No issues with installation or first boot using i5-4690+16gb Corsair Vengance Pro 1866+Gtx 770. Stress tested 8 hours no problem. Really like the additional CPU OPT fan header. EUFI is easy to understand and gives some indication of what each function does. Gigabyte software available for the motherboard is good. Creative X-FI had to be uninstalled because it conflicts with Logitech gaming software which is used for wireless G930 headset. Ports are adequate for my needs. Benchmarks well. No K series processor so I can not comment on overclocking.

Had no problems with this motherboard. I got this motherboard with an Intel Core i5-4670K because I just couldn't wait for the 4690K (was the weekend before release :P) Before I had this motherboard, I had an AMD Athlon X4 750K with a Gigabyte GA-F2A75M-HD2. I had exactly no problems with that board, either. Every Gigabyte board I've owned so far haven't failed me (I've owned the two mentioned). In fact, the GA-F2A75M-HD2 currently lives in my brother's rig and gives him no problems. The onboard audio is also good. I got HD 558s, plugged them into the onboard audio, and no problems whatsoever. No distortion, nothing. There is nothing I would change about this board. I will never 3-Way or 4-Way SLI so I wouldn't need the extra bandwidth and another PCI-E slot. You can even run the Intel iGP with (a) dedicated GPU(s). I like this feature because it lets me run my second monitor on my iGP which would otherwise sit there doing nothing. The overclocking on this board is solid. I haven't seen the max you could go, but I'm not planning on going as far as I can. It's fairly straightforward. You can change the multiplier by just entering a number. I haven't completely fine tuned my overclock because of temperatures. As of now my 4670K gets to 70 Celsius @ Max with F@H (which heats up your CPU more than anything). I guess I'll keep this overclock and I'll have my own winter overclock. I got the CPU to 4.5 GHz with 1.35V and the max temps were 78 Celsius+. But that's my chip's fault, nothing to do with this great motherboard with ease of use.

My rig :
Intel Core i5-4670K @ 4.0 GHz (1.15V)
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo
Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 3 (in case you hadn't guessed)

Lan drops everyday and needs a reboot or repair, otherwise, ok so-so build and quality. The killer Lan and onboard sound leaves a lot of room for improvements. Also no matter what I tried I couldn't get one system board driver to install under 8.1 64bit, namely the SM Bus Controller for any SD media. I do like that you can use the onboard video in addition to a nvidia card for additional 3rd and 4th monitors.

Love the red led this Motherboard have, it made me change all my fans and lights of my case, because I have blue leds all over the place, this motherboard has a lot of features, by default it overclocks my Core i5 3.4Ghz processor to 3.8Ghz without hesitation :), only issue I found if you are using Win 7 Ultimate 64bits, is that the Gigabyte software that comes with it is the one behind the several BSOD I had in the past, I just research about at Google, and found out about it, I use some of the software that came with the motherboard but not all of them, I think I uninstall 3 of the ones that comes with it because of the BSOD, for the rest I'm really happy about the performance and features this motherboard offers, no matter about the BSOD when you fix it, I recommend this motherboard.

Haven't had an issue yet. it is a compact card, so running two GTX560Ti's in SLi will hide the PCix4 slot and 2 of the PCI slots, but that's true for MOST of the MB's on the market today. High quality sound with SoundBlaster software, up to 7.1 speaker configuration, I have 5.1 Creative speakers (amp in woofer), no complaints so far.

Board has performed as expected. For the price its a pretty high performance board! Quality doesnt seem to be lacking even with the low price. Gigabyte has made a good product with a great price here. Cant give it five stars until I have had it for a while, but im impressed thus far.
