The nForce 630i and 610i MCP line is getting some new boards from the folks at Foxconn. The M7PMX and M7VMX line of boards support the Intel 45nm proccessor processor (Core 2 Quad and Duo) and 1333MHz FSB. These boards also come with onboard GeForce 7100 or GeForce 7050 video with HDMI output. These boards seem like a perfect solution for HTPCs. The boards are due out later this month so keep an eye for them.
Beijing, China, January 22nd 2008 – FOXCONN today launched a range of new motherboards based on the nForce™ 630i and 610i MCPs. The M7PMX and M7VMX families support 1333MHz FSB processors including the latest 45nm processor technologies for Core™2 Quad and Core™2 Duo families.
Providing a complete solution for everyday computing, the new motherboards include integrated GeForce 7100 (M7PMX) or GeForce 7050 (M7VMX) graphics processors which support DirectX 9.0 and Shader Model 3.0. Graphics output, and can be configured for multi-monitor configurations with the onboard nView™ Multi-Display Technology.
Enhanced memory speeds
FOXCONN engineers have upgraded the supported memory speeds on both the M7PMX and M7VMX families, to ensure better overall system performance, delivering a better cost/performance ration for system builders and home users alike.
Onboard HDMI with HDCP
The M7PMX family includes an onboard HDMI connector with HDCP to meet the output protection and security requirements of the Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD formats when connected to HDCP-capable displays.
All of the new motherboards include 4* SATAII connectors with RAID functionality and NVIDIA MediaShield™ technology which provides a simple wizard-based interface for creating and managing multi-disk storage configurations.
FoxOne™
Also included on all M7PMX and M7VMX motherboards is FOXCONN’s proprietary solution enables easy overclocking, fan control and system monitoring from a dedicated Windows application, to save users from navigating complex BIOS options.
Features for everyday computing
High-definition audio and networking up to Gigabit LAN speed are integrated onboard, along with a full compliment of USB2.0 connectors and an ATA connector for legacy devices not supported by SATAII.
Specification
* Overclocking performance is not guaranteed and will vary according to installed system components. Overclocking may impact system stability.
