GIGABYTE GA-MA785GM-US2H AM3/AM2+/AM2 AMD 785G HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: This board has been running Win7-64 bit with a Phenom II X4 CPU, 8GB of RAM and a 2GB video board almost 24/7 since March/2009. I've built it's 2013 replacment, but haven't had the heart (or breakdown) necessary to take it offline. The only thing making it obsolete is the DDR2 ram.

Cons: none

Other Thoughts: I'm parting it out soon to make a hand-me-down system for my brother to replace his Windows ME system. He'll think he's died and gone to heaven!

Pros: Worked fine for 3 years 2 months

Cons: Crapped out 2 months out of warranty
(3 years (ITX and Special Promo models may differ) This happened once before to me with a Ford car and I have not bought another one since. CPU fan will not spin up, CPU tested fine.

Other Thoughts: I used Abit many years up to 10 years and thought I would try a Gigabyte. From now on its Asus or ASrock

Pros: Love this board! Been going strong since 2010. Has HDMI out.

Cons: None

Pros: EasyTune, Gigabyte support, Socket compatibility, Small, reliable, energy efficient... good range of slots- SATA. And surprisingly powerful onboard graphics. This board was ahead of the curve when it came out.

This board is like a little tank. It's just well put together. It won't shatter if you get a little rough with it, and the chips

And this board is loaded with features for overclocking, and Black Edition AMD CPUs.

Cons: Micro ATX is a little different in layout than most ATX boards. But it's hardly difficult to figure out. The only downside to all of this is that

Other Thoughts: I have had this board in my rig for 3 years. It is currently underpowered with a 2.4ghz Dual core processor with CPU fan, 4gb of DDR2 800 RAM, 1 DVD-RW combo drive, all with a 450w PSU running 3 case fans. I have Windows 7 x64 ultimate, and this thing will actually run WoW, LoL, and a lot of HD media.

Pros: The bios is very easy to understand for a first time overclocker. I was able to get a nice stable 700Mhz overclock easily.

Cons: Outdated nowadays, but still very applicable for budget builds without high end gaming in mind.

Pros: Great overclocker, I have two o these, one for light gaming/media center. The other is a workstation system that is on 24/7 working as fax server/file server. All that and normal desktop environment for my wife at her job with partner..

Cons: none

Pros: Worked I guess. Smaller board, if you're looking for it. Good i/o shield.

Cons: As others have said on here, this just failed for me out of the blue one day about a week ago. Almost 1 month before the 3 Year Warranty was up.

Not even a beep or anything, just a black screen.

Other Thoughts: Computer just reset out of the blue. Computer would boot fine, but no BIOS or anything. All other components are fine.

Will def not purchase from Gigabyte again

Pros: None at this point as the mobo is not working

Cons: MOBO suddenly stopped working. It does not either post or beep. It is not the power supply's problem as fans/HDD/DVD-RW run fine. And, swapping with another power yields the same result - no post. So, I believe it is the motherboard that has the issue.

Other Thoughts: I have been happy with gigabyte products, but it seems to be the time to reconsider my loyalty.

Pros: Has a DVI output on the motherboard.

Cons: Hard to set up. Worst motherboard I have ever worked with and I've worked with dozens. Took many hours to get running initially. Died in less than a year. Gigabyte did send a replacement under warranty, but when I put the hard drive in, it wouldn't boot. I put the hard drive in an Asus motherboard system and it booted with no setup changes. This Gigabyte MB is a piece of junk.

Pros: Easy to set up, works great. I run Windows 7 64 with no problems. I recently upgraded to a nice video card and it work without a hitch.

Cons: CPU fan went out after around 9 months. Bout a stock replacement 6 months ago and its still keeping it around 30 all the time...its great.

Other Thoughts: I would recommend this one for sure.
