Gigabyte Ultra Durable 4 Plus
Gigabyte Ultra Durable 4 Plus debuts on Gigabyte 8 series motherboard, with a range of features and component choices that provide record-breaking performance, cool and efficient operation and extended motherboard lifespan. -
Ultra cool
Gigabyte motherboard features heatsink designs that offer uncompromisingly efficient cooling on key areas of the motherboard including the PWM area and chipset (PCH). Gigabyte 8 series motherboard offers both passive, active and water cooling support of the crucial PWM area so even the most aggressive and extreme configurations will be kept well within optimal thermal parameters. -
Ultra safe
Gigabyte motherboard features Gigabyte DualBIOS, an exclusive technology from Gigabyte that protects arguably one of your PC's most crucial components, the BIOS. Gigabyte DualBIOS means that your motherboard has both a 'Main BIOS' and a 'Backup BIOS', making users protected from BIOS failure due to virus attack, hardware malfunction, improper O.C. settings or power failure during the update process. -
High ESD protection for USB and LAN
Gigabyte 8 series motherboard raises the bar in terms of protecting your system, providing advanced electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection for both your Ethernet LAN and USB ports, both common sources of ESD-related failures. Each LAN and USB port is paired with a dedicated protection filter that can withstand high electrostatic discharges, protecting your system from common electrical surges and even direct lighting strikes. -
One fuse per USB port
On Gigabyte 8 series motherboard each USB port has its own dedicated power fuse that prevents unwanted USB port failure, helping to safe guard your important data during transfer. -
Multi-display support with AMD CrossFire
AMD CrossFire delivers the ultimate graphics performance for gaming enthusiasts who demand the highest frame rates without compromising on resolution. -
DVI support
DVI (Digital Visual Interface) is a video interface standard designed for carrying uncompressed digital video data and to maximize the visual quality of digital display devices, such as LCD monitors, digital projectors, and so on. In addition, the DVI interface is compatible with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
