Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard This is a small form factor board. Board was active about 2 hrs then stopped working. Currenly waiting on return status.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Upgraded from a ECS board with similar specs, the old board started failing at post every other boot 4 months after installation. Not only does this board work as Advertised but it blew my expectations away. Nothing but good things to say about Gigabyte, never had a problem with any of there hardware. on a side note if you have never installed a MB in your life there are very good instructions included, dont forget your antistatic strap if you dont have one!

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 CPU and heatsink work well. The processor is a great deal for the money. Only complain: the strips are useless and rather obstruct heat transfer from the processor. After scraping them off and applying arctic silver the unit worked perfectly.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Bought one MB, returned it and then another. Neither worked. Returned for a MSI MB.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Bought this with an Intel dual core prosser and everything worked fine from the start except my Linksys wireless adapter. Windows 7 did not like the software, but finally got it working. Best board I ever had.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Popped a Q9550 in it. No Overclocking used. Solid board for our practice rig (ableton software). Good stuff.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 I took my 5 year old computer and for $300 got a new motherboard chip and memory. It is flying!!! Watched the new doctor who in HD on my big screen and the new parts worked perfectly.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 This processor is so fast. Even though it is older it is the high end of the old so it is still faster than the newer ones. The only difficult part was installing the fan which didn't seem to want to stay in. The fan keeps it very cool. Overall a great buy

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I bought this motherboard as a combo deal with a Core 2 Duo E8200 processor to upgrade my current setup. The board contained ample slots and hookups to suit all my needs, and even has extra bonuses (up to 8 GB RAM, 4 SATA connectors, and the option to upgrade to Core 2 Quad without switching boards) makes this seem to be a solid product that will be used for a time to come.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard My only issues with the MB relate to things that one could easily get from reading the specs prior to purchase: 1) The MB does not advertise PCIe 2.0 support. I'm guessing that this means that a PCIe 2.0 video card will run at the PCIe 1.0 transfer rate. 2) two slots for memory modules (not 4) due to very compact MB Nice feature: onboard video made initial setup easier and is probably good enough for most non-gamers.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L w/ C2D E7500 CPU This board and processor combo has been working great. Just the upgrade I needed for speed. This is my second upgrade on as many computers in our household of 7 computers. Installation was a breeze. Money well spent again. Thanks TigerDirect.

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Fantastic deal if you're looking to build a home-office pc. The integrated graphics runs windows 7 aero smoothly.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 stock cooler is quiet, and is keeping the processor at 37C (stock fan, stock cooler, stock thermal pads, ambient room temp 20C, one rear 80mm case fan.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 For the price it can not be beat. I went with a Duo since my main concern is gaming. Thus speed is more important than a quad core as I do not know of any game that takes advantage of 4 cores or one that is beign developed with that capability. NOt sure how well the fan woudl install as I use water cooling. The cpu snapped in with autority and works like a charm. The price was excellent. I plan on using this cpu till the prices drop on the i7's and I move up to them

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 Good processor for the price

Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I originally was after an Asus, but they were all sold out on black friday. Built this into a new computer last week with corsair 4GB Ram and Intel duo E5200 CPU. Easy to assembly and works well. Bios seems solid. Onboard video and sound are adequate. Had trouble booting new hard drive with Win98 and winXP. Ordered Win7 OEM and it took off like a rocket. Plenty of room for future expansion. The only downside I see is no firewire.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 This cpu is awesome. Running Windows 7 with no problems. Plenty of power for my gaming. Would recommond for anyone look on a budget.

Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 Be careful buying this processor if you want to run virtual machines with WS08 or Windows 7 as the host server. WS08 hyper-v and Windows 7 Virtual PC will not install.
