Packaging

The first hint of the Gigabyte Z87X-UD3H being a hidden gem is in the box design. It closely resembles that of the Gigabyte Z87X-OC, but comes with a slightly different color scheme. The big "Ultra Durable 5 PLUS" logo on the bottom-right refers to the board's overall feature set, rather than just the board's power-delivery section as I had first thought. Gigabyte has a fancy website explaining all of the Ultra Durable 5 PLUS features HERE.


The Z87X-UD3H is the entry-level version of this "Ultra Durable 5 PLUS" product design, so what you find in the box is pretty simple, with just the board on top and a few accessories below.
