Review of the Gigabyte Z170-Gaming K3 LGA1151 Motherboard. Intel's current iteration of enthusiast processors offering impressive overclocking headroom incurs a fairly hefty premium compared to the previous generation especially if you're opting for the i7-6700K. Unfortunately, the retail version of this CPU sporting a 3 year warranty still teeters around the 300 GBP mark, and falls into a similar budget to the 6-core 5820K. The real savings when selecting the Z170 chipset revolve around cheaper motherboards which usually cater towards the gaming demographic with LED illumination, unusual colour schemes and a comprehensive software suite. It's astonishing to see the kind of performance and bundled list of features on products under 100 GBP. At this price, there's fierce competition and some manufacturers have struggled to outline the value of H170/B150 alternatives due to the narrow difference to affordable Z170 options.
