Best mobo I've ever had!
- Pros: Great price, slick color scheme, nice features. This board has everything you'd need or want. Overclocks fairly well even, always maintaining stability. CMOS button on the back panel (what a lifesaver)!
- Cons: There is nothing wrong with this board. If you need faster DDR3 speeds, SATA 6gbs, or anything else, buy a better, more expensive board.
- Other Thoughts: AMD Phenom 955 OC'ed @ 3.6ghz easy with stock cooler. No problems, but really curious to find out what this board can take.
Fast shipping by NewEgg
- Pros: Fast shipping by NewEgg, set up was a breeze with help ECS support using one of the numbers I saw on the response below
- Cons: Not really any.. probably can have more accessory but for the price, can’t complaint.
- Other Thoughts: Don’t usually write reviews, but I got the number from the manufacture response below when I run in some problem with hanging on boot up. ECS TSD help me troubleshoot and find one of the memory at fault, I had no problem reaching them.
Anything
- Pros: I have the Intel Version of this board and it works great. I do understand Intel processors do cost more but if you get one you will see the differences. I would buy another ECS board since I have owned 2 of them and had no problems with the board or Tech Support.
- Cons: I have had no problems.
- Other Thoughts: These people complaining about tech support from ECS are full of it. I have contacted ECS about both of the motherboards I have owned from them and I have never had a problem. What those people need to do is explain the problem and the troubleshooting steps so that things can be taken care of. You have to do that for every company you ever talk to.
