Features Supports AMD AM3+ FX / AM3 series Processors GIGABYTE Ultra Durable™ Technology Audio Noise Guard with High Quality Audio Capacitors GIGABYTE UEFI Dual BIOS™ 2-way Cross Fire™ Support 4 USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 ports with transfer rates of up to 5 Gbps GIGABYTE On/ Off Charge™ for USB (Universal Serial Bus) devices Revision 2 Overview High Quality Audio Capacitors GIGABYTE Ultra Durable™ motherboards use high quality Nippon Chemicon ARE series audio capacitors. These professional audio capacitors deliver the highest quality sound resolution & sound expansion to create the most realistic sound effects for user experience. Dedicated Audio Hardware Zone + Separation on the PCB layer protects the boards sensitive analog audio components. + Separate analog & digital ground to protect against Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). GIGABYTE Ultra Durable™ GIGABYTE Ultra Durable™ debuts on GIGABYTE motherboards, with a range of features & component choices that provide record-breaking performance, cool & efficient operation & extended motherboard lifespan. Ultra Performance GIGABYTE uses All Solid Caps (Capacitors) & Low RDS (on) MOSFETs which are rated to work at higher temperatures to provide a longer lifespan. Ultra Safe GIGABYTE UEFI Dual BIOS™ GIGABYTE motherboards feature GIGABYTE Dual BIOS™, an exclusive technology from GIGABYTE that protects arguably one of your PCs most crucial components, the BIOS. GIGABYTE Dual BIOS™ means that your motherboard has both a Main BIOS & a Backup BIOS, making users protected from BIOS failure due to virus attack, hardware malfunction, improper OC settings or power failure during the update process. Humidity Protection Humidity can play havoc on a motherboards circuitry.GIGABYTEs new Glass Fabric PCB design helps protect against electrical shorts due to humidity by reducing the gaps in spacing between PCB filaments.
