Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 Intel X58 Motherboard Original Box and Accessories LGA1366
Oct 11, 2017
Motherboard POSTS first try!
I really didn’t need another x58 motherboard, but Have never owned a gigabyte, plus this one has a unique color scheme and a really sweet bios. One that rivals the Asus P6X58D Premium board that took a dump on me. It was shipped with the original box which is hands down the nicest MOBO box I have ever seen.
I have an i7 975x cpu, with a h100v2 cooler. 24 GB Corsair Vengeance RAM, PNY 240 GB SSD and a ZOTAC GTX 960 GPU and a 625W Seasonic PSU.
Overall halt with the purchase.
After months of testing and letting it sit only to test again. CPU was never faulty, it was the motherboard I installed it in.
Has been working for about 6 months without issue.
CPU Installed in an EVGA x58 FTW3 Motherboard with Corsair H100i V2 120 mm liquid cooler.
