Hi to whoever is reading this and thanks for your attention,
Anyways, I just bought this board and after seeing how many DOAs there are on Newegg regarding the board, I'm a bit worried.
I cant RMA it back as easily as some and there are a lack of reviews on this board on the Net (or I didt look hard enough).
Heres the specs on my new system:
GA-EP35C-DS3R
C2Q Q6600 Not OC-ing
2GB 800Mhz DDR2 RAM
320GB WD7200AAKS
XFX 8800GT Zalman-cooled, stock speeds (Will OC to XXX speeds)
Gigabyte Odin Pro (Not GT) 550W
Vista (obviously) and other knick-knacks
Any advice regarding the board and my system is greatly appreciated as this is my first attempt at a DIY build-from-scratch computer.
Oh, advice on installation procedures and what not to do is great too.
Thanks in advance.
