Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3: Full-Featured Mini-ITX Mainboard for LGA1156 Platform

We have found the Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3 mainboard to have lots of advantages and but a few insignificant drawbacks. Although compact, it is cleverly designed and has nearly all the functionality of its full-size counterparts. We must acknowledge that we said similar words about the Intel DH57JG and Zotac H55-ITX WiFi mainboards we reviewed before, but we could have only said so until we tested the GA-H55N-USB3. Being generally inferior to full-size ATX or microATX products in functionality, the other mini-ITX mainboards may be preferable for certain applications only, whereas the GA-H55N-USB3 makes no compromises. It supports not only dual-core but also quad-core CPUs, allowing to build a modern computer configuration. It offers all the BIOS options you can find in other Gigabyte mainboards and supports the same set of exclusive tools and technologies. It features a lot of interfaces including USB 3.0. The Gigabyte GA-H55N-USB3 even overclocks processors as well as full-size mainboards!
