If anyone is considering building a Hackintosh to run Snow Leopard, this board is fabulous for the task. Runs the latest 10.6.5 build of OS X perfectly. Full sound, graphics, network, sleep and even USB 3.0.
I did a new system build with this mobo, a i5 760 processor, OCZ 60gig Vertec II drive, 8 gigs of G.Skill ECO ram, 2 GTX 470's in SLI and a Corsair AX 850 PSU. Installed everthing, hit the power button, no issues!
I have never had such an easy build before.

You do pay for quality. In this case, one of the most well equipped and stable boards perfect for overclocking. Great board layout, most highly recommended.

Here is a checklist for installing this motherboard.
1.) Always use memory that is listed on the motherboards compatibility list. http://www.giga-byte.com/FileList/MemorySupport/mb_memory_ga-p55a-ud4p.pdf

This board was out of stock so I had to switch to the Asus equivalent. Both are solid choices, overclocks well. Not much more to add really, highly recommended to those looking at a i5 processor.

Other than the architectural limitations causing crossfire to slow down when running along side SATA3 and USB 3.0, in which the Asus P7P55DE-PRO has a better workaround design, this is one of best budget boards you can get. No real complaints here, would definitely buy again.

Beautiful motherboard, good power saving features that still do good with overclocking. Running stable with i7 860 t 3.0 GHZ. 8 gigs ram with 2 sticks. Still cant figure those metal tabs on the i.o sheild
