$290.00
Released January, 2008
The Pros:Layout makes running cables fairly easy, well thought out. SATA connectors are easy to work with, secure but not too stiff. Draws very little power by itself, good energy efficiency.
The Cons:Supports CPUs that are a bit older, falling a bit out of date now. Getting support from Gigabyte is difficult, phone support unavailable.
