ASUS L1N64-SLI WS Dual L(1207FX) NVIDIA nForce 680a SLI MCP SSI CEB AMD Motherboard

Pros: Everything!!!!!!!

Cons: Everything!!!!!!!

Pros: THIS IS A FOLLOW UP NEWEGG HAS HONOR THIS MOTHERBOARD EXTENDED WARRANTY, LIKE I THOUGHT THEY WOULD. IT RENEW MY FAITH IN THEM. THANK YOU NEWEGG.

Cons: NONE

Pros: good motherboard

Cons: I purchase a 1 year extened warranty back in 2008 my motherboard took a turn for the worst. Newegg some how turn the manufacture warranty of 3 year to 1 year. And now my warranty on this board is no good. My warranty should be good intil Feb 2012. Tiger d. show a three year warranty along with other including ASUS. Newegg refuse to honor this warranty. Sevicenet also told me that that is a newegg mistake and they(servicenet) cannot do anything. Since Newegg has told servicenet the warranty ended in 2010.

Pros: Heats the room on a cool day.

Cons: Too many to list. When I bought this board I was a huge Asus fan. Everything sounded so promising about this board. I loaded it up with two FX74's and 4GB Crucial memory and have had nothing but disappointment since. It has been quirky and flaky. It won't load Win7. Asus has severed their support. The last BIOS update was in 2007. Now to add insult to injury the board drains the 3V lithoium cell in less than 3 weeks. So every 3 weeks I have to replace the lithium cell, reload the BIOS, and reload Kaspersky (for some reason when the Lithium cell drain causes a no start it corrupts Kaspersky. I'm so mad I could spit on this board but that would probably smoke it and I'd be completely out of commission.

Other Thoughts: I don't really expect anyone will ever see this post but it at least helped me theraputically to vent. I have never been less satisfied with any computer component, and I've probably spent over $50,000 on them over the last 20 years.

Pros: when working its a nice board that accepts all kinds of goodies
good memory speed, nice processors and other such things

Cons: ASUS RMA... if you have any problems with the board expect at least 2 weeks down time. they say 10 business days but i am currently on 15 business days and still waiting for my RMA to be filled... they don't have an 800 number either.

Other Thoughts: asus needs to fix their RMA or they are going to loose a lot of business. People don't want to buy products from companies that they have to fight with to use a warranty... The consumer also has to pay for one way shipping.

Pros: good while it lasted

Cons: 6 months having this board it failed. After a month of ruling every other component out, it was decided the MoBo was bad. Unfortunatley, I had to go through Asus RMA (not Newegg). That is when hell on earth began.
Asus support RMA and shipping Dept sucks!!! I was lied to 2 times as far when it would ship. They say it will ship in 10 days, @11 days told it will ship in 2 days. After them having my MoBo for 3 weeks they finaly sent a "replacement" board (not new...don't be fooled) It took a week to get via ground. The Mobo was stuffed into a undersized box with virtually no padding, every capicitor was bent over. And worse yet the pins in the socket were bent. On the 2nd cpu socket there was notable excess thermal grease from previous install, and dust prevelant. At this point I have to ship this hunk of s^!t back and wait for a "new" one. They say they will over night..yeah right!

Other Thoughts: Make sure it's your MobO thats bad Because you WILL get a nutted on board back in return.
It cost me $20 to send it to them, and I have about $25 in long distance charges ( yeah they dont have a toll free #) and endless hours of aggravation.
I have a asus products in my box o'plenty....I from now on will never buy Asus again!!!!!

Pros: Has everything you need. Really. I am impressed with all the doodads and options and how future proof the board is. It keeps cool too.

Cons: Get a full tower. Tis a monster board.

Other Thoughts: The fans are a tad noisy. Only option for Quad FX and I have nooo idea if this socket will ever get a quad core. I hope so.

Pros: This is a great board and really the only choice with AMD FX-74 dual chips. With two cpu it works great as a workstation for graphics and video editing and to serve files to my work group. It runs Ubuntu and Suse Linux flawlessly and I VM Windows XP with little loss of speed (other than the normal slugo nature of Win XP). it is fast and I can run 4-5 programs, rip music and serve files with very little loss in speed or hang.

Cons: Because of dual CPU placement the right case is hard to find. Also the Socket L (1207) is not the easiest to find good cpu cooling units, but these are minor and really reflect more on AMD

Pros: Dual Socket, 4 PCI Express slots, 12 SATA Ports, supports 3 - way SLI (Quad SLI, when it exists), feature loaded, supports 8gb of ram

Cons: One PCI slot, bulky, does not fit in smaller cases, not good for overclocking (excessive heat)

Other Thoughts: This motherboard is the best. I am currently using this with 2 FX-74 cpus, and am planing to use 3-way SLI in the future. It simply pwns every other consumer motherboard in terms of expansion and features. Oh, AMD public relations did say that they are working on a quad core cpu that will fit in this socket, but it will probably be under the opteron name.

Pros: Another awesome product from Asus and new egg. Now I can try the raid set-up.

Cons: none
