[Infa]

Ok, now I can't get EasyTune 6 to work here, Vista x32, been google it and looking here for some help, but the "little" i got doesnt help, dont get it? why make a program that dont work, tried F4 and currently F5 Final bios.. just crashing with GUI error.
Would really appreciate some help this tool is reeeal handy if it works, ofc i can use SETfsb, but no voltage control there

Cheerio!

I 2nd what Infa said - ggbt has made a good pair of x58 boards in these.
I have the extreme but the UD5 is just as good for less $.
If I had it to do all over - I would get the UD5 not the extreme - save the $.

Since the release of the i7 late last year because of work I've have had access to the P6T deluxe, Rampage II and the evga x58. Working with and OC'ing systems with those boards in it, I had little things I didn't like about each one so I decided I was def. gonna go with something else.

Ended up with a gigabyte x58 and I've been very happy with it. P6T is a good board but I recommend ud4 or higher board over it easy. From minor things like pci-e slot placement, floppy etc imo gigabyte did it all better.

be glad you didn't have to work with the Foxconn Renaissance...omfg piece of crap.

Gigabyte did well with the X58's, never had a doubt since the day I got mine way back around launch. Still getting allot of fun out of it, these i7 920 can take a serious beating

F6A is also on the gigabyte website

1. Beta BIOS
2. Fix abnormal messages from EasyTune 6 and DES in Vista

Every F6x has worked for me with Vista, like GAR's announcement said.
