December 14, 201312 yr I have a Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 on my desktop, and that I may be for my unRAID upgrade. Gigabyte's product page: http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4305#sp lists the NIC as a 'Realtek PCIe GBE family' but doesn't say what controller it actually uses. This post http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=26260.msg229511#msg229511 indicates that there may have been some changes in the controller chip Gigabyte uses. Can anyone tell, from the web site, what controller chip is supposed to be on this board, and/or does anyone have a suggested utility to ID what chip is actually in my machine? I didn't see anything that jumped out at me browsing through the controller properties under Win7. As a side note, I've got an Athlon 2, X3 450 @ 3.5GHz in there, with 8GB of RAM. I'd imagine that would be more than enough for unRAID streaming to XBMC, SAB, SB & CP. I might add on a couple other plug-ins once I get to 5.0 (yeah, I'm on 4.7, yeah, I know...) and see what's there.
July 21, 201411 yr I hate to bring up really old posts, but i'm looking at purchasing this board very soon (like today). Did you ever get this board up and going without issue?
