Pros: I really like the bios interface on this mobo really easy to use and love that I can use my mouse in it. I believe that most motherboards now days have that capability not too sure. Also I installed a cpu cooler and it stays at a nice cool 25 degrees Celsius (70F) while on my old mobo the cooler only cooled my cpu from 170F (while gaming) down to 150F with cooler on which is pretty bad.

Cons: will list when this one craps out. But hopefully it wont.

Pros: Did its job until now.

Cons: burned out. fan squeaks like it needs wd40 and hasn't even lasted a full year just yet. I dust my machine regularly and still burned out... you get what you pay for in this scenario.

Pros: lets just say I never have to wait for anything to load. I got ADD and this is some quality ram. First time I had 8gb's of ram though but Patriot is a good brand. Speed up your life with these puppies. I'm thinking about picking up 2 more sticks to rock 16gb of ram.

Cons: none thus far
