DFI launches the DFI LANParty BI 785G-M35, adding on to its Blood Iron (BI) series of motherboards. Based on the AMD 785 chipset, the motherboard comes equipped with an onboard graphics solution, the ATI Radeon HD 4200. The motherboard incorporates DFI LANParty’s unique "ABS II" CPU Auto Upgrade Technology, allowing users to enjoy high performance without compromising on cost. The BI 785G-M35 has an embedded Realtek ALC885 for its audio solution, delivering 8 channels of high definition audio with a high S/N ratio of 106 dB. This is certainly a board worth watching out for and we believe it will appeal to users who are assembling a MATX PC on a shoe string budget.

DFI today launched the LANParty BI G41-T33 board for consumers demand high performance for a low price. This board uses Intel G41+ICH7 chipset supporting dual-channel DDR3 800/1066 memory, Intel GMA X4500 integrated graphics, DFI ABS II that automatically upgrades your CPU. Price : US$89

DFI has announced a new fanless Mini-ITX motherboard - NP100-N16C. This motherboard utilizes a 45nm Intel® Atom™ N270 processor (1.6GHz clock, 533MHz system bus) with the Intel® 945GSE Express chipset and ICH7M I/O controller hub. Exhibiting a processor thermal design power (TDP) of just 2.5 watts, this value-optimized platform provides higher performance-per-watt than previous Intel x86 mobile platforms.

Last month, we provided you a glimpse of the DFI DK P55 board and now we will show you the LANPARTY UT P55 board which is packed with several new interesting features.

So what's so interesting about this board? At first look, you can see that it is fully on digital PWM and there is a slot for NAND flash. Also, DFI will be using Flame Freezer for the chipst cooling department as well. On closer examination, there is a mini USB port on the IO backpanel.

DFI is preparing a new P45 board that is touted to be pretty overclockable and best of all, very affordable too. DFI called it Blood Iron (BI) P45-T2RS Elite which is an update to the current P45-T2RS board with a revised PCB layout and a different LAN chip. It comes with one PCIe x16 slot and 3 PCIe x1 slots instead of 2 PCIe x16 slots and 2 PCIe x1 slots to reduce cost so you can't run Crossfire on this board now. It is said to be achieved FSB above 600MHz easily and mass production will start next week.

We have seen DFI adding an AM3 board based on 790FX chipset earlier this month and now they are going to release another AM3 board later next month. This neat little board is based on mATX form factor sporting a 4-layer black PCB. It uses 790GX chipset supporting 45nm AM3 Phenom II processors and DDR3 800/1066/1333 DIMMs. It has 4 DIMM slots up to 8GB of memories and has an additional 128MB DDR3 SidePort memory support.
