Gigabyte GA-Z77X-D3H: Motherboard Mainstream Murah Dengan mSATA

Reading time:
May 19, 2012

Kelas motherboard D3H dari Gigabyte terkenal sebagai kelas motherboard mainstream. Umumnya motherboard kelas ini tak banyak menawarkan fitur yang menarik. Inilah yang membuat Gigabyte GA-Z77X-D3H berbeda dari pesaingnya. Motherboard ini disertai fitur mSATA yang jarang hadir dalam kelas mainstream.

Solusi mSATA yang dihadirkan pada motherboard ini bukan merupakan solusi baru. Kami pernah melihatnya pada  Gigabyte Z68XP-UD3-iSSD. Pada produk sebelumnya, dia dipaketkan dengan sebuah SSD mSATA dari Intel. Mungkin karena dirasa harga jualnya yang menjadi cukup tinggi maka Gigabyte tidak melanjutkan line up produk tersebut. Kali ini Gigabyte mencoba kembali dengan menggunakan chipset Z77 yang juga memiliki kemampuan SSD caching. Tapi kali ini paket penjualan tidak disertai dengan SSD Intel mSATA sehingga pengguna dapat menggunakan produk pilihan sendiri atau paling tidak memiliki opsi ini untuk digunakan kemudian hari.
