This all new, digital power system provides enthusiast users with exceptional control over the overclocking potential of their GIGABYTE motherboard. UEFI Dual BIOS™ Technology With a superior graphical interface capable of 32-bit color imaging & fluid user-friendly mouse navigation, UEFI Dual BIOS™ makes BIOS configuration a new & exciting experience for novice & experienced users alike. UEFI BIOS also brings native support for large hard drives on 64-bit operating systems. Multi-display support with AMD Cross Fire Flexible graphics capabilities
- Up to 2 VGA cards are supported for 2 way AMD Cross Fire™ (running at x 16, x 4 bandwidth), delivering the ultimate in graphics performance for gaming enthusiasts who demand the highest frame rates without compromising on resolution. 108d B Signal-to-Noise ratio playback GIGABYTE motherboards feature higher capability audio solution with 108d B Signal-to-Noise ratio (SNR) playback quality to deliver high-performance, multi-channel HD audio. SNR is a comparison of the amount of signal to the amount of noise such as hiss present in the signal (expressed in Decibels). A higher SNR equals a better audio experience. For example, 108d B, is a high audio
Specification, as this means the audio signal is 108d B higher than the level of the noise. Introduction The 970A-UD3P motherboard is designed to offer a stable, high-speed platform for delivering amazingly fast data transfer via the GIGABYTE 333 onboard acceleration technologies. Featuring the USB3.0 controller, AMD 900 series motherboards allow users to take advantage of super fast USB (Universal Serial Bus) transfer rates of up to 5 Gbps, delivering 10x faster data transfer compared to USB (Universal Serial Bus) 2.0. Utilizing the industry's first Serial ATA Revision 3.0 solution via AMD SB950 chipset, GIGABYTE AMD 900 series motherboards offer native 6 ports of next generation high speed data storage devices support with data transfer speeds of up to 6 Gbps with RAID 0, 1, 5, 10. The AMD 900 series motherboards introduce a unique hardware design with lower resistance fuses for ensuring lower voltage drops & providing more stable & plentiful power delivery. USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports also benefit from a 3x power boost for better power delivery to power hungry USB (Universal Serial Bus) devices.
