Gigabyte GA-EP45T Extreme discussion

If you have this board, please share your settings and experiences.

Ross and I will be doing a bit of work with this board over the coming weeks, it would also be great to see how others get on.

Ram settings and speeds seem to be the main issue with alot of the DDR3 P45 boards, so any input you can add to that would be great.

To kick this thread off, let's look at some pictures







The accessories
Installation Guide, Manual, Software CD, cables, I/O panel



The board itself.



The Hybird SLENT-PIPE

Bios Shots!

So, how the vdroop?

The board has a large drop from the bios, and the vdroop in windows is .032

Best FSB so far is 668

After taking off the stock heat pipes, I found they were not making good contact with the fets.





But thats an easy fix with some after market coolers




All up and running and gave me an easy 700 FSB with out too much work!
