Great deal for a budget system
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I used this board to build a budget dual-core system along with the Intel E5300 CPU. The board works great and performs smoothly. The on-board audio works well with a 5.1 speaker system, but the video is lacking - I would definitely recommend going with a PCI express video card and not relying on the built-in video. |

works very well so far!
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I built a system with this board, with a Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 2.93Ghz 3M 1066Mhz 775 CPU and has been a very faat and stable system! Make sure and run the install disc that comes with your motherboard or go to the manufacturer and download the newest drivers, and you should have no problems! |

Value for the money, a little outdated
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard It works fine and has the basics to get you going. It has legacy support for floppy, older IDE but I would have rather had more PCI-e slots. On board LAN with WoL capability is good, there's enough USB 2.0 and SATA connections for general use. 5.1 audio is through a complicated assigment of stereo mini outs - get a sound card instead |

Bargain Processor
Comment:
Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 Paired this processor with an ASUS P5KPL motherboard running at factory settings with good results. Replaced a P4 HT 630 which has a faster internal bus but I really don't notice any difference in my office and cad applications plus this processor runs cooler! I think it's a really good buy. |

Great value board
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L MotherboardPurchased this board as part of a barebones package (with E5200 2.5Ghz & 2GB RAM but added another 2GB stick). Install and setup were easy - no significant problems. Using onboard graphics & sound, runs great with WinXP. Great value board. |

Great Micro Motherboard
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard Part of a bare-bones system. Installed easily & has worked great since installing Windows 7 Ultimate 32X. On-board video & sound also works very good for general computing needs. Would like to have 2 more SATA connections, but very good for a basic system. |

Piece of junk
Comment:
Apex SK-503 Black Mid-T CaseUpon opening the box and removing the frame, the detachable casing to the front that covers the CD drive and main console started to fall to pieces at the clips that hold it in place. Four out of six broke off instantly after simply removing it from the box. Furthermore the clips that didn't brake are positioned at the top, it makes it just about impossible to undo the clip so you can take off the cover. From what I have read on other reviews, I am confident it performs well, but the assembly and lay out is utter junkof junk. |

Comment:
Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500I bought this in a package deal with an Asus mobo and have been overly impressed with the performance of this processor!!

Fantasktic Buy - Up and Running Windows 7
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I bought this system to replace my wifes aging HP computer. I took all of her devices and drives and put them into the new system and booted her Home Edition XP, then upgraded it to Windows 7 Premium. She is so happy now everything opens in a heatbeat. What a great buy! PS: It is even faster than my new HP with Windows 7!!! |

Works great
Comment:
Intel Core 2 Duo E7500 Processor BX80571E7500 I bought this to replace my wifes P-4. It is so much faster, as I am the one doing the maintenance on the machine. Before, it would take about a minute to boot up. Now it takes about 20 seconds. My wife has noticed faster speeds and better response with this CPU. |

First one was DOA
Comment:
Western Digital WD5000AAKS Caviar Blue Hard DriveNice amount of space for the price you're paying but the one I received this morning wouldn't be detected in 3 different computers. It had different stickers and arrived in a different packaging than what is shown in the pictures (did not have the 'FOUR STARS' logo or the yellow 'ATTENTION' sticker... and the sticked on the HD was mostly blue and had 'Caviar Blue' at the bottom). I'll re-comment on the replacement once it arrives. |

Its great when you get it running.
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard It took me several hours to get this thing running. My OS on my sata didnt have the driver for the mobo, so it wouldn't load. I had to re-install the OS, but its a great mobo and has loads of clocking settings, my 2.4 pen4 is running at 3.0ghz, the only thing is the onboard lan doesnt pick up, you have to do it manually. graphics is 1,008MB, thats right. but not good for gaming. |

Not a bad board
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I bought this for my dad since he didnt have any intergrated graphics that would run windows 7 Aero effects, from an HP tower. Now he is happy with the board and likes it. I would reccomend this board if your looking for a M-ATX setup |

Hangs at ''Starting Windows'' Banner
Comment:
Gigabyte G41M-ES2L Motherboard I have been unable to install any operating system with this motherboard. It consistently hangs at the Starting Windows banner with no hard disk activity. I have tried all the tricks that I know including verifying processor and memory voltages and timings, disconnecting all USB etc. Manufacturer's support has been courteous but of little help in resolving this difficulty. I bought this as a portion of a barebones kit. I am an experienced PC builder |
