14 DAY TRIAL // Since CES is in full swing, new products are being spotted one after another, and Gigabyte has prepared quite a few motherboards, like the G1 series of socket LGA 1366 platforms.
Gigabyte has already unleashed a number of new mainboards, like the mini-ITX model based on AMD's Fusion. In fact, even the G1.Assassin was detailed no long ago.
Granted, the entire G1 collection was revealed several days ago, but only now have pictures begun to be paired with the specifications.
The other two products in the series go by the names of G1.Guerilla and G1.Sniper, both of them featuring the same X58 chipset as their aforementioned sibling.
Even at first glance, they are shown to be different form what one may expect, as they do not have the blue PCB, going for a black/green color scheme instead.
The other thing that might stand out is how the boards are not made for the Sandy Bridge series of Core i processors.
Regardless, the socket LGA1366 platforms come with an 8-phase power and three PCI Express x16 slots each.
With that to enable very powerful SLI or CrossFireX multi-GPU setups, Gigabyte also threw in six DDR3 memory slots.
To this are added six SATA 3.0 Gbps ports, two SATA 6.0 Gbps connectors, USB 3.0 and, for excellent online game performance, the Bigfoot Networks Killer E2100 network controller.
What's more, the G1.Sniper features an on-board Creative SoundBlaster X-Fi Digital Audio Processor (20K2).
Of course, both have their obligatory I/O panels, with LAN, USB 2.0, audio ports and all other assorted plugs and outputs.
Finally, the two models are designed with the Ultra Durable 3 PCB and the DualBIOS feature, plus one-button overclocking.
Unfortunately, reports have not yet managed to uncover any sort of pricing and availability details, though Gigabyte shouldn't take too long before mentioning them.
