Bill, Newegg
11 April 2013
  • Pros: None, never managed to get a working board.
  • Cons: First board I received I hooked all up and determined it was dead, the second one came and I was having the same issues. This was highly unlikely so I found known work...

Good entry level enthusiast board

Bezurn, Newegg
11 April 2013
  • Pros: Three PCI Express slots, though it may be hard to make use of them all. A decent amount of ports on the back, with support for some legacy peripherals such as PS/2 and...

Bumbed Out, Newegg
5 April 2013
  • Summary: they where both $149 but over 6 years different.... Not really Impressed. I can't use the onboard RAID because I do not have enough ports for the drives.
  • Pros: Works. USB 2.0 seems to have an extra 3MB/s transfer compared to the Intel board that this replaces when using external drives.
  • Cons: This board does NOT support any ram higher then 1600 unless you overclock it. 1866 DDRIII does work, but you need to overclock the board. The 4X PCI-E isn't very compa...

Holds it's own

Newegg
3 April 2013
  • Pros: So, you are concerned that this motherboard may turn out to be a flop.....don't be. This motherboard holds it's own again some of the more expensive competitors. I bou...
  • Cons: No PCI Express 3.0. This may not necessarily be much a con for some. Its not a pressing issue with me....certainly not enough for me to reduce any stars as a result.
