Gigabyte A320M-S2H

The A320M-S2H is a motherboard manufactured by the Gigabyte Corporation in New Taipei City. It is packed with modern features that one would expect of any modern board, and you can read about it in the documentation manual; however the most important question for me was whether I could use it to make a stable reliable computer system for general office use. For the most part, it works very well and I didn’t encounter any serious issues. For me the most important was transitioning from BIOS to UEFI technology, and I was glad to find that they have implemented lots of clever automation that makes the booting seamless.

Gigabyte is an extremely well-known company that I came across in the mid 1980s, and they are one of the leaders in motherboard design and construction. If you have used their motherboards before you might be familiar with the start-up logo "Ultra Durable" which always gives me a feeling of reliability. They were one of the first to use solid capacitors, which made their motherboards one of the most stable. Whilst other manufacturers used conventional capacitors that deteriorated over time and made the system unstable, their motherboards tend to remain stable much longer and are therefore still valuable in the pre-used markets today.
