Included Extras
Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 X58 Motherboard Review - Motherboards 86

The GA-EX58-UD5 doesn’t come with too many “extras” to speak of. This PCI bracket gives users access to two SATA devices and one four-pin molex connector from outside of the case. The included adapter provides the right connections to people who might want to run a couple external SATA drives from their external desktop.

Lastly, Gigabyte threw in four SATA cables (two include right-angle connectors), two e-SATA cables, and a color-coded I/O backplate. Overall, this is not to most loaded motherboard we’ve come across, but the included items do add a little more “bang for the buck” for consumers.
