What is 2x Copper PCB Layer? |
|
Each motherboard PCB consists of a number of layers that are tightly packed
together to form a hard board. The most important two layers are the power and
ground layers that essentially work the same as any electrical cable or plug to power
devices. The glaring difference being that a motherboard is designed to power vast
numbers of components from a single board. So with 2x copper PCBs, the power
and ground layers in GIGABYTE motherboards are doubled to provide a more solid,
durable and cooler system for discerning PC usersUltra Durable™ Family. |
