GIGABYTE LGA1151 Intel B150 Micro ATX DDR4 Motherboard, GA-B150M-DS3H

Set up was both easy and frustrating.I was going to temporarily use a 42 mm M.2, but the mount must be moved which requires accessing the bottom of the mobo. I will simply leave this slot empty until I get my real M.2 drive.This was incredibly easy to set up and works great! I did a tiny upgrade to my system, and have noted a huge performance increase. The cost is very low, and the extra Dimm slots will let me RAMdrive my compilers. This should help speed things up a lot.Setting it up was much more simple than I expected with one huge exception: I have never seen a need for TWO mobo power inputs. This lead to a short period of frustration and trouble shooting. Once I found the problem, identifying what connector to put where was a small task. Once this was done, it ran like a dream.The software included is very nice. It gives Win8 a much more familiar and easy to use feel. The USB 3 and SATA III is a major step up from the replaced board, and my boot times are roughly half (I had two USB 3 and only SATA II).Others mentioned an issue with the PCIE Wifi not recognizing the card. I have a similar observation. It will see my WiFi on the card, but will not see the Bluetooth. I am currently using an external dongle for this.For new builders: When you test it, look for the MoBo to light up when powered on. If the path does not illuminate, you have not put power in the eight-slot that is nearest the CPU. You NEED this.Runs great, fits well, great features, excellent price. I would recommend this product.

Is one of the best motherboard cost / quality has everything you need for new technologies of processors, I have with i5 6500 and works great.

While this motherboard is priced competitively, you may want to think twice if you're looking for a full featured and high quality board. Gigabyte's website claims this motherboard supports overclocking with their Easy Tune software, but this is not true at all. I have an Intel 6700k and I have tried the Easy Tune software and it only allows under clocking in an "Eco" mode. Additionally, I searched for a while in the BIOS to find an option for overclocking and found nothing. I consulted with a friend of mine who is familiar with overclocking and he confirmed that this chipset does not support overclocking.Another issue is with the networking. Due to the fact that this board doesn't have integrated wifi, I bought a Gigabyte WiFi/Bluetooth PCI adapter. Gigabyte GC-WB867D-I Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Combo PCI Adapter for Desktop Computer - 802.11ac - Bluetooth 4.0 It seemed to work fine until I began noticing that my ping would spike up to ~200ms up from ~50ms, every several minutes. This was frustrating for me as it seemed to happen right in the middle of a encounter in various FPS games. Eventually I was annoyed enough that I plugged in an old Hawking USB WiFi dongle and noticed it had the same issue, except to an even greater degree. My previous desktop had no issues whatsoever with WiFi so I am pretty disappointed here. Even with updating the drivers for the motherboard and PCI adapter I have had no luck.The reason I wrote this is because I want to make any future buyers aware of this board. You may have a better experience with it, but the reason I purchased this one over some of the "higher tier" boards is because the reviews seemed mostly positive. If I would have known about these problems I would have certainly paid more because now I am having to change the motherboard I am using. Personally, I have ordered a Gigabyte Z170 board Gigabyte LGA1151 Intel Z170 Micro ATX DDR4 Motherboards GA-Z170MX-Gaming 5 in the hopes that it will be better

One thing I didn't expect was it only had 2 fan headers. One for the processor, and one for your case fan. I had to buy a separate fan controller.

Purchased for my teenage son that assembled his first gaming computer. He chose this motherboard based on recommendations online. Item was received on time and as advertised. Would highly recommend this product and seller.

At this point, I think it is safe to say that this board came from a junk bin. I run a computer repair shop and sometimes need particular items, like specific motherboards. I specifically needed this one for the back I/O Shield. I was going to use the board as a test bench board afterwards. Well, it didn't work out that way. The package came with no box. There was a slightly bent CPU socket pin. There was also a screw and stand-off laying loosely on the board within the anti-static bag they wrapped it in. You can tell that the board came out of a bin, full of parts. Even the anti-static, plastic bag this came in was pitted from being under the weight of misc. parts. If anyone knows anything about motherboards, the hard edges and corners of parts and motherboards mixed in a bin, will result in resistors, capacitors being sheered off, and CPU pins bent. They did not test these before shipping. This board will not display onto a monitor via HDMI, VGA nor DVI connectors. I pretty much bought a piece of junk from being recycled or trash for $70. I've posted pictures of this product for evidence. Don't buy from Warehouse Deals Inc!

Good mother board easy to install great price and has a nice bios

There was no manual with this which made it tough on my kid to build

La única queja que tengo de este producto es que no viene listo para trabajar con Kaby Lake por lo que tuve que conseguir un procesador Skylake hacer un update del BIOS y ahora si poder usar el procesador Kaby Lake de otra forma la PC solo prende sin hacer ningún tipo de señal, ni dar vídeo ni apagarse.Después de solventar ese problema la MOBO funciona de maravilla.

Es barato y muy buena tajeta madre, llego muy bien, excepto que tenia una pequeña abolladura en la caja, no se si fue problema de la paqueteria.

Una tarjeta bastante buena para el costo, lo unico que no me gusto es que solo tiene un lugar para conectar abanico, fuera de eso esta bien
