EVGA X58 Classified3 ATX Motherboard Official

Coming to provide a platform for Intel's LGA 1366 central processing units, the EVGA X58 Classified3 motherboard has now been made official by its maker, featuring next-generation technologies and a the ATX form factor.

Since the X58 chipset supports socket LGA 1366 CPUs, this means that the X58 Classified3 can handle even the Intel Core i7-980X six-core central processing unit.

For one, the board features a black PCB (printed circuit board) and four PCI Express x16 slots, for multi-GPU 2-way or 3-way SLI configurations, as well as six DDR3 memory slots.

There are also six SATA 3.0 Gbps ports, making it possible to provide a desktop system with a very large storage capacity.

These should ensure that any high-speed HDD, SSD, external or otherwise, as well as flash drives and any other USB-connected devices will perform at their best.

ECGA also threw in a 10-phase Digital PWM, a debug LED and overclocking features like voltage read points, CMOS, Power and Reset buttons and PCIe disable jumpers.

As for connectivity and I/O, the hardware maker made a point of implementing dual Gigabit Ethernet, the aforementioned USB 3.0 and 7.1 channel audio, among other things.
