Gigabyte Shows Worlds First Dual-Port Thunderbolt Mainboard


Well-known mainboard manufacturer, Taiwanese company Gigabyte has just announced the new Series 7 mainboards that feature two distinct Thunderbolt ports for external devices, on its official website. The mainboards use Intel chipsets and support Intel processors.

The two Thunderbolt ports allow the connection of up to 12 devices plus 3 digital displays simultaneously and provide a huge 20 GB/s data transfer bandwidth.

This is enough to transfer 1 TB of data in just five minutes, says Gigabyte, but you need a medium capable of reading data at such high speeds and, most importantly, a medium capable of writing data so fast.

Gigabyte’s new motherboards allow users to daisy chain up to 12 devices simultaneously and also keep up a fluent DisplayPort traffic through the same port at the same time.

The most important point to mention is the fact that the external devices that may benefit from such a high bandwidth are usually considerably expensive by themselves.

The motherboards featuring the Thunderbolt dual-ports are Z77X-UP5 TH, Z77X-UP4 TH, Z77MX-D3H TH.
