Thread: Gigabyte Massive Motherboard - UD11

Not only will Gigabyte's new behemoth seemingly require a colossal case window in order to show it off, but it also appears to need a ridiculously-sized box. Here you can see it being modelled by Gigabyte's deputy director of motherboard marketing, Tim Handley. This is a picture of the retail package. Yes, we're talking about the actual size here.

The word in Gigabyte's office is that this big boy's whopping PCB has been given the internal moniker of 'OMG-ATX' to describe its dimensions. However, its form factor will probably be given a more sensible name when it's finally released.



The motherboard itself hasn't been given an official name yet either, and we had to blur out some of the logos to comply with an NDA. However, we heard a few murmurs in the office about a 'UD11' that could put the company's all-singing-all-dancing (£400) UD9 motherboard to shame.

UD11? Sweet :)

God knows what kind of case this thing will require. Although surely it can't be as big as an SR-2...

no its bigger i think
sr2 is also huge but there was a case which can house it
but this is tooo big :)
just look at effin box size!!!

Whoa.

Companies are going to have to start building cases quickly if anyone wants to have somewhere to actually house this beast :D

Yeah no crap. With all the junk you can throw in a computer now, my full sized case barely has enough room for it all...
Excellent post, I can't wait to see pictures of this thing.

Nice post, i read elswhere that its a socket 1155 which i dont really understand so will be interesting to find out more facts in time.
I dont think you would use it in a case just leave it on the floor
Gigabyte are really freaking me out

Your also going to need your own electrical power station to power one of these suckers.

Sweet! That looks massive! :D
