It's ASUS :)
- Pros: I have been using ASUS mobos for about 7 years now and I have never had a serious issue. ASUS is great quality and performance in my book and this card is no different. It comes with a 790i nvidia chipset, very nice layout, GREAT performance, SLI works nicely (easy setup, I only used for a short time to test it with a friend's card) and it has an internal on/off button which is very useful when you are testing things or adding new hardware. And yes, it looks pretty with all the lights :)
- Cons: Haven't found any problems yet
- Other Thoughts: ASUS = Win
Don't buy
- Pros: Features looked good.. Board looks pretty
- Cons: Well I decided to buy this board because of the features and it had a lot that I liked. I didn't really research the board and wish I did, I have yet to find many places where anything good is said about it.
It worked properly for about the first 4 hours. Tried SLI and it would freeze going straight into windows. Out of no where the voltages where all extremely high verified in the bios and with many other programs. No matter what was tried in the bios the voltages where unchangeable. I also got the lovely cpu init error, clearing the cmos allowed it to boot again but it was just a glitchy piece of junk. I wouldn't recommend this board to anyone and because of my experience I ended up straying away from asus all together on the new build. Thankfully newegg refunded my money on this heap! Newegg = awesome, this board = horrible
- Other Thoughts: Don't buy unless you want something that looks pretty and won't function

Freezing till hard drive gives up
- Pros: It looks pretty with all the lights.
I would find another board for the price or less and not risk the trouble. When I purchased this board I read the reviews and decided to try my luck anyway... bad idea.
- Cons: I really gave this board a try. I spent two months trying to get this board to stop freezing. I posted on several forums related specifically to this board to get some additional expertise. I tried so many things I lost count...tried two different sets of memory, upgraded my power supply, tried every different version of the bios, updated all my drivers...on and on and on.
I don't give up easily, so I figured I would keep trying and dig into the bios in more detail and mess with the voltages. After trying dozens of configurations and wasting hours of time, I was at my wits end. The machine kept hard-locking and I had to reset it so many times that the partition got damaged on my hard drive, forcing me to reinstall Vistax64 twice. At that point I said screw it, bought a Gigabyte board for half the price with nearly all the features, and now I'm running perfectly. I know some people have had luck with this board, but if I can save anyone the trouble... look elsewhere.
