Gigabyte EP45-EXTREME

[Rob Williams]

Intel's P45 chipset proves to be one of the best mainstream offerings ever created, and Gigabyte put it to good use on their EP45-EXTREME. The board offers sweet cooling ability (which the help of a lot of copper), amazing overclocking potential (500MHz stable with a Quad!) and fantastic power efficiency - all at a good price.

Read the review, then discuss!

Great FSB

And the color scheme is still the same ( rainbow )

I thought I did, but I couldn't find it in the pile of photos I had for the review. The board is all uninstalled now, sadly.

Woops, fixed! Thanks for pointing that out.
