GIGABYTE Direct Audio Route Design
Z97X-Gaming G1 WIFI-BK  

• Shortest route, no wasted trace.
• Less crosstalk & less EMI.
• AMP positioned close to audio jack for lowest noise.
• Better signal quality and better audio quality.

The shortest route is always the best for audio signals.
The GIGABYTE 9 Series G1™ Gaming motherboards feature the shortest audio communication paths between each critical component, from chipset to audio jack. This reduces the crosstalk along the way, and the very close proximity of the AMP to the audio jack directly results in lower noise disturbance.

With this high quality audio design, GIGABYTE G1™ Gaming motherboards are able to bring users better signal quality for the absolute best audio experience.

Gold Plated Audio Hardware
GIGABYTE G1™ Gaming motherboards pack top quality gold plated audio and HDMI connectors for improved connectivity and long lasting durability. Gold has superb signal conductivity and will not tarnish over extended periods of use. The Creative Sound Core3D™ processor is also shielded by a gold plated cover which eliminates electrostatic interference.
  


Clean, low-noise power for your Digital-to-Analog Audio converter
  
Featuring dual USB 2.0 ports, GIGABYTE USB DAC-UP provides clean, noise-free power delivery to your Digital-to-Analog Converter. DACs can be sensitive to fluctuations in power from the other USB ports, which is why GIGABYTE USB DAC-UP takes advantage of an isolated power source that minimizes potential fluctuations and ensures the best audio experience possible.
