Gigabyte 990FXA-UD5 @ Neoseeker
“Today, Neoseeker is taking a look at another offering from a different manufacturer, the Gigabyte 990FXA-UD5. Despite it being a board for the high-end spectrum of the market, it’s quite a bit cheaper than the Crosshair V Formula. It will be interesting to see how it fares on the overclocking front.”

Intel DZ77GA-70K @ Benchmark Reviews
“I was fortunate enough to have three new Intel Z77 Express motherboards available: the MSI Z77A-GD65 that I’ve previously reviewed, an ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe, and the subject of this performance comparison, the Intel DZ77GA-70K.”
ECS X79R-AX Deluxe @ Neoseeker
“This of course gives the board a sleek look, but beyond the aesthetics the X79R-AX also includes high-end features such as a 14-phase Driver MOS MOSFET that improves the power efficiency by integratting a driver IC and two MOSFETs into an ultra-compact and small package for higher current and frequency at lower temperatures.”
Gigabyte A75M-D2H & A75-UD4H @ OC Club
“I have to say that I sort of had certain expectations about the FM1 platform when these boards showed up on my doorstep. I do a lot of heavy content creation and intense gaming, pushing the graphics to the limit of what they offer. I feared that benchmarking this platform was going to be like watching molasses roll up hill in January.”
ASRock Z77 Pro3 @ TweakTown
“Looking at the box you can see even the cheaper Z77 Pro3 carries with it the same 555 XFast technology we’ve seen on other ASRock Z77 options recently. You can see Virtu MVP is offered alongside ASRock exclusive technologies like ASRock OMG, Internet Flash and On/Off Play technology.”
Biostar TZ77XE4 @ Motherboards.org
“The TZ77XE4 performance is top notch especially for a motherboard at this price point, the board looks great and offers almost every feature you could ask for, so if you are in the market for a new Intel motherboard check give BIOSTAR a chance and save yourself some money for your other system parts.”
ASRock Fatal1ty Z77 Professional @ X-Bit Labs
“ASRock Fatal1ty Z77 Professional mainboard made a great overall impression. It has very convenient thought-though layout, is built with high-quality components, features powerful multi-phase digital processor voltage regulator circuitry. Intel Z77 Express chipset comes with a pretty extensive feature set, but in this case we see an unprecedented functionality expansion using numerous onboard controllers.”
