Gigabyute issued a press-release where they announce Future Proof 9 Series Ultra Durable motherboards. Today, GIGABYTE introduces several new additions to the Ultra Durable motherboards family. Launching with 17 new models, GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 9 series motherboards sport innovative features geared to provide high end performance.



"In addition to supporting future 5th generation Intel Core CPUs, we are also adding several features normally reserved for our higher end motherboards including high quality audio, networking and onboard overclocking, ensuring our customers will have a 'future-proof' platform.

GIGABYTE 9 Series Ultra Durable Motherboards
Launching with 17 new models, GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 9 series motherboards sport innovative features geared to provide high end performance, a safer computing experience and killer good looks. Including the latest transfer technologies such as SATA Express and M.2 connectivity, exclusive high-end audio features with the Realtek ACL 1150 115dB SNR HD audio, Killer E2200 advanced gaming networking, gold plated hardware connectors and a unique appealing design, the 9 Series Ultra Durable boards are the PC DIY's enthusiast must have motherboards.

Dual Thunderbolt 2 - The Fastest Connection to Your PC Just Got Faster
The new Dual Thunderbolt 2 controller from Intel builds on the success of previous revisions, adding channel bandwidth aggregation to facilitate single channel transfer speeds of up to 20 Gbps, compared to a max of 10 Gbps on previous designs. This allows for incredible data transfer speeds when using high performance storage devices, while also supporting daisy-chaining of up to 12 devices and triple digital display support.

Extreme Multi-GPU Support
Flexible graphics capabilities supported for either 3-Way CrossFire or 2-Way SLI action, delivering the ultimate in graphics performance for gaming enthusiasts who demand the highest frame rates without compromising on resolution.

M.2 Onboard Connector
GIGABYTE 9 series Ultra Durable motherboards come equipped with an onboard M.2 slot, providing users PCI-Express connectivity for SSD devices. Delivering up to 10 Gb/s data transfer speeds, M.2 offers users considerably faster storage performance than current mSATA and even SATA Revision 3 (6Gb/s) storage devices.

SATA Express Connector
GIGABYTE Ultra Durable motherboards feature an onboard SATA Express connector which provides performance far superior to that of current SATA technologies. SATA Express features data transfer rates of up to 10Gb/s, considerably higher than SATA Revision 3 (6Gb/s), which won't bottleneck faster NAND flash technologies in cutting edge SSDs. SATA Express combines the benefits of PCI-Express and SATA to provide much higher bandwidth, allowing SATA Express based drives to perform at similar speeds as PCI-Express based drives. 

Killer Networking
Select GIGABYTE 9 series Ultra Durable motherboards feature the Killer E2200 from Qualcomm Atheros, a high-performance, adaptive gigabit Ethernet controller that offers better online gaming and online media performance compared to standard solutions. The Killer E2200 features Advanced Stream Detect technology, which identifies and prioritizes all network traffic to ensure important applications that require high-speed connectivity are prioritized over less important traffic.

Intel Gigabit LAN with cFos Internet Accelerator Software
Additional GIGABYTE 9 series motherboards feature Intel Gigabit LAN networking, which delivers several performance-enhancing features such as advanced interrupt handling to help reduce CPU overhead and Jumbo Frame support for extra-large data packets.

Also included is the cFos Speed feature, a network traffic management application which helps to improve network latency, maintaining low ping times to deliver better responsiveness in a crowded LAN environment. cFos Speed works in a similar way to an OS driver, monitoring network traffic packets at the application layer, allowing optimization and improved network performance for specific applications.

Realtek ALC1150 115dB SNR HD Audio
The ALC1150 is a high-performance multi-channel High Definition Audio Codec that delivers an exceptional audio listening experience with up to 115dB SNR, ensuring users the best possible audio quality from their PC.

The ALC1150 provides ten DAC channels that simultaneously support 7.1-channel sound playback, plus 2 channels of independent stereo sound output (multiple streaming) through the front panel stereo outputs. Two stereo ADCs are integrated and can support a microphone array with Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC), Beam Forming (BF), and Noise Suppression (NS) technologies. The ALC1150 incorporates Realtek proprietary converter technology to achieve Front differential output 115dB Signal-to-Noise ratio (SNR) playback (DAC) quality and 104dB SNR recording (ADC) quality.

Built-in Rear Audio Amplifier
Specially designed for gamers, GIGABYTE 9 series Ultra Durable motherboards utilize a high-capacity amplifier which is able to drive 600Ω loads, giving gamers a fuller range of dynamic sound with crisper details and less distortion when using high quality professional headphones.

APP Center
GIGABYTE APP Center gives you easy access to a wealth of apps that help you get the most from your GIGABYTE motherboard. Using a simple, unified user interface, GIGABYTE APP Center allows you to launch all GIGABYTE apps installed on your system.

EasyTune
GIGABYTE's EasyTune is a simple and easy-to-use interface that allows users to fine-tune their system settings or adjust system and memory clocks and voltages in a Windows environment.

Smart Quick Boost provides users with different levels of CPU frequencies to choose to achieve desired system performance.

Advanced CPU OC allows users to set CPU base clock, frequency, and voltages, and integrated graphics frequency.

10K Durable Black Soild Caps
GIGABYTE 9 series Ultra Durable motherboards integrate the absolute best quality solid state capacitors that are rated to perform at maximum efficiency for a guaranteed minimum of 10K hours. Not only do they provide ultra-low ESR no matter how high the CPU loading, they also come in customized jet black from Nippon Chemi-Con and Nichicon.

2x Copper PCB Design (2 oz Copper PCB)
GIGABYTE's exclusive 2X Copper PCBs design provides sufficient power trace paths between components to handle greater than normal power loads and to remove heat from the critical CPU power delivery area. This is essential to ensure the motherboard is able to handle the increased power loading that is necessary when overclocking. 

5x (15μ) Gold Plated CPU Socket Design
GIGABYTE 9 Series Ultra Durable motherboards come equipped with a gold plated CPU socket, which means that enthusiasts can enjoy absolute reliability and longevity for the CPU socket overtime, without having any concerns about corroded pins and bad contacts.
