Intel engineers designed the Intel Desktop Board DX58SO Extreme Series to be not only a high-performance motherboard, but also easy to use and configure. One of the biggest problems for Extreme PCs is heat; excessive heat can not only limit your overall performance, but can shorten the life of your PC's components. Increased airflow will ensure your hardware performs at its best. The unique placement of the memory DIMM slots allow for efficient "front to back" airflow which matches the way your computer case operates. The extra wide spacing of the x16 graphics slots allows for additional air flow for even the biggest graphics cards to perform at their best, including dual graphics card configurations like those featuring ATI CrossfireX* technology.

With the dual full-speed PCIe* 2.0 graphics slots, you can support multiple graphics cards for either advanced multi-monitor usages, or eye-popping graphics on a single monitor. The Intel Desktop Board DX58SO Extreme Series supports the latest ATI CrossFireX™ technology to bring you an amazing multi-GPU performance platform. Enabling game-dominating power, ATI CrossFireX technology enables two or more discrete graphics processors to work together to improve graphics performance. ATI CrossFireX raises the bar for competitive performance and visual thrills.

Other great features that make building and using your new Intel Desktop Board DX58SO Extreme Series system an exciting experience are: an on-board on/off power switch for quick power cycling, solid state capacitors and exclusive passive motherboard heatsinks increase reliability for performance tuning, a fault-tolerant BIOS that virtually eliminates errors due to corrupted BIOS files, and an on-board audio solution featuring 7.1 Dolby Digital* sound.

Another exciting feature is support for the Intel® Desktop Control Center software tool, which is now optimized for the Intel Desktop Board DX58SO Extreme Series and the Intel Core i7 processor.
