Phenom II x6 AssistanceLow-cost Ethernet adapter SUCKSOnly 1 PCIe x16 slot Purchased this three months ago for a budget gaming rig. The initially one worked, but my Computer froze every single 5 minutes immediately after re-beginning. I e-mailed the manufacturer and they didn't even read my e-mail. I sent 5 more more than the course of the month, with no answer.I finally known as the firm, and not only was the representative very mean, but he hung up on me... I referred to as the moment additional and the lady was really nice. I managed to get a new board.I have got to say, the Ethernet Adapter is terrible. At times it doesn't even show up in Device Manager ྪ% of the time) I have to unplug my Computer from the wall socket for two mins and restart for it to operate once again. Sometimes it lags, and requires 30 seconds to load a internet site ྴ% of the time I am surfing the web).One particular of the USB ports doesn't work... That's just sad.Anyway, I purchased a Ŭ 10럼 ethernet card from Micro Center to replace the adapter constructed in, and it operates perfectly, and is a lot quicker. Other than what I pointed out this board isn't as well poor.

Been operating a phenom II X6 on this board. Fired up appropriate away on first create. I haven't had any concerns whatsoever with the board. Plenty of room to perform around. I did install an aftermarket supercooler for the CPU and it was a tight squeeze, but so far, so very good. I have been really pleased. NO BSOD so far and I am content. Would have liked a second Graphics lane, but dang with a board this quickly, I don't personal a game however my card can't deal with.

Comment:
Decent board, I have often had excellent luck with Gigabyte gear. Value. North Bridge heat sink attachment is a little flaky so be cautious when handling board. This board lends itself to a price range technique well. Paired with a Phenom II 555 BE, Mushkin Silverline DDR3 1333, Western Digital 1TB Black. All from Newegg, all operates effectively.

Wonderful AM3 board for beneath 贄, full featured and straightforward to use. Has USB three. None the description says it all you get precisely what's described.

Comment:
Plenty of room and connections.Solid construction and the computer software that comes with it makes it effortless to keep updated and OC some items. just ignore the rebate

Characteristics, 16G ram capacity with inexpensive dimms driver support for network sucks on win7 64. I solved my difficulties by obtaining an intel pic-e card and disabling the onboard card.

Comment:
Excellent board. Lots of BIOS options for overclocking and what not. Has USB3 ports. Haven't had any complications so far. Working with this with a Phenom II 955 and some G.Ability 1600 DDR3 ram. When I initial started out it up, the default settings had my ram clocked at 1333; basic enough, just went into the BIOS and fixed that.

Comment:
Nice looking board. Lots of space for my ATI 4770 video. I have read that this board is full of OC attributes but in no way got the board to perform to come across out for myself. If you have the Zalman 7000 series style CPU fan, don't buy a fancy mem stick mainly because it will flare out too far and the taller fancy mem heat spreader will run into the fan fins at the initially mem bank. Typical style mem heat spreader will clear although. Following a week of fiddling with board decided to do my assessment. Board did not perform for me. Continuous reboot challenge from post. Does not even give me the bios post. Power on, beeps when then it reboots. Was in a position to access bios as soon as, loaded fail protected, save, booted with usb os, loaded install but following it reboots it goes straight into its reboot difficulty once more. New develop so all equip is new. Paired board with AMD 655. Swapped out PS,HD,Video,mem with recognized operating parts and nonetheless have similar challenge. Right after as well quite a few failed reboots, a box appears at the post screen saying reboots due to excessive overclocking. I blame bad bios from factory mainly because in no way been in a position to get in to OC from the start. It has been three days now and Gigabyte tech assistance has not even opened my difficulty ticket email so I am doing a refund while I nonetheless can. This has been 2 for two with Gigabyte so I'm a small iffy on acquiring Gigabyte once more. Manufacturer Response:Dear Client,Thank you for your comments.

For the last5 years my boards have been Gigabyte & I've under no circumstances swayed from AMD cpu's. This board anf the UD3P are for all intent, identical except for the two - usb 3. connectors.I've read of some having add-in card difficulties. I find this difficult to believe as each Gigabyte mb I've owned has accepted add-on's of all types. ie. further usb 3 by way of pci-e 1x or eSata connectors with an additional internal, plus numerous other people. Gigabyte boards accepted all varieties gracefully.This was not so with msi, asus, and much more. And these were not shabby boards either, all were deluxe with head turning functions. But right here I am, and under no circumstances have I been as content as with this 'simple' board that has some genuine good features also.No other boards have stood the test of time with me. A thing constantly burnt out, be it a boards hd controller, to some basic resistor burning out. Near every single other board went. Devoid of more than clocking no less.Gigabyte builds for stability, the dual bios makes a statement, a darn go Wish there was a pci x2 slot(s) and/or this identical board with two pci x16 slots instead of the a single No complaints and a single of the most 'stable' boards I've ever run. It's also a dream for those who tinker and clock.About the 6 core problem. Each MA770T variety board is 6 core capable. These days, the way issues evolve, you have to learn to expect to do a bios upgrade. And it's to your benefit! Specifically with AMD, their design is evolving yet stable and compatible.

Affordable. Died. Always gets BSOD. Replaced memory... tried re-installing Windows 7, won't even get total the load method of the install until BSOD. Set BIOS to failsafe, and so on.

Effortless, easy, easy install.Outstanding excellent. None. Easiest motherboard install I've completed. I've installed MSI, ASUS, ECS and Biostar. This was the most clearly marked motherboard I've ever seen. Though the manual was also top rated-notch, I did not need to have to use it.

Comment:
This factor is amazing, you must know the layout before you purchase it with the brilliant images Newegg has for all their products, so I don't know why folks complain about exactly where the SATA ports are and such. Every thing works wonderful, never ever had a single challenge given that the 1st time I turned the personal computer on, look beneath for create items. Absolutely nothing, the RAM slots are a small close to the CPU, but if I can fit my Coolit Eco on it, there's a lot of space for all types of CPU fans. I got:This boardCorsair Dominator RAMCoolit Eco water coolerHIS 1GB video cardNZXT M59 caseEverything fits excellent.

Applied this in a create for my stepfather. Had no issues whatsoever with setup.Full featured as far as slots and plugs are concernedUSB3 ports will come in handy... ultimately... possibly. Minor complaint-Front audio header is in a stupid spot (right next to the rear panel), most situations have a long enough wire for this... but it nevertheless looks "bleh." Nice board. I am a fan of Gigabyte since they have yet to disappoint me, and use good controller chip-sets for their peripheral functions (fire-wire, usb3, sata, etc)

Comment:
Well constructed general. Fundamentally just a motherboard. Cost was definitely suitable. :) Northbridge Heatsink is fastened with spring-loaded clips, and 'rocks' simply. I added thermal paste to it to assure fantastic connection amongst the heatsink and the actual Northbridge Chip, thinking of this replaced a different board in which the Northbridge melted. I've been a Gigabyte fan for a few years now, and in regards to general top quality, this doesn't disappoint.Please note: This Board calls for an eight pin CPU Energy Connector. The board will not begin up with out it. You may well want to appear for an adapter if your energy supply comes with the typical 4 pin CPU Power Connector.

Comment:
Board does every little thing it claims. No problems with the bios and every thing booted up on the initially run. I've been making use of Gigabyte boards for 5 years now and they are still going strong, I've yet to have 1 show up DOA or give me any BIOS issues. Strong board. none

Comment:
outstanding overclocking abilities, USB 3., all the excellent capabilities listed beneath 'specifications'... it is fairly the awesome board to be honest. RAID works flawlessly. BEEWARE - like other people have said, i As well was misled to believe this board supports the X6 processor right from the getco. it does NOT. you have to do a BIOS update very first. went to fry's, purchased a X4 965 BE, installed Windows 7 x64, updated the bios, then returned the CPU :). Thank You Fry's! Newegg failed me on this one to be sincere. false advertising. you need to have to update the bios initial to have the new X6 supported.

Comment:
Except for HD challenge with 1.5TB drives every little thing appears to work as advertised. Impressed with four PCIe x1 slots (although a single unusable mainly because of video card thickness). Would perform out fantastic as a media process with three dual turner x1 cards. Can not get SATA 1.5TB drive to operate. Initially able to get Mythdora to load once. Drive than seemed to fail. Could not get either Mythdora or XP to install. Was in a position to substitute a SATA 160 GB drive and could carve out a ten GIG XP partition and a 145 GB Mythdora. Both installed flawlessly. Confident 1.5TB drive was poor so had it replaced. Replacement drive showed the similar problems. Couldn't even carve out a ten GIG XP major and have it full installation. Always failed although attempting to set up XP (not always at the very same spot). Drive failed SeaTools's Short Test. Have because replaced PS and drive cables. Have not however been in a position to resolve problem. Program to swap Seagate ST31500341AS with one more brand to see if that resolves difficulty. If that doesn't function will attempt 1TB drive. Will update when problem resolved (or I give up). As major objective is for a media method with big storage capacity I could not justify far more than one star.

I adore this motherboard, you really should know how close the RAM and CPU are before you buy it with the great pictures Newegg provides for all their merchandise, so I don't know why folks complain about the distance in between the two. Otherwise It functions excellent, no difficulties whatsoever. None, performs good.

Lots of characteristics for the price tag Auto-shuts off soon after 30 seconds to five minutes What a nightmare this board has been. I bought it a couple of months ago and built a new method (Linux). Every little thing worked wonderful for a few weeks, but then the technique just started shutting off with no warning. It got to where it wouldn't even get via the boot procedure prior to shutting off.Newegg would not RMA the board because I had removed the UPC symbol for my rebate. I have RMA'd it twice by way of Gigabyte (first time they just flashed the BIOS and were surprised the challenge persisted. duh.). The replacement board also has the issue. I feel there's a basic style flaw with this board, but all Gigabyte will do is replace it however once more.I have replaced it with a affordable MSI motherboard (ALL the other hardware is identical), and the MSI board functions flawlessly.Do not purchase this boat anchor.

It looks very good and uBuntu run well on it. I am surprised that the suitable driver don’t come with it. I have the deck “AMD 7-Series Utility DVD” the drivers on this disk are to be installed following windows. Like it stated in the manual. In the manual it did not say anething about this. I will be differ skeptical with Gigabyte motherboards and do a lot far more resertch and rading of blogs before buing yet another motherboard form aney one. CCyberpower Computer need to have gave my all the drivers to run all my hardwere in the box.Microsoft wants to begin seeking at Linux operate and get to work fixing there SO….. I perches this with no OS because I have a win7 64bit desk. During setup windows asked for a driver that was unnamed. I looked on the internet at some blogs they say it needs an IDE and or a ata controller driver. I have been unable to install windows 7. Do you have some secret drivers you can share? I was in a position to install uBuntu 10.ten 64bit with no complications. Is this just a Windows thing! To make me understand Linux. Manufacturer Response:Dear Client,Thank you for your comments.

Great MOBO, no concerns and wonderful get for the $, nonetheless see cons. WARNING - Be sure to use an X4 quadcore to flash the bios Ahead of you install an X6 6 core processor or the mobo will not recognize the X6. Im certain the bios will come with updated bios soon but as of right now they are not up to date.

Comment:
Board feels well constructed and functions flawlessly. Much faster than an old setup that I've because replaced. No matters to report. I applied to stick with Asus boards, but immediately after reading good comments about this particular Gigabyte board, and seeing how decent the price was, I decided to give them a shot. So far, I've been completely impressed with my buy.

Comment:
Fantastic board. No complaints atm

Comment:
Good capabilities for the cash: SATA & RAID 6GBs / USB 3/ AM3 socket-assistance for AMD X6 CPU/dual BIOSBoard is supposed to overclock simple-not going to use.Extremely effortless to install XP OS. Board went by means of sandra free burn in tool for a couple of days with no issues. May have included an e-sata port also.Can't seem to get the ethernet to function in GigE mode. If you appear at the layout of the board and CPU power connector-it is set for a best mounted power supply. Unless power provide manufacturer is generous with cable length it may possibly be difficult to route entirely off the board-in particular if you have a extended PCIx16 video card.

Gigabyte GreatNess....i have utilised Gigabyte for my final 9 builds (Intel/AMD). Super solid, Fantastic BIOS & Wonderful help. Gigabyte R0XXX0Rz Not sure anyone would want to purchase this board when the 870 AM3 is just a few $$$ more.... Again I'm not clear as to why several motherboard manufacturers are releasing AM3/DDR3 boards with the old 7xx chipsets.....lower value I suppose?
