    Day 1 - Alright, first day on the job.


    Parts starting to trickle in, here is what I got so far.

    The Board
    The Board

    I decided to go with Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3P, this board is been around for a little bit and has amazed many of us. I really wanted to get it late last year but had to make a conscious decision and went with the ASUS P5Q-E, which is a pretty good board to. So here it is.

    Inside the box


    Even thou i studied the board quiet well, there were still a few things that i was not aware of. For example: it is clearly stated that this board can do SLI with x16/x8 slot configuration, not a big deal as majority of boards do it the same way, however, the UD3P actually has electrically  only one x16 slot and one x8 slot. they are not interchangeable.

    Two Physical PCI-e x16 slots

    It is obviously stated on the board that this will only do x8
    pci-e x8
    On the second slot, no contacts in the back

    I was a little supprised and a little disappointed by that.
    Moving right along. Some minor accessories arrived as well.



    Day 1 is done.
