Take ONE, Get TWO - new GIGABYTE upgrade programme
- Thread starter GIGA-Man
- Start date
haha great thanks!
Are there going to be any equivalents of the z97 g1 wifi bk in the 170 range?
Hopefully it will be a better board this time around. Like with wireless built in rather than a card, and onboard sound with capability of doing dolby digital live over optical, among some other niggles.

Gigabyte's upgrade page still says "more information coming soon".
Although I've decided not to pursue this as Skylake is not a viable upgrade, and my GB boards were too problematic, it's massively disappointing that this has still not moved forward despite Z170 having launched 7 weeks ago. I'd like to exchange my boards so I can sell the new ones.
I'd imagine most people who wanted to take up this offer would have been early adopters. Maybe Gigabyte knew few people would upgrade from LGA 1150 to 1151.

I'd say from the very opening post that the answer is no!
