Living Review

If you rate it please :-


It's not often we see this, but this board is in effect a grandchild, the 3rd board using the DQ6 layout and style.
Grandad - GA-P35T-DQ6
Father GA-X38T-DQ6 (rev. 1.1)
Son GA-X48T-DQ6
Showing that Gigabyte is defiinately into evolution, not revolution.

BTA Bios
F5A & F5D
Note: F5C is flawed changes to FSB aren't saved
