Card arrived in pristine shape, not a speck of dust!
Came with a giant poster too!!
Sorry about the camera.. seems I need a better fix than some tape to keep the dust out of the lens
Caddi, Subpar, seems you have some catching up to do now

Haha no
I bought it recently, it's the Les Stroud Desert knife from Camillus.
It's very comfy to hold and use, plus the built in firestriker is a bonus

I don't do a ton of product shots any more and thought I'd share what I got in this thread too.

I love Gigabyte boards
I've found that the revision 1.0/1.1 boards are the best. My last few giga's were rev 1.0.

well, i already have a nearly identical board, just one that uses ddr2, not ddr3, and it ran my e8400 @ 4.5ghz 24/7 for a good couple of years.
figured that this one should hopefully be able to do as well, and will no longer be limited by my ram speeds for overclocking!
and since i won't be going for 24/7 stability when im benching it, i seem to recall being able to get about 15-25 mins of prime stable @ 5.0ghz, so with some luck, a cold winter, and a radiator in the window, im hoping i can get some really good speeds with it this winter.

Cool. A socket 775 motherboard with USB 3.0.
(Gigabyte was going with the times!)
(Most are stuck in the socket 478 era, when it comes to USB!)
(USB 2.0 is from the socket 478 era!)
(Of course, I can also say that USB 2.0 was from the Internet Explorer 6 era!)
(That was back in the times when Internet Explorer 6 was the latest Microsoft browser and Microsoft showed no signs of releasing another major version.)
Now, it makes me want to get one!
(Of course, not just the USB 3.0!)
I have a Q6600 G0 in my Asus Maximus II Gene
and I have 2 Wolfdales! ( a 2008 E8400 C0 and a 2009 E8600 E0.)

i have an e8400, that if memory serves correct is an E0, ran it at 4.5ghz 24/7 for a few years.
and not only does this board has USB3.0, it also uses DDR3 memory, rated for speeds of up to 2200+!!

The Asus Maximus II Gene is one of, if not the last motherboard using DDR 2.
But, I have an abundance of DDR 2.
