Gigabyte X58 motherboard review

Nice. We have a lot of slots available for all kinds of connectivity. From left to right - 1x PCIe, then x4 PCIe, then 3x PCie 16 and two PCI slots. Okay, so here we have 3x PCIe slots. Fully 3-way SLI compatible. One restriction (sort of) the yellow one is a x8 slot. But it's very doubtful you'll notice anything from it performance wise really.

Okay a couple shots more. The CMOS light once powered up, also lights up. Hey it's simple yet fun to observe you know, and it adds to the 'cool' factor.

And one more photo of the power phase LEDs and extra power/on/off button.

The (Award) BIOS has plenty of overclocking options with wide ranges of multipliers and voltages. Our board however had a beta BIOS and something was not yet 100%, as we could not get the memory clocked stable over 1333 MHz. So we didn't touch it. Details though as this is an early production sample we are testing.
