G1.Sniper H6 LGA 1150 ATX Board

The GIGABYTE G1.Sniper H6 is an ATX motherboard built on the Intel H97 chipset for LGA 1150 processors. It supports Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron CPUs and runs DDR3 memory at 1600 or 1333 speeds across four slots.

Suits DDR3 builders; not for newer platforms

This board suits builders assembling a system around a fourth- or fifth-generation Intel processor using existing DDR3 modules. It will not accept newer CPU sockets or memory types, so anyone planning a current-generation build should look elsewhere.

Single x16 PCIe 3.0 slot for graphics

The expansion layout provides one PCI Express 3.0 x16 slot for a graphics card, a second x16 slot wired at x4 speed, two x1 slots and two legacy PCI slots. That single full-bandwidth x16 connection is the specification that decides whether the board fits your GPU needs.

Questions about this item

Does the board support a Core i7 CPU with LGA 1150 socket and 32 GB of DDR3-1600 memory?

Yes, the LGA 1150 socket accepts Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron processors, and the four 240-pin slots support up to 32 GB of DDR3 1600/1333 in dual-channel mode.

Can I run a discrete graphics card at full PCI Express 3.0 x16 speed while adding a second x16 card at x4 and two x1 cards?

The primary slot runs at PCI Express 3.0 x16, the second x16 slot is wired x4 via PCI Express 2.0, and two additional x1 slots are available for extra add-in cards.

What storage and networking features are built in for a gaming or workstation build?

Six SATA 6Gb/s ports support RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10, while the Qualcomm Atheros Killer E2201 controller provides 1 Gbps wired LAN and the Realtek ALC1150 codec delivers 7.1-channel audio.
