We used the Bioshock Infinite‘s demanding ‘Ultra' setting and a 1920 x 1080 resolution to push today's gaming hardware. Our data was recorded using a section of the game, not the built-in benchmark.
We used a 1920 x 1080 resolution and Metro 2033‘s built-in benchmark set to ‘Very High' quality to offer an intense challenge for the gaming hardware while also making playable frame rates a possibility.

Strong gaming performance is shown by the G1.Sniper Z87. Gigabyte's motherboard manages to take a narrow, single-frame lead in our Metro 2033 chart, but it can't quite match the Metro: Last Light performance level set by ASRock's Fatal1ty Z87 Killer.
Just ordered it from OCUK – using it for a new build in the new year. good price.
nice colour scheme, nothing I have would match it, so would be quite a change over from my asus board. Gigabyte boards t his year look the best though, no doubt about it.
Its about time these companies put more effort into the onboard audio, so good move gb.
I always really like how they put power and reset switches up close to the memory, they are a godsend when testing things.
I bought this board and its been great – rock solid at 4.4ghz, as I dont like pushing my CPU too high – they run hot. not like ivybridge.
Very well written review, looks like a winner for its price point.
Is anybody intending to buy this board in hope of connecting it to a non galvanic usb dac in order to minimize noise transfer?
Of all the reviews I’ve seen so far, I’ve not seen one that goes into depth regarding the usb dac-up feature yet seem to be concentrating on the performance of onboard sound only.
Hi guys, between this Gigabyte and the Asus Hero, which one is better choice for a gaming rig?
