That's fucked so for it work worth a **** you have to burn your CPU up, which in turn overheats the board... that's BS
|
naw, It only increased the CPU temp by 3 degrees at max load in Sandra. But still, its iffy enough I wont buy anything with a VIA chipset. My story and many others said far too many bad things. At least its a killer performer now though https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png

The Gigabyte boards (the version I have anyway) came with voltage settings all fucked up. You had to get a certain bios version and then tweak the vcore, ram voltage and AGP voltage just to get the damn thing to run ok. I fought with mine for 2 months before I actually had it running in a usable sense. I am going Soyo or MSI from now on. OH YEAH, Gigabyte's support sucks ass too. I sent them several e-mails and even a threat of a class action lawsuit and they STILL never responded. What a bunch of butt nuggets.

The two things I wish I had done differently in my system would be, getting the Soyo dragon board (forget exact model), and not getting registered DDR. |
32" TV, DVD Player, VCR, TIVO (ALL PHILIPS MAGNAVOX) Philips Maganvox Digital Surround Sound Stereo w/ 12" base, Gamecube, PS2 and X Box
My computer, **** if i know I bought it a while back |
Yeah, the Dragon looks like a kick ass board and the forums do not report to many issues with them. Go to www.amdmb.com and hear all kinds of horror stories about the top boards out there. Wish I had gone there before I got my Gigabytesass.
