hardCOREware.net checked out the Gigabyte 8IPE1000 Pro2-W 865PE motherboard with WiFi

When choosing a motherboard for your Northwood 2.4C, you need to consider one thing above all others: can it overclock at a high FSB rate? Well with this new board from Gigabyte, the answer is clearly YES.

It adds a ton of functions, not the least of which is an included WiFi adapter, something we are starting to see more and more on high end boards.

What did Gigabyte do to remedy this?
