This review is from: GIGABYTE GA-970A-D3P (rev. 1.0) AM3+/AM3 AMD 970 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
Pros:
It is pretty good for a first pc, but you'll definitely get the itch to upgrade later. Handled everything I put on it pretty well and OC'd my CPU very nicely. My NIC went out after a while (just under a year) but I was wanting to upgrade anyway.
Cons:
It didn't line up with the pegs on my case so it didn't have as much support. The bios isn't as user friendly, but as an entry level board it's not a surprise.
