EVGA X79 DARK - LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 E-ATX Motherboard with Brand New GUI BIOS (150-SE-E789-KR)
EVGA X79 DARK - LGA 2011 Intel X79 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 E-ATX Motherboard with Brand New GUI BIOS (150-SE-E789-KR)

Pros: The overclock is stable.

Cons: This board has been RMA twice and is still not performing reliably. Issues which persist: (1) Frequent reboots at start. Once it is up and running it is fine. (2) Has trouble identifying the correct boot disk and goes to the wrong disk with the resulting message of no O/S. Reboot and go to bios and reset the boot sequence and it is fine, until the next time.

Overall Review: The time it takes to RMA a product makes me hesitant to do it as I will be without a computer for three to four weeks. As long as it can perform once it is up and running I'll just continue with the irritant of start up. I would have thought that EVGA would have taken the problem more seriously and fixed it before. Failing that they should offer a new board until all problems are resolved that way the customer is less inconvenienced..

Pros: MSI has really stepped it up in the past few years with solid and reliable Motherboards. In addition their BIOS software also performs really well.

Cons: Not cheap but quality never is. Pays in the long run.

Overall Review: Absoluty a 5 out of 5.

Lost package

After other items arrived from Newegg I became concerned as there was no updates on the shipping of the optic drive. Look like their server is down and the package is lost. No message from the supplier. Nor recommended.
