    Where Are The Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 Motherboards?

    I'M having a wierd network problem with my board for some reason. I used it for about 3 days without a hitch and installed vista ultimate 32bit with SP1. Just came back from a trip which I haven't used the computer for about 1 week. Now the lan connection does not recognizes anything (get error...

    Great! I still haven't fired up my x48 mb yet. I just bought an asus P5E-VM HDMI mATX for a HTPC so my cpu's cooking in there instead. I'll probably test the x48 when I bring out the matx to install the i/o plate. Thanks for the heads up and hopefully the Q9450 will come down in price a little...

    Where Are The Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 Motherboards?

    Just received the motherbpard today. I was looking at it and kinda got a bit alarmed that the board has a small sticker over the area where the board is identified as a GA- ( ) board. The sticker says X48-DQ6... i didn't take off the sticker but just kinda alarmed if the board is really a x48...

    When Is Anandtech Going To Expose Gigabyte's Failure To Support Its Products?

    Yes mistakes were made and yes we yelled and screamed about it and finally somethings done. But to put the lawyers/sharks in here is just gonna make things a lot uglier. GB will continue to feel the effects of this for a while with the loss of trust and it will take them some time to gain it...

    For those that wants to continue the nVidia SLI route, good luck to u. (and Gigabyte make sure u back ur motherboard this time with whatever u advertise.) I am glad I'm going back to Intel chipset so I can avoid nVidia's issue. I'll just upgrade to a new GPU instead of taking the dual/triple SLI...

    I just called leo today and got a response from costumer services about emailing them the receipt and sn number and stuff. (I emailed them April 8th too) They will be sending me an RMA soon they say. They are willing to trade the board for the x48-dq6 which is nice of them. I hope taking off the...

    Wow I thought we were doomed to accept the poor treatment we're getting from Gigabyte. Kinda given up already but Beagle and gary are the greatest! Talk about bringing attention and making the issue known to everyone. Thanks for your support and efforts!!!

    well with penryn support at least that's some good news. Eventually plan to move on to a 45nm chip and move my E6600 for a HTPC.

    Where Are The Gigabyte GA-N680SLI-DQ6 Motherboards?

    yeah we spend like uber amount of money on the board >300 and to have them stop supporting the board is so unfair. I'm definately going to be waiting on gigabyte products in the future. Maybe give them some time before I'm gonna trust gigabyte again.

    Is there a way to install the raid driver without having a floppy drive for window xp? I'm having so much trouble since I don't have a working one right now and I just bought 2 Samsung HD501LJ. I don't want to pay the 7 bucks to buy a floppy drive I don't need.
