Although Gigabyte's contender is considerably more expensive at $230, it's a "no expenses spared" kind of product, going as far as bundling an add-in card for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Fortunately, if you don't need this, the Z77X-UD5H is the same board sans wireless connectivity for $190...

Over the years Gigabyte has taken their fair share of abuse from my reviewer brethren and to be honest much of what was said was right on. Many of the issues resolved around Gigabyte using features that didn’t necessarily benefit the end-user, or...

GIGABYTE has put together a really nice Intel Z77 Express based motherboard with the Z77X-UD5H and it does a good job of ticking all the boxes. Coming in at $189.99 it falls under that important $200 mark and instantly becomes a hit for a lot of...

Despite including connectors for virtually every kind of monitor (and a slot for an mSATA SSD), the GA-Z77X-UD5H is actually less expensive than many similarly equipped competitors. It's an excellent base board for everything from a dual-monitor...

It's always difficult when you're reviewing the first in a line of products. Without much to compare it to it's too easy to be bowled over by impressive performance that on later viewing is only middling, or equally be underwhelmed by...

Still, that slight niggle aside, this is an excellent, well-priced, well laid out board that performs over and above what we would have expected from a £160 mobo from Gigabyte. An excellent return to form for Gigtabyte's motherboard division at...

GIGABYTE is going to have a very strong Intel Z77 product stack. If all of their motherboards perform like the Z77X-UD5H WiFi and the Z77X-UD3H did, they will continue to be a force to be reckoned...
