Gigabyte's GA-7DPXDW
Posted by: Hooz on: 01/30/2002 10:53 PM [ Print | 14 comment(s) ]
It appears that Gigabyte is ready to step into the dual AMD ring. They have posted the specifications and a nice picture of their new GA-7DPXDW motherboard.
If nothing else, it sure is neat looking!

![]() I got in no problem, did anyone else notice the FOUR ide connections? can we say ide raid (even though softraid MAY be faster) :eek: it also has several dipswitches meaning a good possibility that overclockers will get something to play with it also has onboard usb (in an odd place) and an onboard nic thus leaving 3 free 32/33 pci slots if anybody has experience w/ gigabyte motherboards plz post since i have never ran one, i would like to know how stable they are.

![]() DracoDan,I'm using a dual PIII Gigabyte motherboard(dual 1 gig processors) and haven't had no issues with it although I don't think this board is overclockable at all(wish it was) mine is a GA-6VXDC7. Been running it 24/7 for months with no problems. Now I hope that the dual AMD motherboard is stable, I wouldn't mind putting it in my AMD box that has a MSI-6167 motherboard(900mhz thunderbird) if it would fit,having a dual AMD/intel systems is w00t for me. Notice I don't have any boards that is overclockable? LOL I'm a sad one indeed LOL rig 1:Athlon 900 thunderbird rig 2:dual PIII 1 gig rig 3: dual freebsd PIII 667 mhz rig 4: would like a rackmount system :P |

![]() It looks like it should be a pretty good board. I'm still waiting for a features comparison between all the new mpx boards out there from somebody. BTW: Hooz - Cowboy Bebop is the greatest anime ever. I love the icon. -stevil |

Only MPX boards shipping right now are Tyan and Asus. Got within about 0.5cm of the MSI last night, but that was a plexiglass display case - no shipping data on the sucker yet. Walking the streets of Tokyo (Akihabara), the Asus MPX is available, Tiger MP in several places, but no Tyan MPX, nor any other MPX - also no dates available either. I got bored and just on-line ordered the 2466N from the US - who cares about shipping charges!:rolleyes: Lian-Li PC-76|Tyan S2466N|2xXP1700|2GB Reg ECC|Enermax651/301 Dual PSU|5x36ES Raid5 ICP Vortex GDT8623RZ|3Ware 7500-8|4xWD1000JB Raid5, 2xMaxtor80GB Raid0|SB Audigy|WinXPSP1|More PCs |

It sounds like they might have just added an on-board usb controller separate from the chipset... so yes, usb should work, but would a usb keyboard get you into your bios? I don't think so... Anyone miss their dual ppro system? ![]() |

![]() I'll never buy MSI again, their stuff is just not stable, 3 of the last 4 boards I've had of their stuff had stability issues. I put the same hardware on Abit and Asus and Gigabyte boards and all was fine. I love Gigabyte stuff. It's my new corp standard I use for low-end servers, since I don't overclock the systems I build for corp use. Used to use SuperMicro and Tyan only, but I've found that Gigabyte's stuff is rock-solid at a comparitive discount. I also have that same dual PIII board and it's stability has blown away the VP6 stability, never a single blue screen or freeze EVER, and it's been running and handling requests for 24/7 for six months with Win2k Pro SP1 running Apache's Jakarta-Tomcat servlet engine. Haven't even had to restart tomcat once! Rhino |

![]() I'm thinking my next duallie may involve that Gigabyte board, as my VP6 is beginning to drive me nuts. Hopefully, the board won't be too expensive though (as in $200 or less).
