Just over a week ago, I took a look at the Gigabyte 7ZXR motherboard, based on the KT133A chipset. Gigabyte also sent me another motherboard of theirs that has been anticipated by consumers for a while now, the 7DXR. This motherboard is based around the AMD 761 northbridge chipset and the VIA 686B southbridge.

Those of you who have been waiting for another choice in a DDR motherboard will surely want to see the rest of this review and what it may have to offer you.
