It’s amazing that GIGABYTE include DVI-port, HDMI, IEEE together at the back panel. I seldom see a board with both DVI and Analog port stand together. This prove that the Integrated graphic processor is strong enough to have its own DVI port without additional card.

Let’s hear what is user commenting on GIGABTYE GA-MA69GM-S2H. Below is the conclusion of all comment that you can find at several rating sites. Let’s Begin with the positive feedback first:

Pros of GA-MA69GM-S2H

  • Love the HDMI support
  • All connectors are labeled - easy installation and the manual is very detail
  • Suitable for Multimedia PC - have a bunch of options
  • Cheap / affordable price
  • No need to overclock - everything is in the optimal setting already

Cons of GIGABYTE GA-MA69GM-S2H

  • Strange SATA port placement
  • Cannot support 4Gb properly under 32-bit OS
  • Cannot OverClock because there is no option for it - Need to update BIOS
  • Some issue with the northbridge headsink - get hot easily


GIGABYTE GA-MA69GM-S2H is a simple board with full-packed features. As usual, this board is cheap. The price range will not cross the border of $100.
