Haven't fired it up yet.

I just want to say that I bought this mother board about 1 month ago, but haven't fired it up yet. It looks nice, and I've heard good things about Gigabyte boards, so I hope it will perform well. As for lack of PCI express 3.0 slots... NO north bridge chipset, Intel or AMD, supports PCI X 3.0, only the PCI X 2.0; I've done the research; so don't expect much of a gain in graphics performance despite having a graphics card with PCI X 3.0; no big deal there. I'll revise my review when I have the board installed and running.

Great

Purchased 2 of these paired with FX-8350's and they're just kickass each setup has different specs but both rock. Love that the new BIOS is windows 8 compatible, had a previous version of this board.. the newer models seem to be way more responsive.

First Build

Build this with amd fx8350 with 8gb of ran and it runs like a monster. It is really fast and i am glad for purchasing it. The on board sound is not that good and makes some weird noises but not really a problem. if it is a problem for u, u can just get a $20 add in audio card and it will be a perfect mobo.

No Problems on first startup

This was my second complete computer build. I used a FX-8350 CPU along with this motherboard. I was a little disappointed that the PCI-E plug was 2.0 not 3.0 (no AMD Mobo had it), but I found an inexpensive GTX-570 card (2.0)to use as the graphics card. I am glad I did. The entire computer started up without a problem after the build and thoroughly checking out all connections. The frame rate made a dramatic increase over my old computer during gaming. There is software that came with the motherboard to overclock the CPU, but I don't really need to use it. It is fast with all of my games (Battlefield, Planetside2, Warcraft). I think I saved a lot of money going the AMD route.
