Conclusion –
So far the Gigabyte G1.Sniper M3 is a well-built product. Gigabyte has chosen some solid components for this build and then put them on what appears to be a well-tuned PCB. Doing this is often a major part of the battle for performance. There are a few items that we would have liked them to give more attention to, but for the most part Gigabyte has covered their bases with the G1.Sniper M3. The feature set is a little light, but also contains enough to make the $180 price tag look good on paper. We will not know how all of this works together until we get this up on the test bench and put it through its paces. For now we will say that if the quality of the design and build is any indication we should see some excellent performance from this board in part two of our coverage.
