Gigabyte Z77MX D3H TH motherboard review
Posted by: Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 10/15/2012 08:42 AM [ 9 comment(s) ]
We review the Gigabyte Z77MX D3H TH motherboard. The Gigabyte Z77MX D3H TH is intended for Intel's 22nm Ivy Bridge processors released moments ago based on Socket LGA1155 however the motherboard also supports Sandy Bridge processors like the Core i7 2600K. This particular motherboard is mATX based and thus has a very small footprint. That doesn't mean though that there is a lot of power harbored in it, contrary it performs really well and even can overclock pretty good. Not bad for a 135 EUR motherboard eh ? Next page please where we'll start-up the review.

Just completed an Ivybridge build for a friend with this board. Cracking little board imo.

I'm really liking Gigabyte at the moment. A couple of the rigs I use often are both based on Gigabyte boards. I have to say; their attention to detail is very good. Everything I've seen recently from them has been built really well and priced quite well.
I especially like the little dust-caps they are putting on all their connectors. That and the fact their hardware seems robust and very reliable.
...anyway great review of a very interesting product. I reckon this board would make a fantastic HTPC with huge potential for "under-TV-gaming rig".
One minor gripe though - I <3 the "baby blue color design". My graphics card matches it too! Aesthetics are only a factor if you have a case window anyway....

Ähm...i dont need to see how the different CPU are working.
I want to see how the Gigabyte is performing against OTHER Mainboards.
So i'm sorry to say this review is useless.

Thanks buddy, that is similar to your comments then! Now perhaps physically open your eyes and look at the included Z77 MPower - Z77 Gigabyte DH3 - Z77 Sabertooth TUF and GBT Z77MX-DH3-TH results.

Sorry dude, but what i see is a hugh mix of 10000 cpu and MoBo Combos.
Who will see between?
For the next time one offer, take ONE CPU, take 6-8 MoBo's and compare them.
And please, dont overclock the CPU for this kind of tests. Much people DON'T overclock their hardware, and what is the use for them if they see a overclocked system, i dont know, you?

This, "The Gigabyte Z77MX D3H TH is intended for Intel's 22nm Ivy Bridge processors released moments ago...", really caught my attention and made me read the entire article. Even though I'm not the least bit interested in any small-form motherboard at all.
I thought I'd missed some new cpu release, which really had me worried as I've just bought and received my 2nd i7-3770K and the above statement made me afraid it had just been outdated.
I believe that should've read "months ago". Not "moments ago". Or did you mean the motherboard had just been released?
