The Gigabyte X48T-DQ6 is designed to be a high-end, performance motherboard based on the flagship Intel X48 Express chipset, and thats pretty well what you get. The feature set is excellent, the overall board design is very good and performance is ri...
Gigabyte’s X48T-DQ6 is simply a great motherboard for almost all Intel Core 2 overclockers. Recent BIOS updates have allowed better OCing than the F4 BIOS that likely ships with the board, but follow the instructions exactly for updating. The X48T-D...

Abstract: INTELs X48 chipset is the much anticipated follow up to the X38 chipset....which in turn was the much anticipated follow up to INTELs hugely successful P35 chipset. It doesnt take a rocket scientist or industry insider to know that many in the enthu...
