Thinking about getting this board or the ud3 gigabyte G3 out now , which is 20 quid cheaper . Can any of you guys tell me if this board is black or brown ? Iv watched several youtube reviews and maybe its just my eyes , i cant tell if the board itself looks brown ?
Iv got a twin forza III 6970 so want it to match up , not a deal breaker but would be nice if it blended in being black .

Anyone here using a AMD 7950 or 7970 with this board? and is using Bios version 1.00? I had to update my bios to 1.10 for my 7950 to work, just wondering if others had to also.
I'm using a 7970 mate, but can't say I've used rom version 1.00 at all. I stuck 1.10 on it more or less straight away and recently have been using 1.15 beta bios - all seems fine....

My mouse works great with both versions its a logitech G500. I just couldn't get 7950 to work with 1.00 once I updated to 1.10 it worked fine? Un-till I noticed my pci 6-pin is damaged games kept crashing and now since I am using a different set of cables it dont crash now.

Now and then when I switch on my PC in morning I get debug led A3 couple resets and I go into the bios my boot order has changed anyone else have this?
I have built four pc's using Extreme 4 Gen 3 boards, updated all to bios 1.10 & never had a issue with the inverted mouse.
But, if I use the usb 3 connectors on rear for mouse, I do get issues.

The mouse is not inverted! it just doesn,t go in the direction you want it to go when you move it. I will just go back to the 1.00 where it was better, Just a bit laggy.
tried other mouse ports? as the USB3 ones will have the issue more so than USB2

Yeah! Tried them all, the mouse is currently in the USB2 ports anyway. It's a Logitech MX518 Btw. Im not really fussed as I prefer to use the keyboard in Bios anyway. It was just an observation.
