Just installed my Gigabyte 880GM-UD2H into the case and I noticed something, that I'm sure has been mentioned before, but "they" keep doing it it seems.
What I'm referring to is the fact that the SATA ports are positioned only a couple inches away from the end of the PCI-e slot. So once I put my 4870x2 card in I'm not going to be able to connect anything...
I realise the 880GM-UD2H is a cheap motherboard but still, surely this could be avoided. They've managed to position the Floppy connector and the IDE connector nicely out of the way!
Am I gonna have to send the motherboard bundle back?
Why didn't I think to check earlier, there are enough pictures of the board!
Anyway, I thought it might be interesting for people to mention any other design flaws they've come across. Could be amusing and also something for the rest of us to watch out for.
