Gigabyte G1.Sniper M3 mATX Gaming Motherboard Unboxing & First Look
18 replies, posted
Now this is the sort of thing that makes me jealous of Garry everyday, it makes me cringe and almost cry at the sheer knowledge that this even exists and the fact that Garry own's a Motherboard like this (or exact).

I wish I could afford something like this, I hope I don't be as lazy as I am now because I haven't started saving up that much for the desktop I'm about to build. I must've wasted almost $200 because I expected to actually save up for a full $1,200 laptop when I realized how much of a douche I was and that I could build a desktop for less. Silly me... Anyway enjoy the video. Oh, I wasted the money on Mcdonalds combo's (I'm not fat I just get that hungry at times). I think that might be my problem, food.
I wouldn't blindly praise anything that has "rugged", "military", "killer", "armor" or "sniper" in the name.
That name sounds abit immature.
Might as well just name it

Garry made a remark similar to that, he pointed out that it's not a motherboard for a man approaching his 30's.
Man what a scrub why didn't he get the one with the magazines on the motherboard??
I will never purchase from Gigabyte.
I got a really old PC from my fiancee's Dad so I could use it for it's PCI slot, to connect my sata controller to flash my xbox, and I had to burn dosflash to a fucking disk even though the BIOS claimed to have support for booting from USB.
It literally wasted 2 hours of my life. Never again!

...Really. That's your reason for never buying from Gigabyte? Because it's dumb.
Yeah inconvenient, but likely the problem with an incompatible/nonstandard usb or wrong filesystem on it.

That's a shit reason to not use em.
Never had any problems with a Gigabyte motherboard. Best brands are probably Asus, MSI and Gigabyte. Now ASRock motherboards, those things are pieces of shit.
Well, it's nice he just happens to have a GTX 680 lying around, dammit. :v:
Welp that's what happens when you have a career, its not like building computers is particularly expensive, if you have a 6 figure job you can make a whole new computer every month if you felt that was a good idea or something

In other words, believe in yourself and you can buy everything you've ever wanted!

I'm not a fucking retard ok. I tried multiple devices AND formatted with FAT32. I googled the problem and it the only way to resolve it was to flash the BIOS.
I ended up compiling a custom version of DOS with USB support for my keyboard, and I booted off of a motherfucking floppy drive, so I know what I'm talking about ok!?! I know how BIOS works, I know what a boot loader is etc.
I assure you, I troubleshooted my setup and it WAS THE MOTHERBOARD.
All I can get from the Wellington institute of Technology Petone campus is Pentium 4 3.0Ghz machines that have only the motherboard and cpu, Everything else I could get but need to save up a little more.
They have 1 PCI-Express x16 slot but I don't know how far I can take that in terms of whichever graphics card it can handle, I also know it needs 1GB x4 to make it 4GB (it's maximum).
I don't know, they are used and are not worth keeping if I can't find appropriate parts and such.
So flamboyant I can't handle it
pro sniper mobo, I'm surprised there isn't a bullet heat sink, but wow those stickers are hilarious.
You know the stickers have integrated circuitry and processors speeding up your computer if you attach them to the case and monitor.

My mobo has "military grade components" on it. Am i still cool?
Nah, it's literally just saying the metal parts on it are built from military grade metals.
The computer I built last summer still feels so new but I'm getting really jealous of people that have these new motherboards, Ivy Bridge, and 680.
God dammit.
Aside from the name and stickers that is a nice looking motherboard.
