DFI first P45 mobo: DFI LP DK P45-T2RS |
DFI boards often comes later than others. Remember that we just saw their first X48 few days ago? But now they seems going “early” with Intel P45 chipset. Too bad they only release a side pic of DK P45-T2RS. The board features two PCIe x16 and two PCIe x1, all of them have been set in a good position. We guess the board is a mid range board because it only have a 4 phase VRM.
From DFI’s spec chart it is said the board will be going to release in 5 weeks later. Also we can see a “P45-T3R” will be going to be available in June.
