Gigabyte GA-EP45T-EXTREME Motherboard Review


Thu 2008-08-21 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan
Hardware Canucks have posted a review of the Gigabyte GA-EP45T-EXTREME, a DDR3 motherboard based on the Intel P45 Express chipset.

Here’s what they had to say:

“As you can see we didn't hate everything about this motherboard but there did seem to be a lot of drawbacks to a number of the positives. Of course, every user is going to have a vastly different needs list so it will be up to you to decide whether the faults we found will hinder you as much as they did us. If not, then the GA-EP45T-Extreme is a great looking board with plenty to offer. If you found yourself agreeing with all the things we didn't like about the board, then perhaps there is a better option out there for you. At this price range there are other options and X38/X48 motherboards aren't a whole lot more expensive to jump up to.

All in all, this is a very good board with a bevy of amazing features which unfortunately can't quite live up to the Extreme moniker Gigabyte's marketing department has saddled it with.”


A tough but fair review, and a definite must-read if you are considering buying this particular model.
