GIGABYTE GA-P67A-UD3-B3 LGA 1155 with Intel P67 Motherboard

[Mystic01]

This seems to be one of the minority in the P67 motherboard available Newegg. Is there any reason for this? I do not need SLI, but would like to play an i5 OC'ing 2500K. Some other suggestion (esp., that don't absorb waiting in favor of months)? I'm looking to upgrade my box and turn my old Q6600 and Abit ip35pro machine down guy who is in desperate need of an update (athlon 2500 w / A7N8X). please help me to solve this confusion. Thank you.

I'm facing similar kind of problem. Presently I contain a Q6600 on top of an IP35 Pro video card w/8800GTS board, and I'm upgrading toward an SB settings to 2500K and P67 motherboard. I am posting here because it really buy from Newegg Gigabyte yesterday (I have it tomorrow), and wanted to see if I could find any reviews on it in case you hit problems with overclocking the board. So far all I can find are the people who had troubles through the B2 version; I have not found whichever information on the B3 version yet.

I'm holding the UD5 - have had good experiences with Gigabyte. In stock is not necessarily a problem. Could it be that a significant number of shares, or its feature set is not the most convenient (for me is the lack of SLI). I was considering the MSI for a second set, but that can blow up the board, and remove the CPU and power supply with it, simply by using energy-saving options in the software, made a no-go. It seems that, those options were unconcerned in an update to its page. Somebody clearly had a brain fart at what time writing this software.

I guess it's just a lack of buying rather than problems. If a lot of people bought it and had problems with it, then I think that negative feedback on Newegg, and discussions on problems in the forums. Since I cannot find reviews anyway so I guess it's just that people have not started buying it yet - probably because everyone is in the same boat as us, where they cannot find any reviews on it. I bet that once you acquire a handful of optimistic reviews on Newegg it will initiate flying off the shelf.

Well, I got my card yesterday and changed my old settings for configuring IP35 Pro/Q6600 for my new P67A-UD3/2500K again and everything went well. The meeting started on the first tries no troubles in any way. And starting very first time I went to the BIOS and up the multiplier up to 42x (4.2Ghz), I set my RAM voltage at a fixed 1.5 V and the speed of the RAM in 1600 with long 8 -8-8-24 (I have 16GB G. Skill Ripjaws Series X, CL8). Saved the settings and restarted and once booted a backup with no problem and Windows loaded up.

If we do a dual configuration of the graphics card and has more than 4 SATA devices, or want to use any port SATA III, then this is not the forum for you. I have 6 units in total (4 HDD and ODD 2), but I'm just thinking about a single card configuration, so it will be fine. And if you need a 1394 or later eSata connection at that moment you will have to use a separate card for that. As far as I am acquainted with, Gigabyte is L-shaped SATA cable just before install the SATA hard disk to make use of two graphics cards.
