GIGABYTE GA-G1975X + Presler Overclocking Test @ VR-Zone

According to GIGABYTE, the GIGABYTE G1-Turbo series motherboards are designed for extreme overclockers and hardcore gamers. We have recently gotten hold of a GIGABYTE GA-G1975X based on the Intel 975X Express chipset.

This is one of the few GIGABYTE boards that come with GIGABYTE's proprietary Turbojet technology. If you haven't already guessed it, Turboject Technology refers to the dual blue LED air vents seen above. It provides more room for performance tuning by improving the thermal conditions of two vital areas, the MOSFETs around the CPU socket, and the motherboard chipset. Effectively, the heat can be dissipated rapidly and efficiently from the CPU, north bridge chipset, memory and the critical power management units. From personal testing, it definitely does work quite well, unlike some of the gimmicks we see out there. the main reason is that it not just has the fans to pull the hot air out from the motherboard area, but also fans to push the air through the vital areas.
