Socket LGA 1150 mATX motherboard

The GIGABYTE GA-Z97M-D3H is a micro-ATX board built around the Intel Z97 Express chipset for Socket 1150 processors. It accepts 4th and 5th Generation Intel Core i7, i5, i3, Pentium and Celeron CPUs. The layout fits compact cases while keeping the chipset's multi-GPU and overclocking features.

Builders who need multi-GPU in a small chassis

The board supports 2-Way AMD CrossFire for dual-graphics configurations. Integrated Realtek GbE LAN and 7.1-channel Realtek ALC892 audio cover networking and sound without extra cards. Builders who need more than two graphics cards, a different CPU socket or a full-size ATX layout should look at other platforms.

Z97 Express chipset with 2-Way CrossFire

The single specification that decides fit is the Intel Z97 Express chipset paired with 2-Way AMD CrossFire support. This combination enables CPU overclocking and dual-graphics operation on the LGA 1150 platform. Without it the board cannot deliver those capabilities.
