GIGABYTE Ultra Durable ™ 4 ClassicHumidity Protection: Moisture can wreak havoc on the motherboard circuitry. GIGABYTE's new PCB Glass Fabric design helps protect against short circuits caused by moisture, reducing the space between the tracks on the printed circuit board.
Electrostatic protection: GIGABYTE Ultra Durable 4 Classic boards incorporate High Resistance integrated circuits that help protect the motherboard from electrostatic discharge.
Power Failure Protection: Permanent damage caused by power surges or outages during BIOS updates can be prevented by GIGABYTE DualBIOS, which automatically activates a secondary backup BIOS. GIGABYTE also makes use of Anti-Surge ICs to protect the motherboard from surges.
Protection against high temperatures: GIGABYTE uses All Solid Caps (condensers) and MOSFETs Low RDS (on) suitable to work at high temperatures, increasing the life of the components up to 50, 000 * hours.
3rd Generation Intel® Core ™ Processors
The new Intel ® Core ™ processors are based on the third generation Intel ® architecture, and are manufactured using its innovative 22nm process system, which allows obtaining a visually optimized processor platform. The third generation of Intel ® Core ™ processors, based on the well-known LGA 1155 socket, supports up to four high-performance 64-bit cores and 8MB third-tier Smart Caches and deliver exceptional overall performance when needed most. UEFI Technology DualBIOS ™ With a superior graphical interface capable of 32-bit color images and smooth and easy mouse navigation, UEFI DualBIOS ™ makes BIOS setup a new and exciting experience for both novice and experienced users alike. UEFI BIOS also brings native support for large hard drives on 64-bit operating systems. On / Off Charge Technology GIGABYTE's On / Off Charge technology allows you to charge your iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch regardless of whether your PC is on, suspended, or even off. Derived from GIGABYTE's acclaimed 3x USB Power functionality, On / Off Charge allows devices to draw more current from the GIGABYTE board via their USB ports than standard USB ports, so charging via PC can be just as fast as with a charger… moreNote: Due to certain limitations of mobile devices, users may have to connect the mobile to the PC before the PC enters S4 / S5 mode to fast charge from USB ports devoid of On / Off Charge technology. Charging results may vary by model.
Designed to Support PCI Express Gen.3 The GIGABYTE 7 series motherboards take advantage of the latest connectivity and expansion bus technologies available on the Intel platform.

Native multi-display support along with DirectX 11 graphics, Intel ® Quick Sync Video 2.0 and Intel ® HD Graphics 4000/2500 ensures new levels of satisfaction when playing 3D and manipulating HD content. Intel® Quick Sync 2.0 Better performance when encoding video
Save precious time by creating and editing video, syncing it with other devices, and sharing it at home or online. Intel Quick Sync Video uses processor hardware, rather than software, to speed up video encoding. DirectX 11 Support Microsoft DirectX 11 provides the spectacular 3D visual effects found today in the latest PC gaming news, and is designed To be more efficient, squeeze out the power of today's multi-core processors and enable sophisticated shadow effects and texturing techniques such as tessellation. Supporting multiple graphics cards with AMD CrossFireX ™ AMD CrossFireX ™ provides maximum graphics performance that enables the best frame rates without compromising resolution, which will be especially liked by gaming enthusiasts.HDMI ™ - The Next Generation Multimedia InterfaceHDMI ™ is a High Definition Multimedia Interface that provides bandwidth to transmit video up to 5Gb / s and 8-channel high-quality audio, all through a single cab you. Capable of delivering superior quality uncompressed video and audio, HDMI ™ ensures the sharpest playback of 1080p content without the usual quality losses on analog interfaces with digital-to-analog conversions. In addition, HDMI ™ supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), making it possible to play Blu-ray / HD DVD content and other protected media. Support for DVIDVI (Digital Visual Interface) is a designed video interface standard to transport uncompressed digital video and maximize the visual quality of display devices, such as LCD monitors, digital projectors, and more. In addition, the DVI interface is HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) compliant. 3x USB Power Boost GIGABYTE boards incorporate 3x USB Power Boost, providing increased compatibility and extra power for USB devices. GIGABYTE's unique USB design can also regulate output over the full voltage range efficiently, greatly improving compatibility with USB devices. Additionally, specific low resistivity fuses ensure lower voltage drops, while providing a more stable and complete power supply. SuperSpeed USB 3.0 GIGABYTE boards boast SuperSpeed USB 3.0 technology thanks to the integrated host controller. With ultra-fast transfer rates of up to 5 Gbps, users can experience up to 10x theoretical improvements over USB 2.0.

Support for ErP Lot 6 The ErP (acronym for Energy-Related Products Directive) is part of the new environmental regulations of the European Union. ErP was born out of growing concern about environmental issues related to electronic devices and about how to improve energy efficiency for a better and greener life. GIGABYTE supports ErP and manufactures boards that help you improve the performance of your system effectively.The Gigabyte B75M-D3H is protected in a white cardboard box. Highlight the Ultra Durable 4 logo print.
In the box we find:
- Instruction manual and quick guide Installation CD SATA cable Rear hood
The board maintains the classic blue color on its PCB. And due to its dimensions it is a Micro ATX board.
Back view of the plate.
The board has a good layout, because it allows us to connect up to two ATI graphics cards and two normal PCI slots.
Also includes a basic heatsink on the south bridge. 4 SATA connections (blue) and USB connections and control panel.
The power phases are unprotected, but lacking utility for Overclock and Gigabyte Ultra Durable 4 technology we do not see it necessary.
2 SATA 6.0 connections.
Finally the rear input and output panel. We highlight PS / 2 connections, digital outputs (DVI and HDMI), USB 3.0, network card and integrated sound card.
The Gigabyte B75M-D3H is a motherboard for 1155 socket with Micro ATX format, B75 chipset, DDR3 memory sockets, support for ATI multiGPU system and SATA 6.0 connections.
The B75 chipset is a chipset specifically designed to fill the gap between basic PCs and large business PCs. What does this mean? Well, it is an excellent chipset regarding quality-performance-price.
In our test bench we have used an Intel i7 2600k and an Asus GTX580 Direct CU II having great results in distributed computing and even with games like Battelefield3 and Diablo III.
The plate brings basic cooling to the south bridge. While the feeding phases are “on the air”, it is understood because it is a product not intended for Overclocking (it does not allow us to perform either). So if you can save some eurillo when acquiring a processor, that is not of the series "K" (multiplier unlocked).
In short, Gigabyte has designed an excellent motherboard for the professional environment and users looking for a mid-range PC but with quality components. And is that the technology "Ultra Durable 4" is a life insurance.
We can find it in online stores for € 67. An unbeatable price !!!
