great but not perfect

This review is from: GIGABYTE GA-EP35-DS3R LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Dynamic Energy Saver Ultra Durable II Intel Motherboard
Pros:
great features and installation was a snap. No issues in stock settings. its also a pretty good overclocker. I've got my q6600 running at 3.0ghz without a sweat. We'll see if i can push it a little more.
Cons:
I cannot put my computer into standby when my processor is overclocked. It will power down in windows standby mode but cannot boot back up. Apparently this is a known issue with the board after reading up on it on some forums. Kind of annoying but I can live with it since I usually keep my computer off. Hopefully new bios will help. At stock settings computer gets into standby just fine.
Overall Review:
for the price, features, and OC'ability it was a no brainer. Good quality parts on it too. Read cons and see if its worth it for you as my issue is a rare but not isolated incident.
