GIGABYTE Thunderbolt Motherboards Support 4K Displays

By

GIGABYTE today announced that their dual Thunderbolt series of motherboards support 4K resolution monitors in configurations derived from two Mini DisplayPort connectors, each capable of 2K resolution output. Testing was successfully carried out at GIGABYTEs regional facility in Tokyo, Japan with the EIZO FDH3601 high resolution color monitor that is designed for air traffic control and geophysical services.

As the first motherboards to be certified by Intel featuring dual Thunderbolt ports, GIGABYTEs TH models offer up to 10Gbps data transfer speeds from each port. The GIGABYTE Z77MX-D3H TH is the micro ATX form factor board shown below running the EIZO 4K display.

Desktop PC motherboards are all about cutting edge features, performance, and upgradeability, and this is why GIGABYTE was the first motherboard company to adopt dual Thunderbolt ports instead of the single port option, commented Tim Handley, Deputy Director of Motherboard Marketing at GIGABYTE. When combined with other innovative products, such as EIZOs 4K resolution FDH3601 monitor, GIGABYTE Thunderbolt motherboard users can enjoy next generation display options with their existing platform, without having to wait for future 4K resolution standards.
