GIGABYTE Z77X-UD5H WiFi Review

GIGABYTE's flagship Intel Z77 motherboard is in the spotlight - GA-Z77X-UD5H-WB WIFI. Is this the best Intel Ivy Bridge ready motherboard to date? LGA1155, Intel Z77.

Is it worth getting this board I like how its bundled with WifI which would be very useful for me.

Nice review and mobo.

kraken what is the spec of your current sys?

[kraken]

Ah help hopefully I'll get this right

Intel i5 2500k
Gigabyte GA-Z68AP-D3
Gigabyte 570 SOC
Alpenfohen matterhorn
I cant remember the Ram but its 8GB
Patriot pyro 120 GB SSD + (ADATA S510 120 GB SSD I have yet to install)
Seagate 500GB

Possibly missed something but my brain isn't working atm

there isn't much advantage in moving to Z77 from Z68 other than full support for ivy bridge and also pci express 3 i agree with wifi being useful though

Yeah not that much difference. I'm just looking to get rid of my motherboard though as it doesn't have USB 3.0 case conectors, and I can't use my 5.1 surround sound headset with it as the onboard sound doesn't have enough jack sockets.

I was just wondering if it was like in the top 5 of Z77 boards, because I would be able to use my headset and it having Lucid Virtu MVP and the USB connectors I might as well get it seeing as though its wifi, before the cable I have running round the house gets wrapped around my neck....

Nice review of UD5H

btw kraken im almost certain this motherboard is in the top 5 if i was in the market for a Z77 it would be on my short list
