About this product

Product Information

Those seeking a high-performing motherboard for powerful computer systems can look to the Gigabyte Technology GA-X58A-UD3R (REV.20). The board is a solid platform for the installation of advanced equipment in a gaming rig or professional computer. It provides a plethora of expansion slots and beneficial technologies for hardware that's designed to run complex software. It’s also equipped with a BIOS that supports easy overclocking of a CPU. Furthermore, the board supports Windows 7 and other Windows operating systems. This Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R (REV. 2.0) Intel Motherboard is a good starting point for the assembly of an exceptional computer.The Gigabyte GA-X58A-UD3R features an LGA1366 socket. It’s compatible with many professional-grade processors from the Intel Core i7 and Xeon CPU lines. Gigabyte’s Smart QuickBoost allows for quick and effortless customization of CPU clock speeds in the BIOS. With proper cooling methods, users can overclock processors to reach blazing levels of GHz. With the DualBIOS system, settings and security are reinforced by a backup chip, which protects against damaging system failures. With an Intel X58 Express chipset, transmission protocols are enhanced by Quick-Path Interconnect (QPI). This point-to-point protocol developed by Intel works in tandem with the integrated memory controller to substantially improve transmission rates. Rapid communication is facilitated between motherboard components and the CPU via a front-side bus (FSB) speed of 6.4 GT/s. Equipped with six 240-pin memory slots, the board supports 24GB of triple channel DDR3 2200/1333/1066/800 RAM. This is optimal for users running programs that require a lot of memory, such as industry-standard editing applications.Built with an ATX type of form factor, the expansive board has plenty of room for multiple storage drives. Users can install hard-disk drives (HDD) or solid-state drives (SSD) via eight SATA 3Gb/s or SATA 6Gb/s interfaces. An ATA-133 slot is included for the connection of a legacy hard drive. The GA-X58A-UD3R supports the Redundant Array of Independent Disk (RAID) technology as well. RAID can be utilized to secure data through layering storage while increasing read-and-write performance. Such technology results in substantially reduced latency times when retrieving information and running programs. Furthermore, the board is equipped with four PCI Express x16 slots for graphics cards. As the board supports NVIDIA Scalable Link Interface (SLI) and AMD CrossfireX technologies, multiple video cards can be installed. Users can take advantage of parallel processing and revel in the increased frame rates and flawless high-resolution display capabilities.These X58 motherboards also come with Realtek ALC889 audio chipsets. This 8-channel chipset is coupled with six audio ports to provide users with high-quality sound capabilities. A Realtek 8111E LAN component accompanies it, allowing the board to generate 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds. In addition, numerous slots are available for varying types of connections. Two USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0 slots allow for the connection and charging of a multitude of peripheral devices. Apple technology is also supported, with two IEEE 1394a (Firewire) ports present on the board. Throughout operations, the X58A-UD3R is designed to counter overheating by intelligently allocating power. Services like Ultra Durable 3 Technology can guide heat efficiently and prevent hardware slowdowns from excessive temperatures.

    X58 motherboard with 2xSATA3.0 and 2xback IO USB3.0

    Great value and price like the tittle says it has sata3.0 and 2xusb3.0. the vrms are great for overclocking. Ive got a Xeon X5675 oced to 4.5 at 1.38v no problem. the only thing to be aware is the back usb3.0 does not play well with usb2.0 stuff and i could not boot with some stuff connected to it. but with 3.0 stuff connected its all good. Also the IO shield is a bit crappy (machine cut to fit the board....not original) But hei compared to the Gigabyte UD7 or UD9 with the same features the price performance is unbeatable. Im very happy with it =)

    Not factory reconditioned as stated

    After installing the mother board the HDD indicator light did not work and the eithernet connection did not work. I can deal with the HDD indicator light not working and worked around the eithernet connection problem by installing an eithernet card. I called Gygabyte USA to see about getting my original mother board repaired as a back up and told them I purchased a factory reconditioned mother board from Hong Kong. I was told by the RMA department that Gygabyte factory does not recondition mother boards. All repairs, etc are done here at the RMA center. They told me not to waste my money sending in my original mother board as repair parts such as chip sets if they are bad have not been available for several years. I chose not to send the mother board back since for the most part it is working. Will up grade to a newer mother board when this one fails.
