Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H Review

PC Mark Vantage

Continuing with results that aren't the clearest things to understand, the stock Gigabyte UD5H result definitely lags behind the Intel board, and although the overclock manages to take the lead in most of the results the Productivity score still doesn't get close. Given that this is identical hardware, but overclocked, it's an odd one. We're not running into thermal issues or anything like that either.

PC Mark 7

Thankfully the more up to date PC Mark 7 rewards our extra performance with a huge increase in the score. 700 points more than at stock and 300 points more than a similarly overclocked 2nd Generation CPU on a Z77 board achieved.

Another good review though I'm not sure IB was worth your (plural) time! I was so hoping that the early reports of heat and similar overclock outputs would be wrong but alas there is very little to pick between these 1155 chips.Quote

^^ Bet you can't wait. Am I right in saying that this board is in direct competition with the P8Z77 deluxe from Asus?Quote
