ASUS P8Z77-V PRO/THUNDERBOLT LGA 1155 Intel Z77 Intel ATX Motherboard

This Asus P8Z77-V PRO/THUNDERBOLT Motherboard supports Intel 3rd generation Intel Core processor-based Platform and 2nd generation Core i7/i5/i3/Pentium/Celeron processors, Thunderbolt, PCI Express controllers Integrated to support onboard graphics Output with Dedicated chipsets, 2-channel (4 DIMM) DDR3 Memory and 16 PCI Express 3.0/2.0 lanes.

An industry first, ASUS has placed Thunderbolt I/O technology onboard, and are set to revolutionize the speed at which peripherals and displays operate. Featuring a maximum bi-directional speed of 10 Gbps, Thunderbolt is 2 times faster than USB 3.0 and an incredible 20 times faster than USB 2.0. And with the ability to daisy-chain up to six devices without the need for a Hub or switch, that means less overheard for a clutter free computing experience. For example, users can connect multiple native Thunderbolt Storage devices, an HD Video capture device and even an HD display to a single Thunderbolt chain while maintaining maximum throughput. You can also connect a DisplayPort, DVI, HDMI or VGA display with an existing adapter.
