Overclocking results

Nothing to mention here guys, locate Easy Tune III software on the CD and install.  Easy Tune III is basically Gigabyte's version of Soft FSB that only works for their motherboards, and is a Windows-only program, so alternate OS users will not be able to overclock with this software.  The CPU that I used was my own PIII-700E, that I overclocks easily to 933Mhz on any other motherboard supporting PIII's and 133Mhz FSB.  I would assume that the Gigabyte-60MM7 would'be been able to achieve the same overclock.

Conclusion:

The micro-ATX form factor has become popular for many SOHO, institutional (schools), and corporate settings.  You can have a relatively high-performing PC without sacrificing too much space with a big desktop case/tower.  Of course, to go with that smaller micro-ATX case, you'll definitely want a decent motherboard too.  The Gigabyte-60MM7 is a decent motherboard that can satisfy most SOHO, schools, and corporate settings, because it brings you the stability of the Intel 815E chipset, as well as 'decent' onboard video and sound.   My disappointment with the weak overclocking capabilities of the motherboard, as well as the rather irksome placement of capacitors around the CPU socket are somewhat absorbed into non-issues.  I say this because, the Gigabyte-60MM7 is not intended to be a heavy duty, tweaker's, crowd-pleasing motherboard.  It's really intended for installations in which size and compatibility reign supreme, and when the biggest alternative to this product is from Houston Technologies... the Gigabyte-60MM7 is a the clear cut choice.
