Gigabyte GA-8TX - Too Many Jumpers

Previous Next
12:05 PM - 03/21/2001 by Frank Völkel

The 13 jumpers scattered over Gigabyte make it stand out particularly. Some of the adjustment features they hide, like "USB Wake-Up" or "Keyboard Power on," are entirely useless and could be adjusted more easily and conveniently in BIOS. Another feature that makes it stand out is the blue-painted board, whereas the other boards in the test are painted green or yellow.

The dual BIOS function for beta testing BIOS versions looks interesting. The multiplier is adjustable in a range from 8.0 to 23.0, while the majority of Pentium 4 processors are locked. One plus that must be mentioned is the USB port with its socket. The placement of the CNR slot is, on the other hand, without purpose for every Pentium 4 user.

Special Gigabyte feature - dual BIOS function.

Gigabyte's USB port is equipped with a jack.
