Gigabyte's Booth - Part 1

Mobos, graphics cards and notebooks are the order of the day at Gigabyte's vast showcase. Sadly not much was shown on upcoming products.

There are however enough new stuff and we'll start off with this H55 mobo which comes in a Mini-ITX format. Other features are similar to those of its bigger counterparts.

Here we have the very same board being demonstrated on its versatility and its prowess along with the new K-SKU processors in cranking up performance to rival its bigger counterparts. Lian-Li's spider chassis lends its hands in this demo setup.

For the AMD users, the AMD 870 chipset is one of the more affordable side of things. This GA-870A-UD3 motherboard takes advantage of the standard ATX format to spread its features evenly, including packing dual PEG slots that work at x8 interface speeds each. Unlike some other competing boards, this AMD 870 chipset is paired with a SB850 Southbridge to support SATA 6Gbps, while NEC provides USB 3.0 and Gigabyte boosting the power output of the USB ports by three times as well.

Gigabyte's take of the new GeForce GTX 465 - thankfully it bears their own custom cooler which should fare a lot better than the reference model.
