Worth the effort
- Pros: Great over clocking options, and nearly anything you could want on a motherboard. Brainless RAID setup.
- Cons: Took me forever to get this board running. Had to swap both power supply, and graphics as it was incompatable with them. Once that was resolved, I still had to install Windows with one stick memory in third slot, and a standard PCI gfx card. I have not had so much trouble in more than ten years building!
- Other Thoughts: Once I got it up and running, it has been rock solid. OC'd a Pentium 805D to 3.8ghz with plenty room to go higher! Can't rate this board any higher however due to the effort it took to get it running, and Asus's crummy tech support. Word of advice: you want help, hiot their forums.
update
- Pros: lots of options in the bios for overclocking. has good range of cpu,s it supports. the layout is very good
- Cons: having said that YOU have to download the latest bios, the marvell controller does not work don't go nuts trying it will not work
- Other Thoughts: this mobo overclock's everything from the get go. go to the web site and you can get a lot of very good info to help you. Also this mobo will NOT NOT SUPPORT CONOE.
No CORE 2 DUO Support
- Pros: If you are planning on using Pentium D for the next several years, this is a great board with lots of features that make it worth the price. It was an easy installation with all the parts and very good documentation.
- Cons: As late as June '06, this board was listed by Asus as supporting "dual core Pentium D" AND "next generation 65nm CPU". I purchased this so I could upgrade from Pentium D to the next generation Core 2 Duo after it was released. Asus now says they will not support Core 2 Duo. So, NO "next generation 65nm CPU" support as Asus lists on their site. Big disappointment.
- Other Thoughts: Other than the fact that you will never be able to upgrade your processor if you're running Pentium D, it's a really nice board. For the price, I'd get something else that allows you to upgrade the CPU to Core 2 Duo.
