760 Delay=No; 760 Glitch=...
"After discussing the matter with a trusted source, we've discovered that a glitch has indeed been found with the current version of the chip (B2), but a fix has already been implemented by AMD.
According to our source, under certain conditions the 761 Northbridge will generate a clock glitch into the CPU that may cause the system to hang. To resolve this, motherboard manufacturers will have to integrate an external circuit to filter out the glitch.

We're assuming that it is this glitch that the Gigabyte representative is referring to. If this is indeed the case, the representative may not have known that a fix exists for this and in fact has already been corrected on AMD's latest reference design, Corona EVT-8 (Which includes the circuit.) For reference, Corona EVT-8 was made after initial samples of Gigabyte's 7DX were released. : -Thresh's
