    Nice to see that Gigabyte has started taking after ECS (no) color schemes.

    Hmmm ... entertaining.

    Seems a good and clean board... but I'll never understand why the new AMD's chipset does not support PCI 3.0 ( specially if you use one of these FM Athlon II without GPU embedded ).

    Didnt the Athlon II come out long before the PCI-E 3.0 spec? That could be one reason.
    As to why the new ones dont support it, the processors are meant to be low end and mobile chips, not high performance desktops.


    The board looks pretty decent though.
    Rig 1:
    ASUS P8Z77-V
    Intel i5 3570K @ 4.75GHz
    16GB of Team Xtreme DDR-2666 RAM (11-13-13-35-2T)
    Nvidia GTX 670 4GB SLI

    Rig 2:
    Asus Sabertooth 990FX
    AMD FX-8350 @ 5.6GHz
    16GB of Mushkin DDR-1866 RAM (8-9-8-26-1T)
    AMD 6950 with 6970 bios flash

    Yamakasi Catleap 2B overclocked to 120Hz refresh rate
    Audio-GD FUN DAC unit w/ AD797BRZ opamps
    Sennheiser PC350 headset w/ hero mod

    Most likely because there is no defined need for PCIe Gen3.

    If yah got some, we'd love to see them.
