When the computer is awake but the monitors are sleeping the right fan makes a grinding noise that I can feel when I touch the card. It happens at about a 1 second interval. Not what I'd expect from a grinding fan?? As soon as I wake...

Pretty Epic! You make it look soo easy just a rotozip here and a little sanding there and BAM perfection. I agree with the comment someone made about the orange lighting washing everything out.

I understand that the PSU may not operate without the fan being directly connected. Haven't people remedied this with a resistor?

This PSU runs quiet because the fan only runs when it thinks it needs it. Problem is the PSU is warm and heating up my case. Any tips on controlling the internal fan myself? Standard 3-4 pin fan connector?

They told me I have to pay for return shipping. I guess it depends on your location.

I researched the other z77 boards. They ALL have issues! it's just that the Gigabyte boards have more discussion on them. I'd like to see some sales figures. I wouldn't be surprised if Gigabyte was just very popular. One good thing...

I've gone through every post in this 267 page thread and I want to say. THANK YOU SIN082!! We all appreciate that you didn't just help for the first 10 pages then get bitter and start calling everyone noobs.

Waking from Sleep is a common issue with A LOT of people on different motherboards. Def not a Gigabyte only occurrence.

Welp, upgraded the bios from f5 to f8 and now X.M.P profiles work. No issues here pretty painless now time to overclock.

Definitely the best motherboard for the enthusiast/geek in my opinion. I was hesitant at first to purchase the motherboard because of the quantity of posts relating to it. But after reading the posts you quickly realize the problems...
