Summary
Bought this to replace my Asrock z77 extreme4 mobo, I was hesitant on purchasing the extreme4 based on bad reviews/reliablity and I was one of those unlucky ones that had problems with it. This mobo is a solid buy.

Pros
Good quality
|
Cons
wish all sata ports were sata 3 and had 2 more internal sata ports
|
Summary
I really like my the Gigabyte Z77X-UD3H. I received revision 1.2 which is the latest version from Gigabyte which is good as it had the latest bios already installed. Gigabyte has a little sticker on two usb ports which were different from the standard location of where one would normally plug in the keyboard and mouse. I used the ones suggested by Gigabyte to install windows 7 without any issue. Also all of the drivers that came on the cd were up to date according the Gigabyte site except for the Via usb3 driver which they have a more current version. I only wish all the sata ports were sata 3 and had 2 more internal sata ports especially as people adding more drives to their system.

|
Cons
Software in windows are useless, no linux drivers on cd
|
Summary
Bought to replace a defective motherboard, i do the job well. Overclocking is easy, voltage are stable. The new UEFI BIOS is realy well made and intuitive.
It also boot fast (no long device checking at POST, it go in 2-3 sec directly to OS boot.)
The VIA onboard audio is good. The software is very simple but the sound quality is way better than the Realtek AL889 on my old motherboard. When i launched my first game, i was like "wow full of sound i never heard"
Overclocking wise, it seem very good, it will go over the spec of my heatsink before going over the quality of this board. More test have to come but it seem very stable and very easy.

Pros
Nice bios interface, Can overclock easy, Good price, Nice setup.
|
Cons
Gave me trouble in first start up
|
Summary
It's not a bad motherboard. I only had a little problem with it making a weird copy of my drives on start up which made it not start windows. But I figured it out. Every part of it is working and it's got nice organized placements for everything

Pros
Decent feature set for the money
|
Cons
only one USB 3.0 header and 6 external
|
Summary
Great board for the price. Lots of higher end features and only skimps on stuff not as many people need. I wish it had more than 6 USB ports on the back, my old board it replaced had 8 and I have a lot of junk hooked up back there. Also only one USB 3 header inside and my case uses 2. Neither of those are deal breakers though.

Pros
Bios interface and easy of setup
|
Cons
Only 2 SATA 3 on board
|
Summary
I like Gigabyte motherboards and the Z77 is a solid product for the price. The only issue i have is the limited SATA 3 connection on board - I have a SATA3 SSD for my OS, and two SATA3 HDD for programs and storage. Not that you will notice the one in SATA 2 mode but.....

Pros
x2 SLI slots a x8 ... Price... apparently overclocks well (havent tried)
|
Cons
These new 90 degree sata connections are annoying... it fits but it made it a little more challenging to fit inside my P180 case.
The biggest con against the board, is the VIA USB 3.0... there are 4 usbs slots... 2 of which are via, I tried to use my G5 mouse, and G930 headset ... both freeze/pause off and on ... they only work properly in the intel usbs slots. I updated these drivers and they still dont work properly... thank fully I got my keyboard to work in the via usb.
The via onboard sound kinda lags when changing the volume ... its okay if you dont change the volume.
|
Summary
I would not recommend this board... I decided to keep it because of the sli potential and because I didnt wanna go through the process of ordering a different board. Ill probably regret not returning it, haha.
For the price its pretty good, but you better have front USBs to use on your case. Otherwise buy a board with INTEL usbs ... via is horrible.
I havent tried any overclocking but it is apparently really good.

Pros
Good quality components, nice BIOS, overclocking potential
|
Cons
No USB 2 for install.
|
Summary
After having to break out an old analog mouse and keyboard to install Win7, this board worked like a charm. Overclocking my 3570 was easy, with an easy to understand BIOS.
