| sherilyn70's Full Review: Gigabyte GA-6VX-4X |
This motherboard was fairly easy to install. One of the things that attracted me to it was the fact that it is one of the few motherboards currently on the market that offers a slot 1 processor socket and 4X AGP/UDMA66. This is not a jumperless motherboard and does require you set up the bus speed and clock multiplier but was not difficult to do. The manual was very well documented with clear print and easy to interpret pictures and diagrams. I would recommend this motherboard for a moderately experienced user. I felt the manual was geared towards someone with some experience and not a first time installation. This motherboard uses the VIA Apollo Pro chipset. I am running a diamond v770 ultra (NVIDIA TNT2 Ultra chipset) video card with this chipset and have experienced no problems at all.
I would recommend this product to anyone with a PII or PIII slot 1 processor because it offers the 4XAGP and UDMA66 while most other boards are only 2XAGP and UDMA33.
