Introduction

The GA-G41M-Combo based on the Intel G41 chipset supports the latest Intel 45nm CPUs,

creating a powerful multi-media platform which allows users to do more at once. At the

heart of the Intel G41 Express chipset is the Intel X4500 graphics media accelerator,

which support DX10 and features several unique innovations including more Execution Units

for enhanced 3D performance and Intel Clear Video Technology for sharper images and precise

color control.

3x USB Power Boost

GIGABYTE motherboards feature a 3x USB power boost, delivering greater compatibility and

extra power for USB devices. GIGABYTEs unique USB power design is also able to efficiently

regulate output over the full voltage range, which greatly enhances USB device compatibility.

In addition, dedicated lower resistance fuses ensure lower voltage drops, and provide more

stable and plentiful power delivery.

Windows 7 WHQL Certified

The motherboard has obtained WHQL (Windows Hardware Quality Labs) certification for Windows

7 from Microsoft®, setting the standard for future.

Smaller, Faster and More Efficient

GA-G41M-Combo motherboards paired with Intel 45nm CPUs deliver the very best platform for

multitasking, multimedia and high performance gaming. Not only do GIGABYTE's latest motherboards

based on Intel Eaglelake chipsets all support Intel's new generation, 45nm multi-core processors.

Supports both Dual Channel DDR2 and DDR3

Experience the advanced memory combination technology, featuring ultimate scalability with

both DDR2 and DDR3 memory support for running next generation applications with lower power

consumption, which delivers superior performance for the most demanding applications. * Please

DualBIOS - Patented Dual Hardware BIOS Protection

DualBIOS is a GIGABYTE patented technology that automatically recovers BIOS data when

main BIOS has crashed or failed. Featuring 2 physical BIOS ROMs integrated onboard,

GIGABYTE DualBIOS allows quick and seamless recovery from BIOS damage or failure due

to viruses or improper BIOS updating.

EasyTune6

GIGABYTE has completely redesigned EasyTune6 from the ground up to make it easier than ever

to manage and monitor your hardware resources as well as tweak your system settings in order

to achieve maximum system performance. Whether you are an overclocking enthusiast, or a computer

novice, EasyTune6 provides the tools you need to quickly and effortlessly fine tune your system.

SATA 3Gb/s storage interface

SATA 3Gb/s doubles bus bandwidth from 1.5Gb/s to 3Gb/s. SATA 3Gb/s facilitates bandwidth

aggregation for multiple devices, enabling max through put as well as, higher cache through

put performance in single drive configurations.

Gigabit LAN connectivity

The Gigabit network interface delivers a high speed LAN connection with data

transfer rate up to 1000Mb/s, providing new generation connectivity for the broadband era.

Gigabit LAN is ideally for seamless internet connection such as streaming audio and video contents

ErP Lot 6 support

The ErP (also known as Energy-Related Products Directive) is part of the European Union's

environmental regulations policy. It is based on concern for the environmental as the

proliferation of electronic devices continues, and how to improve energy efficiency for

a better and greener life. GIGABYTE supports ErP and produces motherboards that help you

effectively improve system efficiency.
