|
|
Meanwhile also MSI has a Z77 based miniITX motherboard on the market. With price tag of only 98 Euros this board is surprisingly cheap. To us this sound quite interesting and we`re curious to find out whether this is a compelling offer or a board lacking features."

ASUS P8Z77-I Deluxe Mini-ITX Motherboard Review
|
|
There are two features that really make this board stand out though the USB 3.0 Boost Mode performance and the 8+2 power phase design built in to the board. USB 3.0 Boost technology enhances performance of any USB 3.0 hard drive type device, with better performance seen when using a UASP-enabled device adapter. With the power phases, ASUS was able to cram a total of 10 power phases (eight for the CPU and two for the integrated graphics) onto the board without at all hampering the feature set or space-constraining the on-board components. They did this by placing all CPU-related power components on an upright daughter board."

ASRock Z77 OC Formula LGA 1155 Motherboard Review
|
|
Generally speaking our ASRock experiences have been positive save for one or two minor complaints. We've looked inexpensive but very popular ASRock model motherboards. Today we are taking a look at a higher end more expensive ASRock offering. The Z77 OC Formula caught our eye and will hopefully perform as good as it looks.

Asus P8Z77 V-Pro Motherboard Review
|
|
Over the last few years the motherboard industry has lost some key players, but even in today’s smaller battlefield it can be a daunting task to really make a motherboard that stands out. Making things even more difficult is the fact that motherboards utilizing the same platform are going to roughly have the same performance, and also carry similar features

Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD4H Intel Z77 Motherboard Review
|
|
The Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD4H motherboard is built around Intel's Z77 Express chipset which supports 22nm 3rd Gen. Intel Core i3/i5/i7 'IvyBridge' and 32nm 2nd Gen. 'SandyBridge' processors in the LGA1155 socket. This jet-black, ATX sized motherboard comes with Display Port, Analog VGA, DVI and HDMI integrated graphics ports at the rear IO and depending on the CPU installed, extremely basic DX11 integrated graphics via the Intel HD4000 IGP (IVB) or DX10.1 graphics via the Intel HD3000 IGP (SNB). PCSTATS really liked what we saw from Gigabyte's Intel Z77 based GA-Z77X-UD4H motherboard -- the board graciously offers up a comprehensive feature set, its layout and implementation are well executed and the build quality is first rate.

ASUS P9X79 PRO Motherboard Review @ Techgage
|
|
Intels X79 platform may seem a little dated by this point, but it in fact remains the best choice for those needing to build the biggest, baddest PCs around especially with Ivy Bridge-E likely 9+ months away. Complementing X79s goals perfectly is ASUS P9X79 PRO, a motherboard that offers a rich feature-set in both hardware and software."
