I've been a gigabyte for a long time. I am not exclusive to them, but I've used them probably more than any manufacturer. In fact I think one of my first boards back on socket 7 with a k62 CPU was them, and plenty of socket a builds were done with them. I've actually had more trouble with...

Very true my bad for missing the +. I just ordered components for my first mini itx build ever with a FM2 gigabyte board. I'm looking forward to building something so small. I am a little disappointed in not finding any that fit the thin standard for ultra compacts, but still this system...

Newegg has a couple now. This gigabyte one looks nice. The built in wifi is nice IMO too. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128628 Jason

Woohoo this was fixed! For some reason an old SATA hard drive plugged into the board was causing all of the problems sine receiving the RMA'ed motherboard. Now with that old hard drive unplugged, it is running like a champ. Jason

I had some similar experiences. I didn't mind using Windows 8 but I had two main problems. The first was hibernate didn't work for me. The second was gaming performance. I even upgraded to a new video card thinking that my old 4850 just couldn't drive the new 1080P monitor that I had picked...

Steam name jcook64 here (under account [email protected]) if you are still looking for players. Jason

I'm still using this CPU in my gaming PC and it has been a champ for me for years. And yea it should work nicely with that board.

Yea I would bet that it would work just fine. And wow that is a tiny AMD board. It isn't too common to see Mini ITX AMD boards. Good luck with your build! Jason

I actually have the old original PC version of FF VII (and VIII) I think for Windows 95 or 98. Too bad I can't just activate that on steam and get the steam version compatible with 7. Jason

I really like my Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H motherboard. I use it for a different application though. I know that it has core unlocker support (not sure if your CPU is a candidate for that) and plenty of overclocking capabilities, but due to my CPU not having an unlocked multiplier I haven't...

Alright guys I am at my wits end and am looking for troubleshooting recommendations for a build I'm working on. Here are the components: AMD A8 5600K MSI FM2-A75MA-E35 8GB DDR3 No matter what I've done I'm receiving memory errors in memtest86+. I have three different brands and speeds...

Lots of good information. I read an article lately (I think over at www.anandtech.com) that talks about gaming with older CPUs to see where the limiting factor would be. I cannot remember if there were any Phenom II's on the list, but it seemed back then that it was better to spend the $ on...

I am in a similar boat. I have a Phenom II X6 that has been running pretty nice for some time. I haven't been able to get myself to part with it yet. Its been a curiosity of mine though, but I think it is still good enough lately. Jason

I have one of these boards with bad caps. I might have the I/O panel for it too. Let me know if interested still. I'm not on here much often anymore but I just noticed this and thought that I'd pass the information. Jason

It more than likely wouldn't make much of a difference unless you are planning on doing any DX10 gaming in my opinion. I currently run XP64 and I am going to move to Vista x64 soon, mainly because of stupid Photoshop CS4. It will use GPU rendering on Vista x64 but not XP64. Before that I had...

If it was available for WM, I'd be all over it...

I was going to ask the same thing about the Phenom...

I really like my GB board, however the DFI board wasn't available to me back when I was building. I probably would have gone with it though. Crossfire is an interest as a possible upgrade, but otherwise the SB750 enhanced OC'ing abilities make me like it more too. Really the only negative...

bump for viewing and am interested for a new build. How much is shipping to 44720? Hopefully not much, was hoping to spend around $35 or so Thanks, Jason

Do you think the power supply could handle a Phenom & an ATI 3850? Jason

PM sent for Phenom.

PM Sent.

This is like a story that I've heard about at a gas station, instead of putting in 3.79 the operator accidentally typed in .37. People came from all over for it. I'd sure as hell try to capitalize on that deal; I'm tired of $100 fill ups. I didn't get in on this, but I thought about it and if...

<3 my tilt with a custom WM 6.1 OS on it. Very fast and the battery life isn't bad. The HTC Touch Pro is very tempting and should be coming to AT&T soon :) And for one I am actually pretty satisfied with AT&T. Tons of people don't like 'em, and I will admit I liked them more before Cingular...

Its dead now :-/ and today was going to be the day to order it. Jason

Slightly interested in the HDDs and/or power supply. Did you register the power supply with Ultra for the lifetime warranty (they have it on most of their stuff)? Is it transferable if you did? Jason

According to Giga-byte's website, my 780G board supports 140W! I might be all over this here real soon! Jason

I'm all for registering for a long warranty, but I do believe that it should be transferable. And cheaper instant rebates > larger MIRs by far (and this is someone who religiously sends in MIRs) I've been burned a couple of times. Sometimes it just takes so long I forget about it and...

I have one. I was looking to get a cheap used Mobo for it to use it as a server, but I haven't found anything yet. I can't check to see if the CPU is good or not (due to the lack of a Mobo) but I'm pretty sure that it should be. I think it is a 3000+ or something like that. Interested? Jason

We don't have a Syba one but we might have another one. Also the Egg has a Dual Layer Lightscribe SATA black burner for $23 right now free shipping. Jason

Count me in! Jason

I can get you an ATT Tilt for $300. It is a close friend of mine who is selling it; I can see if he'd take trades. Jason

There is a 790GX Biostar Mobo on the Egg for only $99 btw guys. Jason

I don't have one that you are interested but I thought that I'd say hi as you are not too far away. 44703 here (Canton). Jason

I was referring to the Phenom and the Sonata. The case + shipping might be a little out of my budget but I might be in for the Phenom if it doesn't go soon. Jason

I bought both a long time ago. The XT had a real nice surface, however the rubber feet on the bottom started slipping all over the place. Then the GS that I ordered has a surface that has started wearing down. I'm still happy with it and I am pretty happy with ratpadz game pads overall, and I...

Have any pics of that Case (doesn't have to be the actual one, one from a store is fine). Any clue on shipping costs to zip 44720? Thanks, I'm interested in the case and CPU. Jason

The memory was just ordered :) Hopefully I can sweet talk it into running at 1066. No Rebate = FTW either way. Jason

There is a 3870 on sale for $109 shipped on newegg, then there is a $30 MIR on that. I think that the 3870 is faster than that card too. $120 still sounds reasonable, but I do agree that your initial offer was way to high. Jason
