Official GIGABYTE X38-DQ6/X38T-DQ6 Info/BIOS Thread

[Buggalugs]

Well im back (if u guys remember me) I had a x38 DQ6 that i rma'd with a few minor issues, even though i was happy with the board overall. (6 weeks ago in fact but dont get me started on the lame RMA process)

I got a X38 DQ6 back, put in my new E8400 and 8800GT and wow its so much more stable than the first one with the E6600.


Those 45nm;s CPUs are noticably better than previous models. They stay cooler, overclock easier and dont require much if any extra voltage. I really recommend them to anyone thinking about it.

The X48's were released in Australia today (26th) so they will be coming to a store near you very soon. (my plan of getting my X38 replaced with X48 didnt pan out...o well)

The X38's are obsolete but there are plenty of Ex38's around.


One problem with the E8400's is the temperature reading programs dont seem to be accurate. Reports way higher than in the bios but other than that im a very happy X38 user.

Ok im going back in the bios to crunch some numbers...cya.
