Conclusion –
So far the Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H WB is looking good. We have a nice design with good component choices. The feature set looks solid and not too overdone. With what we are seeing here we would not be surprised to see some very solid performance from this product. We are a little intrigued by the choice to put a slot that will not work with Sandy Bridge based CPUs, but we imagine that Gigabyte might be thinking that at the point you are looking to drop in a third GPU you might already be spending more on your system. We will be interested to see how the 12-phase power on the UD5H works out as well and if it will be able to let us push our 3770K a little farther than we have been able to in the past. Of course to really do this we will need to worry more about cooling than power. So with that in mind we will be getting this up on our test bench and putting it through our usual paces, and this time we will be adding a couple of new ones in.
