The editors didn't like

  • Intel I219V LAN chip doesn’t perform as well as in other boards
  • Neutral
  • Storage performance is becoming limited by the external hardware
  • Rather than the motherboard itself
  • “Don’t let the fresh white colour scheme and flashy LED’s distract you
  • The Gig
  • None!
  • RAM overclocking isn't as good as some other boards
  • But XMP works perfectly
  • Garish design
  • Only six USB ports on rear IO
  • Voltage accuracy when overclocked could be better
  • Dual NICs without teaming seems wasteful
  • UEFI could be more interactive.

  • Is the all new range of GIGABYTE motherboards that are based on the Z170 platform on to a winner, or not so much? Based on what I've observed whilst I had this motherboard on the testbed and while I was playing around with it, I have come to my conclusion...

  • There's little to dislike with the Z170X-Gaming 7 - it is packed with features, looks great and overclocks well too. The colour scheme is likely to be polarising though, and as with the Asus Maximus VIII Hero, while there's a multi-colour lighting system...
