Conclusion and final thoughts

The board was very impressive, and I must say it did live up to the expectations I have for a Gigabyte board. Not only did it live up to those but it smashed through them, and set a new record for me as for the ease of overclock and ease of usability.

Aside from the issue with tri SLI needing 8 expansion slots, the board is amazing and very powerful. Anyone looking to build a great gaming rig that also has all of the power features to allow for lower heat dissipation but also a much nicer power bill when doing standard desktop tasks, this would be an excellent choice for you.


Pros:
  • Excellent bios.
  • Great chipset cooling
  • Lots of onboard options
  • Excellent board layout


Cons:
  • Needs 8 expansion slots in case to run Tri SLI
  • occasional strange post cycle on cold boot on a 24/7 stable overclock.
