Abstract: Expanded graphics card support, enhanced on-board features that include Thunderbolt on some models, and more-robust voltage control are all good reasons to consider paying a little extra for a higher-end motherboard. Today we examine five top choices. T...
Abstract: Besides two distinct peculiarities mentioned in the title of this article, both LGA 1155 mainboards on Intel Z77 Express chipset have a lot of other indisputable advantages. For example, a discrete Wi-Fi/Bluetooth card bundled with the top model of the two. However, both of them cause one unique inconvenience: both mainboards turned out very sensitive to the type of the power supply unit....
2Way SLI support, Intel NIC, Well placed onboard controls, mSATA port, WiFi/BT4.0 card Included, Dual switchable BIOS chips, Very nice chipset cooling solution, Improved IOR Digital PWM
Voltage options in BIOS can be a little lacking if pushing for extreme performance

Lack of memory overclocking options, Needs more SATA ports
In terms of performance, there is no doubt that the GIGABYTE Z77X-UP5TH is up there with some of the best. While the lack of memory overclocking options and SATA ports feels disheartening, the dual Thunderbolt setup is both insane and downright fantastic...
Abstract: Months have passed and we have already seen a few implementations of Thunderbolt on motherboards. At Computex 2012 , ASUS showed us its execution of the new standard through an add-on card, the ThunderboltEX , which can be installed on select Z77-based mo...
