    One criticism is Gigabyte's use of colors on the motherboard- pink DDR3 sockets? We would have also liked to see better voltage controls on the motherboard through the BIOS which is a little hard to memorize every single step to set on. The X48T-DQ6 motherboard is available now at Golden Systems in Dubai- call them at (+971) 4 359 4344 for price inquiry. Read more

    GIGABYTE’s latest release seems to sport a formidable mix of engineering prowess and raw power. With the Intel X48 chipset under the hood, this board looks to be a champion. While it is still brightly colored, don't think that this motherboard is a clown. Read more

    Let me start off by speaking about the DES system and its implementation. I really like the savings that can be had here and while they may not afford you a new car, they are substantial. If more people were to use the system it could have a huge positive impact on the environment. Any of you who may be concerned that it would affect your gaming performance can also breath a sigh of relief. You need only worry if you game at very low resolutions with no image quality ...

    After we set the BIOS to its default values, we installed a QX9650 quad-core CPU with a GeForce 9800 GTX and fired up Prime95 on all cores and we then loaded the graphics with 3DMark06 looping continually. The Gigabyte survived the full day of stress testing without a hitch – we can't really ask for more than that. Even though MSI's P35 Diamond board is DDR3-based and comes with an additional PCI-Express X-Fi card, it's now down to a very inexpensive £86.86 which wo... Read more

    The Gigabyte GA-X48T-DQ6 is the latest in the company’s line of solid, feature-packed, high-end motherboards. Running the X48 chipset, Intel’s latest and greatest, there is a more than adequate number of I/O connections, and the board sports a number of built-in functions to make BIOS tweaking and overclocking easier.

    The X48T-DQ6 retails for around $330... so is it worth it? Hard to say. At $300, it would be a lot easier to recommend the board, as it supports DDR3 and is really quite feature-packed, on top of having a good overclocking ability. But $330 is a lot to devote to a motherboard, especially with P45 right around the corner. Read more
