A small Ivy Bridge motherboard having every feature that you
can need
Gigabyte
GA-Z77N-WiFi
Ga-Z77N-WiFi is Mini-ITX motherboard that has plentiful
technological features. It is socket LGA1155 motherboard, so it works with both
Sandy Bridge processor and Ivy Bridge processor. But you are buying updated Z77
Express chipset, actually you should buy one of the newest chips of Intel.
In the back side is 4 USB gates and 2 USB3 gates and there
is USB3 connector on motherboard, so you can connect with USB3 gates in the
front panel in a compatible chassis or use bracket to add USB3 gate in the back
side.
You also have 2 HDMI outputs and one DVI to take full
advantage of integrated graphics of Ivy Bridge processor, but you can only run
2 screens at the same time. If you want to set up 3 screens or want to play
game at the higher resolutions, you need to plug graphic card into empty PCI
Express x16 slot.
There aren’t many spaces on the surface of 170x170mm
motherboard to serve for widened slots; PCI-E x16 slot is all of the things
that you have. However, motherboard nearly has everything that you need to set
up availably. 802.11n, Bluetooth and WiDi wireless displaying technology of
Intel and sound chipset give you an S/PDIF optical output and surround 7.1-
sound. 2 slots of memory have maximum capacity: 16GB RAM and you are served
well about storing with 2 SATA3 gates and 2 SATA2 gates and support for RAID 0,
1, 5 and 10.
When we set up Intel Core i7-3770K processor, we realized
that the total grade is 113. This is the thing that we hope. Graphic efficiency
from integrated graphics of processor or AMD Radeon HD 5770 referred graphic
card is also the thing that we hope.
We could not increase voltage of processor; however, by
increasing multiplier of processor from 38 to 42 criteria, we saw that clock
speed of processor increased to 4.2 GHz and our grades of tests also increased
to 125.
It is expensive, but GA-Z77N-WiFi has efficiency and technological
features that are appropriate to its price. If you want a small PC and also
want to be miserly about feature, it is a wonderful product.
GA-Z77N-WiFi has
efficiency and technological features that are appropriate to its price.
