Gigabyte GA-Z170X-UD5 TH Socket intel LGA1151 HDMI ATX Motherboard Next Generation 40 Gb/s Thunderbolt 3 Dual Thunderbolt 3 – The fastest 40 Gb/s single-wire connection Powered by Intel's own Thunderbolt controller the new Thunderbolt 3 protocol, which is available over two USB (Universal Serial Bus) Type-C connectors on the back I/O of the GIGABYTE Z170X-UD5 TH, brings an unprecedented single-wire bandwidth of up to 40 Gb/s -- twice more than the previous generation of Thunderbolt! This incredible increase in bandwidth is also accompanied with support for different protocols such as Display Port 1.2 & USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.1, which is backwards compatible with USB (Universal Serial Bus) 3.0 & USB (Universal Serial Bus) 2.0, opening up a world of new possibilities. Daisy-chain Multiple Devices Support for Display Port 1.2 makes Thunderbolt 3 a must have for any enthusiast. The Z170X-UD5 TH is able to support two displays in 4K resolution at 60 FPS or one display in 5K resolution. In addition, Thunderbolt 3 over USB (Universal Serial Bus) Type-C has revolutionary industry-first features such as Power Delivery 2.0, & the ability to daisy-chain up to 12 devices thanks to the Z170X-UD5 TH’s dual USB (Universal Serial Bus) Type-C ports.
