RHKCommander959 Posted March 25, 2010 Posted March 25, 2010 (edited) Looks like the new Marvell chips cant handle RAID well. Didn't have a chance to test the Marvell SATA 3 ports in RAID but when I get a chance to, I'll give it a shot!

cirro Posted April 6, 2010 Posted April 6, 2010 Great review-looks like another great board from Gigabyte. Unfortunately, it's as aesthetically pleasing as a seafood dumpster. I'm tempted to write an open letter to Gigabyte pleaded for better looking boards. You don't like the blue and white? if they darkened the blue a little bit its almost Nautica colors I was amazed at how much was on the back of the box for how simple it seemed to be physically designed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both are good.. 460 is better than the 465 in ways, the 465 can possibly be unlocked to a 470 though the 460 overclocks great... I'd say 460>465>285. I would start a thread in the forums and tell them where you are from to get the best price versus performance since I don't know where you are from and how things cost there. I would aim for the 460 over the 465, the 285 is a solid card too and almost as fast as the 465quite Hope that helped Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
