anything in theP45-UD3 series are a good board from what i know, i dunno about the C tho, guess youll find out soon enough , no mines the same, UD3R it was a cracker board too, and modded, for 771, but it died, im thinkin it was the psu i had in that killed about 12 boards now over the last 12 mths

gigabyte page and another thing I found this mobo has PCIE 2.0 slots not 1.1 like the non c UD3R Whattdayamean. All P45 boards from Gigabyte and all other manufactures have PCIe 2.0 Intel block Diagram for P45 below. Also all G80 Nvidea GPUs including 8800GTX only supported PCIe 1.1 G90 series GPUs supported PCIe 2.0

12 boards now over the last 12 mths 12 mobos is 12 mths yea that had to be the PSU that is crazy lol i know ive killed a few by overvolting sure, but no way ive done all the boards by over volting, the psu is as dead as a door nail now too, ill see what enermax says, being the platinum series i may have a bit of a chance for a rma as it was new when i got it

going through it I think you scored big, spec/spec they look identical but the C unit does DDR2 and DDR3 (to 2000mhz+) if you have good DDR3 ram that you can tighten up timings with I'd guess you'll do well with ram intensive benches.

Vin I read X38 has 1 pcie x16 x48 has 2 x16 both 2.0 I cant remember where I seen that shit maybe I was just understanding what I read wrong but I got 2 sets of DDR3 a 1.8v 1333mhz set 2x1gig and 2x4gig DDR3 1866mhz 1.5v so I got 2 sets the 1866mhz is gskill ripjaws X and the other is corsair ballistic the mobo will be here sat and it has a X5450 I am gonna run down which will be fun never done a xeon quad plus I wanna redo my Q8200 and see if I can get better clocks and I got a E8500 that will be here tomorrow so I will get a few CPUs tested with it this weekend still trying to get this lot of 300 if not I am gonna have to go after this lot of 100 its got a Q6600 in it but its also got a lot of 478 cpus in it too so I might have a benchfest of 478 soon the lot of 300 has both 775 and 478 a bunch of them its got some AMDs in it also not sure they arent all listed

Okay P35 supports PCIe 1.1 P45 supports PCIe 2.0 16x single or 8x + 8x Crossfire X38 / X48 both support PCIe 16x + 16x Crossfire
Non of the above support SLI that never came to intel chipsets till X58 after the courtcase between Intel and Nvidea. Intel won the court case and stopped Nvidea from making chipsets for 1366 and also won the right to use SLI on there boards. You could say Nvidea lost bigtime.

You could say Nvidea lost bigtime. ok that is what I read then it was P35 and P45 P45 and X38/x48 sould support SLI anyway since they both run 8x+8x which is the requirements for SLI even to this day crossfire will run 8x 4x and sli still needs at least 8x per channel I guess that is why back in 775 Nvidia had to make their own chipsets for sli lol

SLI will not work on any Intel 775 chipset Nvidea did not licence SLI to Intel the Driver will not show or allow you to enable SLI. Nvidea wouldnt licence SLI to Intel so their chipsets would sell is more like it because other than SLI the Nvidea 775 chipsets are shit. Any Nvidea driver will not show SLI on a 775 chipset. The Intel chipsets are perfectly capable of running SLI. There is a software patch/hack that will trick the driver into thinking its an Nvidea chipset and then SLI will run. That is the only way. Anyway really who wants to run SLI on 775 anyway it would only be for an Old School comp

Anyway really who wants to run SLI on 775 anyway it would only be for an Old School comp yea no one would run 775 SLI anyway if I ran old GPUs in SLI it would be on my 5820k system to get a better score from the CPU lmao Id never run a SLI setup or even crossfire with older CPUs I would do it all with my i7 no reason to get a shit score lmao even if the GPUs are old as hell the i7 will give it a way better score then any 775 oh and I ran 775 SLI with a gigabyte mobo had 2 XFX 8600 GT 512MB cards when XFX still made nvidia and it ran SLI decent but was a junk mobo that didnt last a year www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=2679#ovthen after the intel SLI mobo I went to a AMD XFX 750a SLI mobo ran the same 2 8600 GT in it til I got a GTX 550ti www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813141010

I've ran SLI on a X38/48, couple 7800 GTs I think been awhile used the hacked driver. Do know I've been unable to run SLI capable WS VGAs on X58 and have only ran them on a SLI chipset board (939). Actually picked up a 775 Nvidia board just to give it go.

Actually picked up a 775 Nvidia board just to give it go. I have had Nvidia 775 and AM2+ mobos the 775 died on me within a year the AM2+ didnt die til the PSU fried it out that is why I dont buy cheap PSU no more think it was a raidmax or some shit never again will I buy a cheap PSU but like I said if I wanna run a SLI/Crossfire gpus I will run them in my X99 system but I did run SLI years ago in my gaming systems sometimes it was a pain sometimes it was smooth sailing . edit I picked up 2 Xeon 5150s and 2 C2D E4500 I was out bid at the last sec for a lot of 10 with 2 Xeons in it but I bought stickers for the 5150s and I got a X5450 coming with the mobo that was already used in the mobo I got a E8500 that will be here today and saturday I will have the mobo and the X5450

HyperSLI. lol I like SLI my 980s run great the only time I had an issue was when I had both installed and took one out and ran the PC on 1 and then put the 2nd card back in it freaked out and wouldnt read the 2nd card for some reason I pulled it out started it back up it read the one card I shut it down added the 2nd card and it read it I dunno but it was bugged up lol works good again when I ran my 8600 GTs those damn things almost every day I would have to turn SLI back on in the nvidia CP cause it would shut it off

HyperSLI is the name of the hack program used on boards that do not support SLI. BTW, if anybody ever needs it, I have it stored here.

That's why those gigabyte's are coveted. It's only a few boards that'll run the entire cpu memory range.
I find it odd as power requirements aren't the same between the old and new cpu's. That why with Asus boards (one example) you use a 965P for 533/800mhz cpu's and 800/1066/1333 cpu's you use P45's (for example).

It says it will run P4 800 and Celeron 533 and they will run in it just fine. But you will not be able to adjust CPU voltage with them so dont be expecting much of a overclock with them. CPU voltage will be set at 1.41v The VRM would be exactly the same as my EP45-UD3P and EP45T-UD3R which cant adjust voltage with them. P4 800 and Cele 533 use VRD 10.1 Core 2 use VRD 11.1 Vin you are right Gigabyte and Asus set up their socket and VRM slightly differently Asus boards will adjust voltage no problems with P4 800 Gigabyte wont. There are other differences in the way each of them set up the 775 socket as well.

I was gonna run the GSkill ripjaws X 1866mhz 8gigs I got I figure if I have higher rated ram it would OC better I also have 2 gigs of corsair 1333mhz DDR3 and 2 gigs DDR2 800 OCZ platinum
