Gigabyte P35 motherboards

SAFETY · 3rd Dec 2007, 06:19 PM

DD3's take over is gonna happen, hopefully not to soon, so I was looking at the new P35 motherboards, mainly gigabytes. only one board is a hybrid board though, and it doesnt support crossfire yet all the rest do.
Surely they would make the most money selling boards with hybrid memory support and next-gen GFX support. right?

oh another question, does the 680i chipset support 45nm cpus?

DDR3 is a 2009 product.

get the blitz and forget about the rest.

Thread title caught my eye and not interested in DDR3 ATM either with DDR2 being so cheap.

Was thinking of this one I will be using crossfire ...

Yeah, DDR2 is crazy cheap. I will wait a year for DDR3.

Me too. I wouldn't really bother with DDR3... not until 2009.

DDR2 is extremely cheap. if you want 4gb, now is the time.

on saturday, 2gb sodimm was going for 79SGD. it dropped to 72 on Sunday. you will be paying like what..150 for 4gb. madness

And not for cheap junk RAM either ZuePhok thats why I am thinking of buying what I can for an upgrade right now. This is not econo RAM.

Canada Computers - Memory > Desktop Memory > DDR2 800 PC2-6400+ : OCZ (OCZ2VU8004GK) DDR2 PC2-6400 800MHz Vista Upgrade Edition 4GB (2x2048MB) Dual Channel Kit.

Still deciding exactly what RAM and I will hold off on the Quad for now but that board will run 45nm CPU's when the time comes.

These have dropped right down in price and really O/C well with extremely low power consumption ... around 50W at idle ... so thats under 500 bucks for me to upgrade for now.
