Gigabyte Technology is a company which manufactures motherboards, graphics cards and other computing hardware solutions. Earlier the company launched the GA-X58A-UD7 motherboard. And we have word that Gigabyte has launched the GA-P55A-UD7, its new flagship motherboard for the P55 platform.
The Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD7 motherboard has some rather interesting features for both power users as well as gaming enthusiasts such as a 24 phase power design, Nvidia 3-Way SLI / ATI CrossFireX, plus support for USB 3.0, 3x USB Power Boost, and SATA 3.0 (6 Gbps). The 3x USB Power Boost is something unique to Gigabyte.
“The P55A-UD7 is a phenomenon if you consider the amount of additional bandwidth generating silicon onboard, constituting a breakaway from traditional motherboard design,” Tim Handley, Deputy Director of Motherboard Marketing at Gigabyte Technology commented. “As such, this UD7 punches way above its weight class and we’re confident that it will take many new performance records on the LGA 1156 platform.”
3-Way SLI which requires extreme bandwidth is made possible thanks to an on-board Nvidia NF200 chip, allowing the P55A-UD7 to deliver great graphics performance to gaming enthusiasts. An incredible amount of graphics and data bandwidth is made available at any given time.
The 24 phase power design gives greater stability during overclocking. The Gigabyte Hybrid Silent-Pipe 2, a fusion solution which includes liquid cooling, screen cooling and an external heat sink, makes sure that the motherboard always stays cool. The motherboard comes with Gigabyte Smart 6 Technology, which offers a combination of 6 software utilities for easier PC system management and for improved performance.
The Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD7 is distributed in India by Avnet, Ingram Micro, Redington and Neoteric Infomatique. The price of the motherboard has not been revealed.
