling extra phases while CPU is under light loading. It integrates a friendly GUI to monitor the resourcing and response of your CPU thus optimizing the power saving function in your system. G.P.U. constantly sets up the best power efficiency in your system, be it for heavy 3D gaming, Internet or MSN charting.
G.P.U. Power Indicator LED
LED display indicates real-time power saving.
GT60
Biostar GT60 is a unique OC method that enables users to adjust onboard GPU clock and voltage. GT60’s innovative design with flexible adjustment can enhance system gaming performance by up to 60%.
Chipset-CPU Features
Intel H55 chipset
The Intel H55 Chipset includes the FDI (Flexible Display Interface) which enables direct connection between the CPU and the graphics core. This allows the display information to be sent back to the H55 chipset for output.
The graphics core inside the Clarkdale processor is known as GMA HD. Its difference from the G45 GMA X4500HD is in the number of Unified shaders which was increased from 10 to 12.
Intel LGA 1156 Core™ i7/Core™ i5 Processor support
Lynnfield is the first family of Intel 45nm CPU processors that uses the Intel Nehalem micro architecture in LGA1156 package. It is supported by Intel® DMI Interconnect and integrated with the Dual-channel memory controller with 4 DIMM slots DDR3 memory. It supports the Intel Turbo boost technology and smart cache.
Dual Channel DDR3
It supports 4 DIMM Slots DDR3 memory that features data transfer rates of DDR3 2000(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600/1333. LGA 1156 Intel® Core™ i7 and Intel® Core™ i5 Processors support 2 memory channels and setting the memory multiplier, allows selection of the channel speed. These clearly uplift the band width and boost the overall system performance.
eSATA
TWO external SATA 3Gb/s ports connectivity with minimal host overhead and host to device latency.
IEEE1394 on board
IEEE 1394a is a serial bus interface for high-speed communication and data transfer. Major applications are in desktop, digital video/audio and other portable devices.
S/P DIF Output on board
Onboard Optical & Coaxial connector supports your desktop in transferring the non-distortion digital audio output to the AV amplifier and professional speaker system.
BIOS-Software Features
BIO-V(BIOSTAR Voltage Point)
This reads voltages from the RAM, chipset, PCI-E, CPU, QPI and CPU Pll's directly.
O.M.G (OverClocking Matrix Genie)
O.M.G (Overclocking Matrix Genie) is designed to automatically adjust key items to maximize system performance. Just press F10 when booting. This allows you to make simple overclocking steps as an OC expert. It lets you adjust the CPU clock, CPU voltage and other key items for overclocking needs.
BIO-Flasher
Update BIOS effortlessly from a USB flash disk before entering the OS.
BIO-Flasher is a convenient BIOS update tool. Just launch this tool and put the BIOS on USB pen driver before entering the OS. You can update your BIOS with only a few clicks without preparing an additional floppy disk or other complicated flash utility.
BIO-ReLife
BIO-ReLife Technology lets you recover crashed BIOS data from a USB flash pen driver that stores new BIOS file. This practical BIOS utility can restore your system and recover from a BIOS crash situation.
T-Overclocker
T-overclocker presents a simple Windows-based system performance enhancement and utility management. It features several powerful yet easy to use tools such as overclocking for system performance enhancement, CPU and memory special enhancement, a smart-fan control for managing fan speed control of both CPU cooling fan, north-bridge chipset cooling fan, PC health for monitoring system status, and pre-set OC modes for easy OC.
Other Features
Rapid Switch
No more meddling with the power and reset jumpers onboard. The power and reset buttons are already built onboard. It is convenient for DIY users to test the board without short-circuiting the wrong pins.
Rapid Debug
There is no need to check any H/W installation error. Onboard LED indicator answers the question for the user.
Tweak Tech
Biostar has a unique engineering PWM layout with low ESR and high ripple conductive solid state caps that provide sufficient, stable power supply to the CPU. The same philosophy applies to our DDR design to enhance the memory’s voltage stability.
