GABYTE AMP-UP Audio: Redefining Motherboard Audio GIGABYTE AMP-UP Audio
combines a range of unique features and technologies that are designed to give
audio enthusiasts and PC gamers more control over their motherboard audio than
ever before. Gain Boost
To further optimize the audio experience provided by the onboard OP-Amp,
GIGABYTE motherboards also debut Gain Boost. Gain Boost provides onboard
switches to select between 2.5x and 6x amplification modes depending on
speakers or headphones being used. Upgradable Onboard OP-Amp
GIGABYTE motherboards are the world’s first to feature an onboard operational
amplifier (OP-Amp), allowing users to physically switch out and try different
OP-Amps which offer distinct and nuanced properties that make the audio
clearer, punchier and more life-like. Additional OP-Amps can be purchased
separately to further expand audio capabilities. Audio Noise Guard
To help protect and insulate the the Realtek ALC898 audio processor and
onboard amplifiers from electrostatic interference (ESD), the GIGABYTE
G1.Sniper A88X motherboard features an audio noise guard that essentially
separates the board’s sensitive analog audio components from potential ESD
pollution at the PCB level. LED trace path lighting illuminates to show the
separation of the PCB layers. Gold Audio Plated Hardware
The GIGABYTE G1.Sniper A88X motherboard uses top quality gold plated hardware
for improved connectivity and long lasting durability for the USB DAC-Up port
and audio connectors. Gold has superb signal conductivity and will not tarnish
over extended periods of use. The Realtek ALC898 audio processor is also
shielded by a gold-plated cover which eliminates electrostatic interference.
Nichicon Pro Audio Caps
The GIGABYTE G1.Sniper A88X motherboard uses the highest quality Nichicon
High End Audio Capacitors at each channel layout. These professional audio
capacitors deliver the highest quality sound resolution and sound expansion to
create the most realistic sound effects for professional gamers. GIGABYTE

chipset. GIGABYTE motherboards offer excellent cooling of the crucial APU power
delivery area, ensuring even the most aggressive and extreme configurations
will be kept well within optimal thermal parameters. ltra Performance
GIGABYTE uses All Solid Caps (Capacitors) and Low RDS(on) MOSFETs which are
rated to work at higher temperatures to provide a longer lifespan.
Ultra Safe
GIGABYTE UEFI DualBIOS™
GIGABYTE motherboards feature 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 OC settings or power failure during the update
process.
Humidity Protection
Humidity can play havoc on a motherboard's circuitry.GIGABYTE's new Glass
Fabric PCB design helps protect against electrical shorts due to humidity by
reducing the gaps in spacing between PCB filaments.
Power Failure Protection GIGABYTE also uses Anti-Surge ICs to protect the
motherboard against power surges.
Electrostatic Protection
GIGABYTE motherboards feature High Resistance ICs which help protect the
motherboard against electrostatic discharge.
AMD Dual Graphics Technology
The AMD FM2+ series platform showcases AMD Dual Graphics technology, allowing
users to further boost 3D graphics performance by adding an additional discrete
AMD Radeon™ HD 6000 series graphics card* to the system. This unique Dual
Graphics technology means users can enjoy higher frame rates on the latest
gaming titles, utilizing the processing power of both discrete and integrated
graphics processors. AMD Eyefinity Technology
Supporting multiple independent display outputs simultaneously, AMD Eyefinity
technology delivers innovative graphics display capabilities enabling massive
desktop workspaces and ultra-immersive visual environments for the ultimate
panoramic computing experience. Multi-display support with AMD CrossFire
Flexible graphics capabilities - Up to 2 VGA cards are supported for 2 way
AMD CrossFire™ (running at x16, x4 bandwidth), delivering the ultimate in
graphics performance for gaming enthusiasts who demand the highest frame rates
without compromising on resolution. riple-monitor support
GIGABYTE FM2+ series motherboards are taking advantage of AMD Eyefinity
technology, to allow users to extend their OS desktop by connecting up to three
high-resolution digital displays. Triple displays mean more real-estate for
enhanced productivity, plus the ability to enjoy panoramic triple screen 3D
gaming thanks to AMD’s optimized Eyefinity driver technology.

cFosSpeed
GIGABYTE motherboards feature cFos Speed, a network traffic management
application which helps to improve network latency, maintaining low ping times
to deliver better responsiveness in a crowded LAN environment. cFos Speed works
in a similar way to an OS driver, monitoring network traffic packets at the
application layer, allowing optimization and improved network performance for
specific applications. 4K Ultra HD Support
4K resolution is the next technological milestone in high-definition
content delivery, utilizing approximately 4,000 pixels on the horizontal axis,
more than four times today's standard HD pixel density. GIGABYTE FM2+ series
motherboards provide native 4K support with FM2+ APU integrated graphics via
HDMI port. HDMI Interface
HDMI is latest High-Definition Multimedia Interface, which is able to
provide up to 5Gb/s video transmitting bandwidth and also 8-channel high
quality audio. Via transmitting uncompressed digital data, HDMI is able to
reduce signal interference as transferring between digital and analog signal,
seen and heard, direct from the source. In addition, HDMI is compatible with
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), which allowing playback of
Blu-ray/ HD DVD and other protected contents. High ESD protection for USB
and LAN (USB3.0 only)
GIGABYTE motherboards raise 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
(USB3.0 only)
On GIGABYTE motherboards each USB port has its own dedicated power fuse
that prevents unwanted USB port failure, helping to safe guard your important
data during transfer. GIGABYTE One Fuse per
USB Port Design Traditional One Fuse Design
for Multi-USB Ports On/Off Charge Technology
GIGABYTE On/Off Charge technology allows you to charge your iPhone, iPad
and iPod Touch regardless of whether your PC is on, in standby mode or even
off. A derivative of GIGABYTE's highly acclaimed 3x USB Power feature, On/Off
Charge enables devices to draw more current from GIGABYTE motherboard USB ports
than standard USB ports allow, so that charging from your PC can be as fast as
with a charger. ErP Lot 6 support
The ErP (also known as Energy-Related Products Directive) is part of the
European Union's environmental regulations policy. It is based on concern for
the environmental as the proliferation of electronic devices continues, and how
to improve energy efficiency for a better and greener life. GIGABYTE supports
ErP and produces motherboards that help you effectively improve system
efficiency.
