Overview<br />
Ultra Durable 3<br />
GI<strong>GA</strong>BYTE Ultra Durable 3 design, featuring 2 ounces of copper for both the Power and<br />
Ground layers which dramatically lowers system temperature by delivering a more efficient<br />
spreading of heat from critical areas of the motherboard such as the CPU power zone<br />
throughout the entire PCB. GI<strong>GA</strong>BYTE's Ultra Durable 3 also lowers the PCB impedance by<br />
50%, which helps to reduce electrical waste and further lowers component temperatures. A 2oz<br />
Copper layer design also provides improved signal quality and lower EMI (Electromagnetic<br />
Interference), providing better system stability and allowing for greater margins for<br />
overclocking...more<br />
Benefits of 2 oz Copper PCB
• Cooler than traditional motherboards<br />
• Enhanced durability<br />
• Improved energy efficiency<br />
• Greater margins for overclocking... more<br />

Intel ® Core i7/ Core i5 L<strong>GA</strong> 1156 Processors<br />
The Intel brand new computing architecture based on the innovation of micro-architecture<br />
transforms 3-chip solutions to a 2-chip platform. The next generation Intel ® Core i7/ Core i5<br />
processors with L<strong>GA</strong>1156 package integrate graphics and memory controller to support dual<br />
channel DDR3 memory. Supporting Intel Turbo Boost technology and Hyper-Threading<br />
Technology, Intel ® Core i7/ Core i5 processors provide the overwhelming performance with<br />
optimized power efficiency.<br />
DDR3 2200+ Support<br />
<strong>P55</strong>-<strong>UD3R</strong> support Intel Core i7/ Core i5 processors delivering native support for DDR3<br />
memory up to 2200+MHz by the enhanced design of GI<strong>GA</strong>BYTE, Intel Core i7/ Core i5<br />
processors feature the memory controller integrated directly into the processor die, rather than<br />
as part of the Northbridge as in previous generations, allowing for faster memory performance.<br />
