Computex 2015 would not have been possible without the innovative fantex world-leading nvidia graphics memory partner corsair and the retail partner NCIX along with silverstone and in win with intel skylake chipsets right around the corner gigabyte has announced their new flagship z170 g1 ATX gaming motherboard as expected this month board is designed with quality components for confident extreme overclocking capabilities and 4-way GPU support the LGA 1151 socket will support dual channel ddr3 3 SATA Express connectors for up to 16 Giga bits per second data transfer rates right in between the PCI Express slots there are two x PCIe gen3 X 4m two connectors with an insane 32 gigabits per second transfer speeds and support for raid Wow as for i/o you get six USB 3.0 ports a single USB 3.1 type-a port HDMI 2.0 for 4k at 60 Hertz 7.1 channel audio dual Gigabit Ethernet and a USB type-c port with support for power delivery 2.0 up to 36 watts gigabyte has also included a built-in creative soundblaster for a better sound experience and with the onboard audio like that you won't be needing a desktop DAC there is an LED trace paths through the gaming g1 branding on the motherboard with seven color choices so we are seeing RGB implementation into motherboards now and if you're into water cooling there are built in G 1/4 thread fittings on the heatsink we are noticing motherboard manufacturers reinforcing the PCI lanes with metal housing we are told for improved durability of the lanes and release some of the long-term tension to prevent GPU sag the g1 gaming motherboard is gigabytes top-of-the-line fully decked out and ready to go skylight motherboard and I like the white and red accents that should suit many bills especially if you're paired with great-looking Ram gigabyte also showed off their new g1 980ti with different looking wind force cooler now with silver and aluminum accents on the front instead of having the traditional all-black the triple fan design isn't anything new for gigabyte but with exuse new direct co3 cooler that also has two events we are excited to test the thermal performance of each of these GPUs but one thing they share is silent mode where the fans don't kick in if GPU temperatures remain below 55 C clock speeds are still unknown but we're hoping at least a 50% boost on the base clocks for these cards one thing we have to say is gigabyte produces some of the best-looking back lights and the g1 is no exception with an aluminum back laid that's design like the part of the card with these angular cutouts to fit the rest of the design and now with wind force logo on top of the card is illuminated with many color options RGB is now everywhere the heatsink is pretty large with five copper heat pipes that should cool the GPU well under control and one difference on this card is an extra DVI port while the rest of the i/o remains the same as the reference 980ti so what do you guys think about the new g1 gaming introductions from gigabyte are you ready to jump onto the z170 platform and between all other 980ti releases do you like the approach on the gigabyte card let us know in the comment down below thanks for watching and we'll see you in the next one
