Sydney, Australia, September 24 2008 – ASUS, manufacturer of world-leading motherboards, has announced its upcoming ASUS P6T Deluxe motherboard.

Carrying on the tradition of ASUS’ award-winning P5Q Series motherboards, the P6T Deluxe will combine the latest technology with the new Intel X58 platform and outstanding design with a revolutionary thermal concept. This exclusive thermal technology, dubbed the Wind-Flow Design integrates a heatsink that is entirely shaped to efficiently disperse and cool down chipset temperatures.

Providing users with more stability, the new heatpipe design on the P6T Deluxe blends wind flow with an added cooling heatsink for the Northbridge. The heatsink is crafted with curved grooves that smartly manage air flow of the CPU fan, directing system heat away from the PC providing maximum ventilation and lowering temperatures.

Design aside, when it comes to real performance, the curved grooves on the Northbridge heatsink work as air flow channels – when heat generated by the CPU is driven away by the CPU fan, part of this hot air flow is directed towards the Northbridge area. It is here that the grooves effectively exert heat away in line with the channels. Furthermore, to cater for more stable overclocking, users will be able to attach a 4cm chipset fan* directly to the Northbridge heatsink to enhance air flow for cooler temperatures during overclocking. *Note: Chipset fan to be purchased separately.

The ASUS P6T Deluxe will be available from selected computer resellers – date and recommended retail price to be confirmed.
