Review on GIGABYTE H310M A Motherboard: Superior Performance with LGA1151 Socket, Intel H310 Chipset, DDR4 Support, HDMI 1.4, and M.2 Interface by Cameron Reed

DOA, nothing to say

Looks like a great price. I'm pretty sure it's not Gigabyte's fault, it's something in the shipping. I have had many of their products and love them. I'm not sure who is to blame for this situation, but I would still buy Gigabyte products again. I originally bought it for i3-8300 quad core with 16GB DDR4 2466 RAM and onboard video. It's not really a hardcore gaming motherboard, gaming has become more of a buzzword these days. This board is more suited to a cheap, modern office computer that can handle decent video, plenty of fast storage, and up to 32GB of RAM. You need to buy dual channel RAM to get full speed. It requires 1 NVME drive directly under the GPU, which disables 1 SATA port. It doesn't support hardware RAID, but you can use software RAID on any set of drives if you need redundancy. It has built-in HDMI if you want to use the built-in video for a higher resolution monitor or TV. Only has 1 CPU fan header and 1 chassis fan header. Another plus is that it's the smaller of the two different microATX sizes and also only requires 4-pin CPU power. If you have an older power supply that you want to include in your build, this motherboard will do the trick.
