GigaByte GA-8PE800 Pro-R

[Carl Uman]

Well since no one else had posted anything on this board I will. As stated in the title I have the Pro-R version (R for raid). I'm still in the process of setting up WinXP but so far I'm impressed. I comes with enough brackets to fill up 4 slots for sound, usb (2), and IEEE. I'm doing a RAID setup and so far has been a snap. For only $129 at NewEgg this board seems well worth it.

I'll update here as I get more info.

Why are more people not using the GA-8PE800 series?

So far it all seems good... haven't tried overclocking yet.

The only problem I'm having is with the utilities that came with the board. It has EasyTune 4 which crashes with driver error. Also has problem with the other utils from GigaByte but don't care about those so much. I looked around and don't see any answers. Anyone have an idea?
