Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD5 (rev. 2.0)

We have discussed a very appealing mainboard from Gigabyte today. The GA-X58A-UD5 (rev. 2.0) comes in a robust and informative package with good accessories. It has a handy PCB design and broad functionality, traditionally surpassing that of same-class mainboards from other manufacturers. Thanks to its numerous onboard controllers, you can connect as many as 12 SATA drives to it. It also offers three rather than two FireWire ports. Besides legacy interfaces (PS/2, FDD, IDE), the GA-X58A-UD5 (rev. 2.0) provides USB 3.0 and SATA 6 Gbps connectivity. Making full use of its back-panel space, the mainboard helps you do without additional back-panel brackets with interface ports. Its BIOS is user-friendly, informative and rich in settings and we could easily overclock our CPU to achieve a substantial performance boost. Added to that, the GA-X58A-UD5 features a number of exclusive utilities and tools to make it even more pleasurable to use. In fact, we didn’t have any single problem with that mainboard during our tests.
