Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6: Early Preview of Intel X38

AnandTech published today an early performance preview of the Gigabyte GA-X38-DQ6 Intel X38 based motherboard.
Our testing today is centered on a select group of synthetic and application benchmarks that will provide a general indication of how the X38 currently performs with beta hardware. We will follow up shortly with results from a retail board/BIOS combination that will focus on CrossFire (sorry, as of now there's no official SLI support), overclocking, power consumption, and additional application benchmarks.

well that was a fairly boring preview...
though mainly because they didn't want to do too much since it was just an ES but still...

Gigabyte needs to step it up and give Asus some competition.

When you look at the gaming results it's clear that upgrading (at this time) is more of a hobby then an actually need.

I like the options in the Gigabyte Bios better than the ones at ASUS.

Finally a MB with enough USB conections, so that I don't need to have headers and expansion cards :slap:
