My System Specs

Default Gigabyte G1 series
Hey Everyone,

I've notice the Gigabyte G1 Sniper and Assasin are on sale for quite a bit off right now.

Has anyone used them before, and how did you find them? Is it pretty easy to switch CPU/OC profiles on it?

Or should I just stop looking at blowing my money wastefully ;D

I reviewed Sniper 2 - Gigabyte G1.Sniper 2 Z68 Motherboard Review
MAC reviewed Assassin - GIGABYTE G1.Assassin G1-Killer LGA1366 Motherboard Review

I like them personally, sound is pretty awesome

Thanks Eldonko,

I decided to pull the pin and go for it. Got 24gigs of Corsair Vengeance as well. Hopefully with the prolimatech this thing should OC really well.
