The cost and performance-balanced combination for professional gamers

BIOSTAR’s latest mainboard, the Gaming H170T is based on Intel’s H170 chipset which is a single-chip design that supports Intel 6th generation socket 1151 Intel Core processors. The Gaming H170T comes with HiFi Technology built inside, delivering Blu-Ray audio. Puro HiFi features an integrated independent audio power design with a built-in amplifier. The technology utilises audio components with an independent power delivery design for a significant reduction in electronic noise producing superb sound quality. Moreover, the HiFi H170T supports USB 3.0, PCIe M.2 (32Gb/s), SATA Express (16Gb/s) and has DisplayPort for monitor output.

There is also BIOSTAR’s SmartSpeedLAN included, which is a free software application that monitors and manages your PC's network behavior. With user-friendly GUI, it allows you to select and prioritise different types of network traffic, including gaming, media streaming, communications or web surfing. You can also set any specific applications, choosing to prioritise or block accordingly. SmartSpeedLAN can feature automatic management options that use adaptive networking intelligence to ensure that you are getting the best online gaming experience over other gamers.

Not only that, this board features a 'moistureproof' PCB design. That means that you can setup an outside kiosk or signage and even in rural or coastal areas with high humidity the board will be robust. There are also X.D.C (eXtreme Durable Capacitors) which are quality solid capacitors to help make sure the board remains rock solid and stable. These are low ESR and high ripple conductive solid state capacitors that provide a stable power supply to the CPU. The life span can also be more than 6.25 times that of ordinary liquid caps.

The board features the latest BIOSTAR technologies such as Charger Booster II which will power up your smart phones and tablets quickly. There is also BIOS Flasher and BIOS online update for easy updating and restoration of the BIOS, as well as BIO-Remote2 for remote control of the system via Android and Apple devices. Also included is BIO-Remote2 technology which gives users a better home theater environment. Users who own either Android or Apple mobile devices are able to access and control the PC remotely. Moreover, BIO-Remote2 also includes both the function of mouse pad and power point presentation modes.

The GTX980Ti VGA card is based on Nvidia’s formidable Titan X single-GPU graphics processor which is capable of gaming at 4K resolution. The GTX980Ti comes with 2816 cores, almost the same as the Titan X’s 3072. This card brings 6GB of onboard GDDR5 memory clocked at 7GHz, and it uses a wide 384-bit bus.

The GTX980Ti has three full-sized display port connections, one HDMI 2.0 port and a dual-link DVI. It is the second card ever with the horsepower for gaming at 4K resolutions without the need for a multi-card SLI setup. This graphics card compares to the $1,000 Titan X’s performance for much less, finally giving gamers a real 4K gaming option without breaking the bank.
