But WHY does it say 'Game' on the heatsink. I mean at least it's not Godlike but really, who are they marketing this towards? Children?

OOo my friend is going to be so annoyed as he just tried to go with a black green build but couldn't find any mobos that were green themed.

Gigabyte just need to bring back the blue for the UD series and all will be right in the world (ish)

Because if you add the word game to any product it's all of a sudden worth triple what it should actually cost. For example, cheap keyboards and mice are £30 with game written on them, or, a fiver in beige.

Hopefully it doesn't temp Dice to go back to the Razor obsession

Glad to see this! I've missed the green motherboards

 

[Doomslayer]

IMO this is one ugly motherboard and so cheap looking

Uncomparable to the Z77 M3 Sniper or the z87 Sniper motherboards, sadly

'Me neither. It doesn't matter for the people who wanted a motherboard to stick a reference NVIDIA card was high on their lists. Gigabyte matte black pcbs and the greek looked beautiful

Text says " up to 3 way SLI or Crossfire ". While that may be grammatically correct, I feel it is easy to misread it and then think "3 way SLI" IS supported, when in fact it IS NOT.

Or it's just hard to read for you as it does indeed Support 3 way SLI. Just take a look at the picture, says 2 way/3 way SLI Support.

I just took a look . The picture actually says 2-Way SLI / 3-Way Crossfire.

Meh just saw 2/3 way, don't matter as WYP even says Crossfire or SLI.

 

[Thelosouvlakia]

Remember. AMD requires at least x4 lanes for crossifire. NVIDIA requires at least x8 lanes... Remember this and you won't have to look at the specs again, just the photo of a motherboard ^_^

Disappointing that this still has the slower m.2 port on it, unless of course you have no intention of using it for the faster drives.
