945 G Mobo or G31.. better one?

[ScS :: XTR]

i am gonna buy a new mobo and ram. so i thought i should get the Gigabyte 945 G at 3700 taka. but is there another G31 mobo ? whats its use and is it better than 945 G?

i need a PCI E X16 SLOT which is included in 945 G but how about the G31

PS. plz dont suggest high end mobos coz my budget is only 4000 tk

G31 vs. 945G.
I would recommend to try to up your budget, since new and upcoming graphics cards these days turn out more to be PCIe x16 2.0 supported* only and none of these two (G31 - 1.1 & 945G - 1.0) motherboards can afford them.

[abir]

b2in these 2 go for G31 as it supports 45nm processors, so u can update later.

[ornithologist_]

G31 wud be a better suggestion for you, if you can afford.

as said earlier in one of my posts,dont buy 945 as u can get foxconn g31 which gives very good preformance and costs only 3800tk

Dunno about 945 but i currently am using G31 and it is satisfactory. Overclock o korte parba. It comes with some third party overclocking tools.

Foxconn G31 mobo=3800 tk? lol thts impressive. Tell me the model no if u can and what are other brands? is gigabyte/asus/intel available?

i was thinkin of getting a gigabyte 945 g..... a nieghbour of mine just bought it and i saw it was awesome. And for the PCI E 2.0 question, well i am gonna get a 8500 GT from my bro and i think a good motherboard will be a perfect match.

@creatorbro - bhai apnar G31 kon brand ar modeler? plz let me know. thnx guys

The G31 will b better...

1. Uses a bit more advanced process than a 945. (Low power consumtion, less heat)
2. Supports greater FSB (upto ~ 1666 through O.C.)
3. Supports 45nm process

please give me some info on prices of G31 mobos

i already know Foxconn is 3800 tk
how much is gigabyte?

[GiDDY_SOUL]

It should b between 4500-4000tk. Foxconn mobos should b gud also.

My GIGABYTE was a GA-G31M-S2L

1. It doesnt have a IEEE1394a port.
2. Its Audio is a Realtek 6 CH HD (ALC662)

My board however supports GIGABYTE's EASY ENERGY SAVER TECHNOLOGY
Its a Hardware based Energy saver powered by intersil. To enable it I had to update my BIOS to Version F7
