What kind of voltage adjustments are there? Hope it's not .05v increments like the Biostars.

So is the EP45-UD3R almost the same as this but with a PCI slot instead of another PCI-E slot? I would rather have the PCI slot since I don't use Crossfire. The UD3R is also cheaper at NewEgg. Thanks!

Thanks. I'm getting ready to ditch this ncrap board and I'm eyeballing this one. This may be the one. Good clocker and cheap.

Its a tough choice but I would go with this new board for its sheer potential. The tpower on the other hand is proven, you will have lots you can read to help tweak it and Ket is starting to mod its bios.
I am sure you can use the older Gigabyte P45 thread to help tweak this new one though and I am sure somebody will mod the bios of this new board eventually as well.

ok its time for some quad clocking.
stop messing with dual cores, anything can clock a dual corepast 500mhz and now 600mhz, but only a couple of boards can run a quad to 500
lets see what $129 can do to a quad...
