Note After creating the password(s) and key(s) associated the TPM, be sure to store them in a secure location and back them up. Loss of the password(s) or the key(s) will render the files encrypted via the TPM unable to be cracked or read.
Though the TPM delivers the latest data security technology, it does not guarantee data integrity or give hardware protection. GIGABYTE is not liable for loss of encrypted data as a result of hardware damage.
(Note)If you want to uninstall the Ultra TPM utility, be sure to insert the USB flash drive containing the TPM key into your computer before the uninstallation.
Remark Due to different Linux support condition provided by chipset vendors, please download Linux driver from chipset vendors' website or 3rd party website.

Note After creating the password(s) and key(s) associated the TPM, be sure to store them in a secure location and back them up. Loss of the password(s) or the key(s) will render the files encrypted via the TPM unable to be cracked or read.
Though the TPM delivers the latest data security technology, it does not guarantee data integrity or give hardware protection. GIGABYTE is not liable for loss of encrypted data as a result of hardware damage.
(Note) If you want to uninstall the Ultra TPM utility, be sure to insert the USB flash drive containing the TPM key into your computer before the uninstallation.

Interessatissimo perché dovrei fare un pc con ua di queste mobo e mi sto ancora chiedendo se sia da fidarsi vista l'assoluta novità.
Ma soto alla ds5 non ci sarà una ds4? E quali potrebbero essere le diferenze visto che già la ds5 ha 6 fasi di alimentazione, come tipicamente le ds4 (mentre le x38 ds5 ne han 12 come le dq6)?

Il thread è in costruzione ho aggiunto le altre schede sotto la ds5...cmq le differenze sono minime dipende da quanto vuoi spendere...cmq la più equilibrata sembra la DS4 o la DS3R...discorso a parte per la extreme veramente notevole la migliore P45 da overclock.... in vari forum esteri stanno facendo faville....

[papafoxtrot]

Pardon, ho visto adesso
Comunque si, le ds4 son sempre state la fascia migliore di gigabyte.
Ma ho sentito che la scheda dvrebbe integrare un tpm, è vero? Credo darebbe fastidio a molti...

sì è segnalato anche sul manuale della mobo....quelli della gigabyte lo danno come disattivabile poi in realtà non si sa

[wooshy]

quello che non mi è ben chiaro sono le differenze fra la dq6 e la ds5....a parte 2 porte lan e un paio di slot pci-express (che il 90% delle persone non usa) in meno sulla ds5 per il resto sono uguali....e la differenza di prezzo è sui 50€....molto meglio la ds5 imho

p.s. se ho sparato c*****e ditemelo tranquillamente

[papafoxtrot]

la ds5 ha 6 fasi di alimentazione conro le 12 tipiche delle dq6. Comunque le dq6 non sono mai state la migliore scelta appnto per il prezzo elevato.
Fra x38 dq6 e ds5 comunque non c'è neanche la dfferenza delle 12 fasi... li si potevan risparmiarsene una

non tutte solo alcune versioni DS5 - DQ6 e quelle con la P nella sigla....io non credo a tutta la storiella catastrofica del TC cmq a scanso di equivoci ho preso una DS4 senza TPM

[cdr700]

ke kosa è il tpm?

[papafoxtrot]

Ah ok ottimo.
Dunque mi confermate che la ds4 non ce l'ha.
...

ci sono due versioni:
-ds4 -> no tpm
-ds4p -> con tpm

[sfoneloki]

Si sanno i prezzi?
Magari se possibile specificatelo, come nel thread delle P5Q ASUS.

Nella versione EXTREME c'è scritto "4 x LAN "e poi dopo "2 x RJ45", forse è un errore di trascrizione?

I prezzi sono in continua evoluzione non penso sia utile metterli....cmq www.trovaprezzi.it può essere d'aiuto.


Ok corretto l'errore sulle lan.

La versione di punta è davvero allettante, direi ben fornita, ha persino 3 PCI 32bit che stanno diventando slot piuttosto rari ma sempre utili.
Peccato che nel BIOS queste schede non hanno una funzionalità simile all'express gate di Asus.

raga io sono indeciso se prendere la Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3R oppure la Asus P5Q Pro.. entrambe col p45.. ci dovrei mettere un q9450.. quale mi consigliate tra le due??

La DS3R ha una dotazione migliore (audio, porte ecc..)

[Brianless]

Ho da poco una EP45-ds5, ma collegando un hd alle porta sata aggiuntive non me lo vede. E` normale o devo pensare a un difetto hw ?

A voi funzionano ?
