Gigabyte adds Xmas lights to motherboard (video)

Ok, ok, we tricked you, it’s not actually Christmas lights, but we can’t exactly tell you what the lights in the video below are for as yet, but this is an exclusive preview of a new technology that will be featured on just about every new motherboard from Gigabyte starting with their X48 boards which will arrive in Q1 2008.



It might not look like much in the video and we’re sorry about the lens glare, but the conditions where we shot this video were far from ideal, as the room was some 40-odd degrees warm as the boards were being stress tested. The first board is revision 1.1 of Gigabyte’s X48 board and we’re not quite sure what the second board was, as it was too dark to make out the model name, but it's a combo board as you can see from the ammount of memory slots.
