Gigabyte‘s X99M-Gaming 5 delivers many of the X99 platform’s core features, despite its micro ATX form factor. Support for two-card SLI/CrossFire is present, and there’s also the ten SATA 6Gbps ports for storage nerds. And let’s not forget two additional forms of PCIe storage in M.2 and SATA Express.
Homing in on the gaming market, Gigabyte outfits its mATX board with a Killer NIC and the accompanying software for users to take advantage of network optimisation. There’s also the enhanced audio system that allows for an upgrade to the already-high-end Burr-Brown operational amplifier. And if you own a set of USB headphones, the ‘DAC-UP’ USB ports are designed to deliver cleaner power to the amp.
