Cons:None so far, except for the software on CD was not functional, It was not needed.

Great Motherboard, easy to install and setup. Bios easy to interpret and comes with cd packed with drivers and some useless software. Installed with GTS250 gpu 4gig corsair ddr2 cheapy ram xfi sound card corsair 520w psu. System runs smooth about 20 seconds boot up from power off to windows. Running dual Operating systems just fine.(XP+Vista Prem). |

Pros:Easy and painless install. Very quick motherboard and upgrade. Easy to upgrade bios Comment:
Great motherboard! Bought it to replace a gigabyte k8ns ultra 939 board. Very easy to install, lots of USB ports right on the back panel, and comes with HDMI port. Together with an Intel E7400, this system is lightening fast when compared to the older system. |

Cons:none
Pros:Brand name, high quality assembled, tons of options. Comment:
Bought this mobo to replace my old Gigabyte mobo who was damaged during relocation. It's very good mobo, it has everything you need except crossfire. Tons of USB ports, lots of tweaks and options, what more can I say, with the price match of 127 after taxes its was a steal. Higly reccomended.Cheers |

Cons:the memory clock setting is quite hard to understand
Pros:the quality of the audio subsystemthe build quality is awesometweakers wet dream Comment:
The audio subsystem is great, really great. I put a 30db gain on the mic input and plug my guitar and there is no noise if I don't play. On my sound blaster audigy 2 at 30 db there is a lot of noise. This sound chip is able to output at 96000Hzc24bit without any click and pop.The rest of the board is great. The build quality looks solid. |

Cons:Runs a little warm, not crossfire like other p45 motherboards
Pros:AMAZING overclocker, stable, great looking, lots of expansion slots Comment:
So far this motherboard has done everything i've asked of it plus a little that I didn't as well. Great for overclocking and since i'm a single GPU solution kinda guy anyways, this totally fits the bill. I was going to go with the Asus P5Q board, but found out through reviews/people that it somewhat lacked in that department compared to it's older brothers the Pro and the P5Q-E / Deluxe.Great motherboard!! |

GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail
Cons:It was not the board but the Crucial Ballistix DDR2 6400 ram.( Correction on 11-21-2008)
Pros:Looks awesome, good materials and Ultra Durable Three Motherboard. Comment:
I have always been a loyal fan of Gigabyte with over 15 built desktops using their mobo. The other day, I had another desktop assembled but was told it could only boot with 2 GB of DDR2 6400 Crucial Ballistix ram and would not boot with 4 GB. I took the Crucial Ballistix ram to NCIX at Burnaby this morning and asked for testing. The good news was one of the Crucial Ballistix was defective and NCIX was swift to have it exchanged. Now my new desktop with GA-EP45-UD3R can boot with 4 GB of ram. The bad news was take my advice, do not buy Crucial Memory as they are junk! Buy Corsair, Patriot or OCZ. Why I bought the Crucial in the very first place? It was because there was C$ 35.00 MIR on every 2 GB so buyers beware of junk. But Gigabyte motherboard, they are the best among all other competitors. In fact, I bought three more today.

Great entry level motherboard. Was able to run a 450 MHz FSB with ease (haven't tried to go higher since my RAM is limiting me).Only buy if you plan to always use 1 video card as it only has 1 slot.
