Gigabyte motherboard with iPad recharging

by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 04/13/2010 10:28 AM | source: | 0 comment(s)

I'm not really sure how much of a selling point this really is but Gigabyte reports its USB Power 3x motherboards are the first mainboards capable of recharging an iPad while it is being used. Over 40 of the company's motherboard supply sufficient power to charge the iPad while the device is in operation, but to enable this feature you need to download the Gigabyte On/Off Charge driver at the company's website.

GIGABYTE TECHNOLOGY Co., Ltd, a leading manufacturer of motherboards, graphics cards and other computing hardware solutions today proudly announced their full range of Intel chipset-based X58, P55, H55, H57 as well as current and upcoming AMD 800 chipset series motherboards all allow charging of Apples latest hot selling iPad while the device is in use (on) and also when not in use (off).

Recent industry and news reports indicate that USB ports on most Windows PCs are unable to provide enough power to charge the new iPad while the device is in operation due to differences between motherboard USB power output and the devices charging specifications. However, GIGABYTEs unique USB power design is able to deliver extra power for devices that require more than the 500mA delivered from a traditional USB port. With a simple On/Off Charge driver update which can be found on the GIGABYTE website, GIGABYTE motherboard users are able to take full advantage of USB charging of their iPad, giving them more options and convenience when recharging their new device.
