That puke colour on the heatsinks really throws me off enjoying the look of the board.

[Behemoth-]

We all love PCI !. Not a fan of the colour too... But I love Gigabyte board as well as their support. I'll probably stick with them for my next builds, but I prefer the "Gigabyte" colour scheme..

^^ the one question that keeps popping up is, how many sales do they gain by including legacy connections? they probably figure a good nuymber of people are still upgrading their 3-5 year old system and want to keep the dvd and hard drives, but still.

also,i find the usual blue pcb better looking, but thats just a personal thingie :p

I don't like the looks of the expansion slot layout...
For one, the x1 at the top will be blocked by the heat sink (unlike my lower-end 770 Giga which has half the heat sink cut out to prevent this).
From the looks of the shot at 6:43, two of the four physically x16 PCI-E slots are electrically x8; the first and third down from the "NB" heat sink are full x16, which may mean a video card starved for air if you run dual cards with the x16 electrical slots.

Did I miss something or is there no IDE connector to speak of? I may have to replace my IDE DVD-RAM drive

I rarely ever have to reset CMOS on any gigabyte board. Their overclocking recovery thing is a lot better than most other manufacturers.

There are some BIG issues if you have to clear the CMOS every 5min

[Shozzking]

is it just me or is gigabyte the last manufacturer to realize that people who pay $300+ for a board dont want anything related to blue?

I think the UD5 (from pictures) looks better.
