Easy to install and configure

Quick delivery of the Mobo and other items I had purchased. However it would not work in that it would not POST. However as always the support was awesome from both this site and Gigabyte. I was asked to RMA the mobo and having got a replacement tried it out. Happy to report that mobo now does a POST and I was able to finally use my machine. However one of the memory slots (2nd one closest to the CPU) does not work. Putting any memory in that slot results in beeping and the POST not go forward. Will reach out to the support folks for help on this.

Nice and easy and fast (on XP)

I have not built my computer yet. Received the motherboard promptly and was shocked at the just about total lack of any packing pellets.Just a wisp of paper.Little more than an invoice with no pellets or air bags.

easy to install. works well with the software that comes with it.

Very easy to set up; Took around 2-3 hours, as this was my 4th build. Driver installation was a breeze. Paired with AMD Phenom IIx2 550 and was able to unlock 2 cores without fashing bios. Very satisifed

Istalled megabyte m.b. with Amd athlon II x2, I thought my last build was fast. Web browsing, downloading, and video playback is awesome.

Purchased the mother board and processor combo, Had to send the board back for exchange. 4 days later had the new board and it has been running flawless for a couple of weeks. Like anything you buy no matter how good it is, there is a chance of it not working. I still will buy products from this site.

Does all it was supposed to. Very satisfied.

With the economy these days, you see nothing but people paying with the Arms and Legs! With this MB, it has a thousand features that one may not use. I am big on my Music! My old MB setup had a 1.0 Windows Experience. Now I am sitting at a 4.3. Huge Upgrade! Get the AMD Quad Core with this MB and you will have a 7.1 Windows Experience just on the CPU!!! I recommend HIGHLY!!!!

I bought XFX GF8200 before this one, which I have to exchange twice. XFX one dose not work with my Athlon II X4 620!! After I got this one it works great! If you are not hardcore gamer, and wants to watch HD movies(it plays 1080p videos smooth), and do web surffing, you need to buy this. The video card is great. If you overclock 500Mhz to 700Mhz, you can play FPS games smoothly(ofcourse on middle level settings)

it has so many features on it and works well with the AMD2 phenom x4. my only conplant is that the drivers that come with are causing some problems. im trying to run it with XP and it doesnt work well together. im upgrading to windows 7 pro. so i'll see how that works after that. hands down great buy though. i love being able to dedicate what ever amount of memorey to the video card.

My first board arrived DOA waited a week and the second was DOA switched to Asus everything works fine. Gigabyte customer service is no help either!!

I think the on board video was using a lot more RAM than I had expected. My system said it was only utilizing 2.75 GB of the 4.00 GB. Now that I've installed a separate video card my system utilizes 3.25 GB. I'm using 32 bit Windows XP. The board itself seems to be of high quality! The included EasyTune 6 program auto over-clocked my AMD Phenom II 550 from 3100 MHz to over 3800 MHz! My system runs fast and smooth!

I purchased this board after looking and comparing reviews of several popular boards. I was very much impressed with the functionality and features of this board. Installation was a breeze. The Board worked flawlessly.

This mobo is top notch to say the least, can't imagine why you'd need anything better then this, and at this price its a steal.

I got this board with a amd phenom 2 550 BE. This combination was the best choise I could have made. I can't believe how easy I can overclock this board! Im definatly impressed by the quality of the product also. And the price! I am a gamer and I highly recommend this board if you value framerates. FAST board.. WHATCHA WAITING FOR!!!! Stop reading and buy it!!!!

I love this motherboard. I wish I bought it for my computer too. I love the 5 SATA ports, dual channel memory, ect. Very easy to work with and it came with the drivers on disc, the last MOBO I bought you had to download from their web site. PITA.

Comment:
Been over 3 weeks now and this board has surpassed my expectations. Built a system from scratch and has been great.

Comment:
This motherboard has all the ports and accessories you would ever need! Things do tend to get a little crowded, specially near the video card, but everything does fit. I only wished it had DDR3 RAM, instead of DDR2, but runs fast anyway.

Comment:
i bought this motherboard assuming it was steal but when i opened it up i found a big problem ,

Comment:
I like this Gigabyte board. I thought the graphics on it would have been better being has HDMI & digital video built in. I put in a Sparkle GeForce GT220 PCI-E graphics card along with 6gig memory & an AMD Athlon II X-4 630 processor. Runs great. Like everyone else,the video card covers one of the PCI slots. The book and Tech support says only use 2 memory slots or all 4. I'm using 3 with 2gig in each and works great. I've built lots of computers and this board is the best. Hey, I've been buying from you for years. Way to go!

This is working perfect, and the board took care of some file trouble. THAMKS, THANKS,

This is a great board. I used it to build a gaming machine. Took less then an hour to setup, everything worked on the 1st try. It unlocked my Phenom x2 550BE to a quad core. Tons of over clocking features as I'm running at 3.5GHz with ease. The only issue is my 9800GT video card overlaps 3 of the sata ports. I only use 2 so its not a problem. Just something to think about if you plan on setting up raid with a larger video card. This is the best value I could find being on a budget, I am 100 percent pleased.

Built my new system back in the Fall of '09 originally with windows 7 64-bit RC. Now running Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate. Works like a champ, no issues whatsoever. It's coupled with a Phenom II 955, HIS Radeon 4870, 8GB of OCZ 1066 RAM, a 1000W Ultra X3 PSU, and all jammed into a LANBOX Lite case. I've read some reviews that 1066mhz does not work with this board; They are wrong. The only thing this board could have used is dual LAN, but that's being extremely picky. I'm very pleased with this Gigabyte product.
