DFI LANPARTY LT X48-TR2 bundle and warranty
| Items |

DFI provides quite a decent bundle, with all the cables and connectors
you would need to get your system up and running, whilst adding a
little pimp to
the proceedings with UV-reactive cables and a heatpipe-laden
northbridge cooler.
The value of the audio module is questionable, however, considering it lacks features available on many integrated solutions (Dolby Digital Live or DTS Connect), or discrete solutions (advanced EAX modes), and yet takes up an expansion slot. For most people, though, losing an expansion slot is hardly the end of the world, but losing an expansion slot whilst gaining nothing over other on-board solutions is a bitter pill to swallow.
The instruction manual is not comprehensive, failing to mention memory compatability or discussing the vast array of overclocking options the board offers.
Warranty
Interestingly, the LGA775 socket is not covered by standard warranty Our testing has showed that it is the first part of a motherboard to fail if, like us, you repeatedly change CPUs on a regular basis.
The board is covered with a two-year warranty that starts on the date of purchase and is handled by the supplier from which it was purchased from.
