10Gb/s transfer speed, 2x faster than USB 3.0 and backward
compatibility with existing USB devices.
Connecting the Future - USB Type-C™:
The World's Next Universal Connector
The USB Type-C™ port with USB 3.1 support is a robust and slim
connector for all of your devices with reversible plug orientation.
Turbo B-Clock:
Built-in Advanced Performance Tuning IC
Thanks to the onboard TURBO B-Clock
Tuning IC, GIGABYTE Motherboards enable Overclockers to have the ability
to change their BCLK Frequency to a desired value of their choice. With
the new linear range adjustment option of the Tuning IC, ranges from
90MHz to 500MHz are now possible, so that overclockers are not limited
to the 5% ranges of traditional straps.
* Turbo B-Clock overclocking range may vary according to CPU capabilities.

audio codec that delivers an exceptional audio listening experience
with up to 115dB SNR, ensuring users get the best possible audio quality
from their PC.
High Quality audio capacitors deliver the highest quality sound
resolution and sound expansion to create the most realistic sound
effects for professional gamers.
Ambient LED
GIGABYTE motherboards feature LED lighting for the audio guard path,
providing a cool, custom look to your rig. Not only does the Audio Noise
Guard protect the board's sensitive analog audio components, but its
LEDs can also be programed to beat at the rhythm of the music you are
listening to, or pulse at a soothing pace to create a great atmosphere
to enhance the environment of your game, movie or music.

15μ Gold Plated CPU Socket Design
GIGABYTE motherboards come equipped with a 15 micron thick gold plated
CPU socket, which means that enthusiasts can enjoy absolute reliability
and longevity for the CPU socket overtime, without having any concerns
about corroded pins or bad contacts.
GIGABYTE Patented DualBIOS™ (UEFI) Design
GIGABYTE Ultra Durable™ motherboards feature GIGABYTE DualBIOS™, an
exclusive technology from GIGABYTE that protects arguably one of your
PC's most crucial components, the BIOS. GIGABYTE DualBIOS™ means that
your motherboard has both a 'Main BIOS' and a 'Backup BIOS', making
users protected from BIOS failure due to virus attack, hardware
malfunction, improper OC settings or power failure during the update
process.
4K Ultra HD Support
4K resolution is the next technological milestone in high-definition
content delivery, utilizing approximately 4,000 pixels on the horizontal
axis, more than four times today's standard HD pixel density. GIGABYTE
motherboards provide native 4K support with integrated Intel® HD Graphics via HDMI.
HDMI™ - The Next Generation Multimedia Interface
HDMI™ is a High-Definition Multimedia
Interface which provides up to 5Gb/s video transmitting bandwidth and
8-channel high quality audio all through a single cable. Able to
transmit superior, uncompressed digital video and audio, HDMI™ ensures
the crispest rendering of digital content up to 1080p without the
quality losses associated with analog interfaces and their
digital-to-analog conversion. In addition, HDMI™ is compatible with HDCP
(High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), allowing the playback of
Blu-ray/HD DVD and other protected media content.
