Strong overall scoring especially in the Physics test, highlighting the strength of the 3770k when overclocked to 4.7ghz.
great looking board, nice oc too.
I thought you weren’t reviewing MSI or gigbyte, so glad to see one of the two so far 🙂 good price and nice layout of the PCB. I never thought about the power/ reset buttons etc, but it does make sense to move them to the memory slots. not the first time ive seen it, but most of them have those at the bottom next to the USB 3.0 ports.
Havent had a gigabyte board in years, but might be a time to move this year.
