14 DAY TRIAL // Gigabyte, like other motherboard and graphics card makers, has a technique that grants its platforms a higher endurance and stability. It so happens that the latest incarnation of that technique has arrived.
Dubbed Ultra Durable 5, the motherboard design has been demonstrated on video for the benefit of prospective overclockers.
If we're reading things right, Gigabyte took two 1,200 W power suppliers, wired the Z77X-UP7 motherboard to three DC load testers and subjected the CPU socket to 2,000W.
The energy is enough to run 25 Core i7-3770K central processing units and was delivered through 32 phases of power regulation.
If you have five minutes to spare, watch the video above for more details. Even if this maximum power delivery is high enough to be impractical, it's still quite the feat.
