GIGABYTE GA-EP45-DQ6 (rev. 1.0) Pro Reviews

pcstats‘s review Edit

On the overclocking front PCSTATS was able to push the GA-EP45-DQ6 board to speeds of 525MHz FSB with an Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 processor and a trusted pair of Corsair's DOMINATOR Twin2X2048-8888C4DF DDR2 memory. Ultimately, the Gigabyte GA-EP45-DQ6 motherboard is suitable for a Crossfire gaming PC or workstation computer with future PCI Express peripheral expansion on the horizon. For the enthusiast who has a bit of extra cash and wants a motherboard which supports network teaming, that's easy to troubleshoot and overclock while providing essential Crossfire support, the Gigabyte EP45-DQ6 is well worth considering.

As for Gigabyte GA-EP45-DQ6, it will remain a worthy part of our collection. Not as a useless decorative overclocking toy, but as a highly efficient solution for achieving maximum performance.

HardwareZone‘s review Edit

The DQ6 class of motherboards have a way of creating their own headlines as each revision comes into existence and GA-EP45-DQ6 has several landmark features to make the DQ6 family proud of this newcomer. On board, you'll find four PCIe based Realtek 8111C Gigabit LAN controllers and this is readily seen by the rear-I/O panel's impressive quad Gigabit LAN ports. Before your jaw drops to the floor, we'll jog your memory that this isn't the world's first consumer board with quad LAN ports - that honor while still belonging to Gigabyte, was first introduced in their nForce 680i implementation in the GA-N680SLI-DQ6 motherboard.

GIGABYTE produced a motherboard that fits both mainstream and enthusiast level users, that are seeking a motherboard solution based on the Intel P45 chipset.

HotHardware‘s review Edit

Somewhat disappointing was the EP45-DQ6, Gigabyte’s rather expensive DDR2 platform. While the board is certainly an impressive release from a technical perspective, just cramming on the maximum amount of onboard components does not make for an excellent motherboard.

The sheer number of goodies this board packs makes it the most future-proof of the bunch.
