GIGABYTE DualBIOS ™ je patentovaná technologie, která automaticky obnoví data BIOS v případě, že došlo k poškození nebo selhal hlavní BIOS. 2 fyzické integrované paměti BIOS ROM, funkce GIGABYTE DualBIOS ™, umožňuje konzistentní obnovu paměti BIOS v případě poškození nebo selhání následkem viru nebo nepodařené aktualizace. Navíc nyní funkce GIGABYTE DualBIOS ™ podporuje pevné disky s kapacitou větší než 3 TB (terabajty) bez nutnosti rozdělení a umožňuje tak ukládání většího množství dat na samostatném pevném disku.

Technologie GIGABYTE On/Off Charge umožňuje nabíjení zařízeních iPhone, iPad a iPod Touch bez ohledu na to, zda je počítač zapnutý, v pohotovostním režimu, nebo dokonce vypnutý. Tato technologie vznikla na základě oceňovaného řešení 3x USB Power, umožňuje zařízení čerpat více proudu z USB portu základní desky a nabíjení tak může být téměř stejně rychlé jako při využití klasické nabíječky. Více informací zde.
Poznámka: Vhledem na určité omezení mobilních telefonů může být nutné připojit mobilní telefon k PC dříve, než PC přejde do režimu S4/S5, aby se umožnilo rychlé nabíjení z jiných USB portů, než jsou ON/OFF Charge. Rychlost nabíjení se může lišit podle modelu.

GIGABYTE strongly believes that in 2011, HD audio playback is a standard specification, and as such, we have made Blu-ray audio playback a standard for all of our motherboards.
All of GIGABYTE's 2011 motherboards feature higher capability audio solution with 108dB Signal-to-Noise ratio (SNR) playback quality to deliver high-performance, multi-channel HD audio. SNR is a comparison of the amount of signal to the amount of noise such as hiss present in the signal (expressed in Decibels). A higher SNR equals a better audio experience. For example, 108dB, is a high audio specification, as this means the audio signal is 108dB higher than the level of the noise.
