    DDR4 memory modules are available at a stock frequency of 2133MHz, but memory vendors encode XMP profiles which can automatically modify the frequency and timings of the supported memory modules to work in par with your CPU. With the X99 Series, GIGABYTE is offering a tested and proven platform that ensures proper compatibility with profiles up to 3400MHz.

    What is XMP?
    The synchronization of the memory modules with the CPU is crucial for good performance of your system. DDR4 memory modules are available at a stock frequency of 2133MHz, but as frequency tweaking requires a considerable amount of effort and knowledge, memory vendors encode XMP profiles which can automatically modify the timings of the supported memory modules to work with your CPU and to achieve increased performance.

    * XMP Profile support may vary depending on memory module. Please refer "Memory Support List" for more information.

Designed to fulfill the needs of the high-end desktop segment, the X99P-SLI is the ultimate motherboard for users wanting long lasting quality, unrivaled performance, cutting edge features and great looks that complement any system build.
  • GIGABYTE X99P-SLI World's First Intel® Thunderbolt™ 3 Certified X99 Motherboard

    The GIGABYTE X99P-SLI motherboard is the world's first X99 motherboard to be certified to support Thunderbolt™ 3. This gives enthusiasts that need the tried-and-true horsepower and reliability of the X99 chipset access to the world’s fastest connectivity protocol. Powered by Intel’s own Thunderbolt 3 controller, the new Thunderbolt 3 protocol is available over a USB Type-C™ connector on the back I/O of select GIGABYTE motherboards including the X99P-SLI. Bringing an unprecedented single-wire bandwidth of up to 40 Gb/s -- twice more than the previous generation!


    Support for Thunderbolt™ 3 on the GIGABYTE GA-X99P-SLI motherboard opens up a world of possibilities for enthusiasts or professionals using the X99 chipset. With the unmatched bandwidth that Thunderbolt™ 3 provides, enthusiasts can use new devices such as discrete GPU boxes, external quad M.2 drives, or U.2 expansion drives.

    One of the main advantages of Thunderbolt™ 3 is its ability to carry a video signal, but as X99 platforms don’t have a GPU integrated in the CPU, the Thunderbolt controller needs to link with a discrete graphics card. In order to solve this conundrum, GIGABYTE designed the GA-X99P-SLI with a DisplayPort input on the back I/O allowing users to pair their system to a monitor with a Type-C connector (the required cables to connect the graphics card to Thunderbolt controller are bundled with the board).


    The packing includes Two cables for building Thunderbolt™ 3 function:
    * DisplayPort to mini-DisplayPort
    * DisplayPort to DisplayPort





    Daisy-chain Multiple Devices
    With a single wire, users can now daisy-chain up to 6 devices via Thunderbolt 3, including a monitor with all the GPU power from the discrete graphics card to display high frame rate games at max settings or render 3D models in a flash.
    Compatibility may vary according to system configuration and device specifications.
