I have decided on a Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD7, Rev 2. The problem is every online retailer has only the Rev 1 board. The difference I see is that the Rev 1 has water ports on the northbridge. The Rev 2 has no water ports, but does have a quick charge for Apple devices, which is desirable to me. Any...

Hello: I am finishing up buiding a new PC for the roommate(A 8XGNXP 3,2ghz) and I have a question about the USB front panel connectors that come with new cases these days (In my case an Antec Lanboy). The Gigabyte board shipped with a rear header for the USB and 1394 connections already wired and...

The spec page on Gigabyte's site clearly indicates this board supports Pentium D. http://tinyurl.com/3eumgw Yet, the detailed CLU support list has "N/A" by all Pentium Ds, meaning "Not Supported." Which is correct?

The MB is an EP45-UD3R. The subject line says everything else. The manual tells me, "Do not insert the power supply cables into pins under the protective covers when using a power supply providing a 2x2 12V connector." But the board came with no covers on any of the pins.

In another thread, I described the awful problems that we've been having trying to get Windows 2000 Server installed on a 7DPXDW+ motherboard. Tried nearly every single combination but the result is that it fails to install and then we start getting blue screen. Having removed CD-ROM, HDD...

Early in the boot sequence this screen appears: Gigabyte Technology: PCI Express to SATA II HOST Controller ROM V1.07.16C Detecting Drives; Done; No Drives Found The systems works great. I'm running a single SATA II, no RAID. The HDD is connected to one of the SATA II ports. BIOS F2.

I'm thinking about re-building my EP45-UD3L using one of these http://tinyurl.com/4jo3293 or these http://tinyurl.com/4uzxupl puppies as the system drive. Other than the power consumptions, does anybody know what the diff between them is? Does using either one sound reasonable? Caveats?
