Gigabyte X58-USB3 Intel X58 Motherboard Review

With the release of the Sandy Bridge processors and Intel’s P67 chipset you may think that X58 systems are done with, but they are really not. If you are a hardcore gamer or PC enthusiast who wants to get the most out of their CPU the X58 platform is still your best bet. It is also the only platform to support triple channel memory and Intel’s Core i7 processors. The thing that holds many people back from getting a X58 system is the price of the components. Well Gigabyte knows this and has released the X58-USB3 board that is a lower-priced board that still has all the great features you want with an X58 setup. Let’s take a look... Special thanks to Gigabyte for providing us with the X58-USB3 Intel X58 Motherboard to review. The X58-USB3 comes in Gigabyte’s retail packaging. The retail box has a ton of logos and emblems on it. Some things to note are that this board supports USB 3.0 and is built with Gigabyte’s Ultra Durable 3 technology. On the back of the board many of these features are explained. Opening the box up everything is nicely packed inside. Getting everything out you have the X58-USB3 motherboard, I/O shield, 4 SATA cables, SLI bridge, user’s guide, Smart 6 software guide and a Gigabyte sticker.

Gigabyte GA-X58-USB3 Review

Are you looking to upgrade your current system? Maybe you are moving yourself away from an older socket, or maybe you are not very happy with your current motherboard. Perhaps you just want USB 3.0. Whatever your reasoning is for needing/wanting a new motherboard for your system, Gigabyte has a new motherboard out, the GA-X58-USB3. This motherboard is jam-packed with a bunch of features and hosts a pair of USB 3.0 ports on the rear IO panel. I am very curious to see exactly how well the new board from Gigabyte is going to compare to some of the other ones that we have tested, as well as to see how well it is going to be able to overclock my very stubborn i7 920 C0 processor. The packaging for the Gigabyte GA-X58-USB3 is quite busy as there are a bunch of logos and blurbs on it to give you information about the board and the features that it has to offer. In the top right hand corner of the package, you will find the Gigabyte logo printed, the top left hand corner shows a tag stating "Unlocked Performance". There is a large USB 3.0 Onboard Acceleration blurb in the left hand corner of the package letting you know that with this board you are going to be able to run USB 3.0 accessories.

GIGABYTE GA-X58-USB3

With both LGA1156 and AM3 scheduled for termination sooner rather than later, there’s only one safe harbor that will carry you through this year: LGA1366. Fortunately, it’s no longer a major financial stretch to get into Intel’s enthusiast socket. Yes, you can spend a massive amount of cash on a board that you can boot using the Bluetooth on your phone, but for many DIYers, $200 is the maximum they’ll spend on a mobo. Enter Gigabyte’s GA-X58-USB3. As the name implies, it’s a USB 3.0 board using Intel’s elderly but still quite capable X58 chipset. Think of the GA-X58-USB3 as a way-cheaper version of the GA-X58A-UD7 board that we reviewed in the October 2010 issue. How much cheaper? With a street price of $170, it’s literally half the cost of the UD7 and about $30 less than the Asus Sabertooth X58 board we reviewed in the Holiday 2010 issue. Gigabyte does that by shaving off a lot of the features from the UD7, such as the water blocks and massive heatsinks. The USB3 also steps back from the UD7’s 24-phase power, the onboard power switches, and POST LED. You get the point. However, as with the Asus Sabertooth X58, the GA-X58-USB3 doesn’t feel like a total strippo motherboard.

Gigabyte X58-USB3 review

There has been a battle brewing in the motherboard world, and predictably it's been between the Taiwanese motherboard giants Gigabyte and Asus. And the battle has been fought on the LGA 1366 battlefield.So Gigabyte hits back with the X58-USB3 motherboard, the cheapest full Core i7 board on the market.Performance of the full Nehalem Core i7s has never been an issue, but the cost of the platform as a whole has. With prices of DDR3 remaining high, the fact you needed three sticks of RAM to properly populate the X58's triple channel memory configuration, the price of the frankly awesome LGA 1366 CPUs and all bound with the cost of the motherboards meant that it was incredibly expensive as a platform.While chip prices haven't dropped that much, DDR3 prices have. And with Gigabyte and Asus battling it out for the volume segment of the X58 motherboard market, the price of the base boards has come down, too. This latest X58 from Gigabyte is by far the cheapest, though. In pure performance terms, the cheaper Gigabyte board manages to hold its own against pricier Asus mobos, coming out slightly ahead at the same clockspeeds, in fact.
