No not really, I have a gigabyte motherboard, its good, but its an OEM mobo, that means its sold to a companie and they locked the bios so I cant overclock/acces my voltage controls. This is my only expierence with gigabyte, for the rest (if it wasn't a oem board) it's pretty good. You'd wait for the others to reply, I also heard gigabyte is bad for overclocking.
well, as Defuzion said awhile back, Gigabyte boards are crap... ASUS or DFI would be your better choice..
no, because they don't have many capacitors and and tey aren't constructed well for stability when OCing. don't forget Epoxx... they make decent boards too... atleast for k8...
someone told me they overclock with giga motherboards just fine. he asked for a link where it says giga mobos are bad for ocing
ok tell the guy to notch the CPU multi to 4, and the ram divider to 1.3 and tell us how high he cn raise the HTT without the computer being unstable... if it fails below 80 it's not a good board.
Alternatively you could even ask them how many mobo's they have seen melt/burn themselves after overclocking? Gigabyte boards aren't bad for very minor tweaking, aside from that like what was posted earlier due to bad overall layout and build qualities they won't stand up to much of anything more over any significant time period.
