Unboxed: Gigabyte's G1.Assassin motherboard
We unbox this beast of a motherboard.

That's some good oil stains right there. Nice touch.
That's what we call, in the industry, a shit-tonne of features.
Inside the bog box... another box, decked out with a subtle digi-cam pattern.
And then, your first tantalising glimpse of the board itself. Say one thing for GIGABYTE - it's nailed the premium packaging.
Of course, it's the board that matters, and this giant is a beast.
There's a serious onboard soundcard.
An AK-style banana-clip heatsink.
More heatsinks, this time matching the grips and tactical rails on an M4 assault rifle.
And another 'sink, this time looking like the muzzle and slide from a Heckler and Koch USP.
IO options, including a co-ax port.
The mobo's underside.
The Killer NIC chip, for supposedly super-fast gaming.
Under the mobo itself, a lot more kit.
We love this - a front-plate with eSATA, USB3 ports and an overclocking button.
There's also sheets of stickers.
Lots of them.
And a double-sided poster for the serious fanboys...
... or the target shooting enthusiasts out there. Keep an eye out for issue 124, when we review this monster.
