Recently the picture of another Intel Z370 chipset based novelty, namely the Gigabyte Z370XP SLI motherboard, has appeared on the Internet.
This mother card is produced for the 8th gen Core Coffee Lake desktop CPUs by Intel. The specialty belongs to Gigabyte’s super-endurable middle-class line and is the descendant of well-known Z270XP SLI. The new product has inherited the back panel interfaces and PCI Express slots configuration and presumably the audio subsystem as well. Despite having much in common with the previous model, it is cheaper and features its own peculiarities. For example, the p-c board, the I/O cover and radiators are performed with white colour.
Gigabyte Z370XP-SLI got four slots for the DDR4 RAM, three PCI Express 3.0 x16, three PCI-E 3.0 x1, and two M.2 connectors. There are six SATA 6 Gbps ports for drives linking. The processor socket power supply subsystem offers 7 or 8 phases. Back panel interfaces include USB 3.1 Gen2 Type-A and Type-C ports.
