awesome
- Pros: Looks great, runs fast, like the bios, easy install, great documentation.
This is the 5th gigabyte build I have done. No problems so far.
- Cons: none
- Pros: Fast, responsive, durable, tons of ports and configuration options.
- Cons: Positioning of SATA ports is awkward.
- Other Thoughts: Works beautifully with Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition. Didn't use the onboard video, but otherwise everything works great. Tested two AM3 processors after the fact, both boot right up without any bios updates or anything.
Great MB
- Pros: Booted up straight away without any significant problems. Very stable and great support from Gigabyte.
- Cons: Would only recognize my Phenom II 920 properly after a bios update. Also my memory was initially set to run at 400 Mhz had to force it to run at 533. Neither issue caused the computer not to boot, so no big deal.
- Other Thoughts: It would be very helpful if all the voltage settings in the bios would have the current voltage next to them.
