Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P Motherboard Review

By Nathan Kirsch (legitreviews.com)

The Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P motherboard features Ultra Durable 3 technology with a 2oz copper PCB for 50°C cooler working temperature when working under extreme loads. With 16 Intel P45 Express motherboards on the market, Gigabyte has a ton of ...

While Core i7 systems offer a performance advantage, it is still hard to pass up the power of a Core system. Also, with the recent price drop of quad core processors, including the great "E0 stepping only" Q9650, it's hard to justify the additional ...

Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P

By Joel Durham Jr. (pcmag.com)

For a $150 (street) motherboard, the Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P packs a lot of value. It has one of the most comprehensive rear-panel I/O risers available, extensive overclocking controls, and extra durability from touches such as a thicker-than-usual ...

Hits the price/performance sweet spot nearly perfectly. Incredibly stability. Tons of external I/O connectors

What cons

If you're not quite ready for DDR3 or Core i7, this is your motherboard. It's simply amazing in every way

GigaByte GA-EP45-UD3P Motherboard

By (pcworld.com)

This bd. doesn't match up to its PR. Gigabyte tech support answers their phone though and you can understand them. Mwave sent a rev. 1.0 but there is a rev 1.1 out there, somewhere that may work better.

Sounds good. Cpu temp was 30 deg. cent. system temp around 34c. It was supposedly designed for overclocking. I was just looking for a well built, stable, quality motherboard

Mwave sent older rev bd.;Won't install Windows XP SP1.;Only ONE ide channel! Length between Floppy slot and Floppy barely reach, tacky. Paid for test, got older bios
