Great board

GIGABYTE GA-MA790XT-UD4P AM3 DDR3 AMD 790X ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Excellent board, great overclock, with Phenom II 720: on air (Zalman 120mm) = 3.5ghz (250x14!!) with only a 0.25v increment.

Cons: Ram was tricky to set at 1.6ghz using corsair ddr3 1600. But have it working, here are the following to run ddr3 on this board: Note I have RAM voltage at 1.65v. CAS# Latency = 9 RAS to CAS R/W Delay = 9 Row Precharge Time = 9 Minimum RAS Active Time = 24 1T/2T Command Timing = 2T TwTr = 6T Trfc0 for DIMM1 = 110ns Trfc0 for DIMM2 = 110ns Trfc0 for DIMM3 = 110ns Trfc0 for DIMM4 = 110ns Write Recovery Time = 12T Precharge Time = 3T Row Cycle Time = 40T RAS to RAS Delay = 7T

Overall Review: Still alittle pricey (compared to other amd boards), but its the new AM3 what can you expect...

Comments: its limited to the size of the memory card, which I believe is 1GB. I read that at full resolution it records 2MB/S, so thats about 9 minutes with a 1GB card.

buy me!

Comments: This is THE CPU to buy as of 2/2005! For the money and performance it cannot be beat. Coupled with an MSI K8N, stock speeds is lightning fast, boot time of 12 seconds!(xp/western digital raptor drive) Im not a big overclocker, so I went with cheap corsair value ram, set the ratio so the ram wasnt overclocked, and set the htt 250x4, running at 2.25mhz with NO voltage increase! running at 3400 speeds for 3000 price! with basic ram and cooling!
