Anyone have experience with a Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS4P

Plan on combining a Gigabyte with GA-EP45-DS4P with a Q6600. I like it mainly because of the feature set, the silent pipe cooling, and the support up to 16gb RAM. I want to do 2x4GB Module, if it goes in stock anywhere, to begin and upgrade to 16gb at a later point.

I'll take any experience with the GA-EP45-DS4P too.. .can't seem to find reviews.
 
Hmm Gigabyte lists the ICH10R as the Southbridge Chipset. Raid isn't much of a concern for me. I think I will eventually build a RAID5 array, but when that comes I'm going with a hardware-based RAID card. Though if I do that I may put a RAID 0 array in for "performance". I think by that time we'll be up to 2TB so the RAID 5 could contain backups + Media 🙂

Thank you for the review, going through it now.
 
Well I pulled the trigger on this board.

Haven't OC'd it yet... but I'm glad to report that 8GIGs of RAM, 2x4GB, works just great.

I so lucked out on getting the OCZ 8Gig kit... that thing didn't stay in stock for long on Newegg.

Oh and it definitely comes with ICH10R
