I was seriously thinking about this board as a possible upgrade but, I don't want to move up on processors until the 8 cores hit the market.

 

[OriginalJoeCool]

You really need 8 cores?

I'm really late getting in on this but it's about damn time that GIGABYTE put out a proper EFI. None of this hybrid crap. Didn't the company say at one point they didn't want to rush an interface built overtop of a cooker cutter EFI from another company so they launched their own EFI development department?

Who works there? A donkey sitting under a tree swatting flies with its tail?

I'll kick the bee's nest - have you used one of GIGABYTE's X79 boards yet?
