OCC has published a new review on the Gigabyte EX58-UD4P



Overall, it was a joy working with the EX58-UD4P. Overclocking was simple, but it also has the capacity to get complex for hardcore users. This board is third behind the top of the line EX8-EXTREME, which is aimed for the top of the line market, but this board still puts up great numbers. The only real con is that it only has one LAN port, but the next two models do have dual LAN, so I won't grudge this board. Otherwise the two orange ports are kind of funny, but it is not hard to move on past that. The screw mounted Northbridge and Southbridge show great attention to thermal and overclocking qualities, as do the back plates. The PCI Express slots are configured in a more efficient way in which users of triple-card setups will appreciate that the lanes are split x16 x8 x8, allowing cards to run closer to their full potential rather than being starved of bandwidth.
