Awesome MOBO

I think this mother board is good for an advanced user that is interested in minimal oc'ing.

Destroyed a old PCI video card while testing OC'ing. I was waiting for my PCI-X 16 to come in.

Very stable, nice over clocking abilities and is on the OSX86 project list for Mac OSX compatibility.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Troublesome Memory Support

Once you get it working it seems to be OK. Good board layout, good price. With an E6750, 10K RPM SATA HDD and the 8800GTX video - the system is lightning fast.

Memory support is poor. Even off the shelf Corsair DDR2-800 memory WILL NOT function in this board without first enabling overclocking (even though I have no desire to overclock) and customizing BIOS memory settings. I couldn't just put this one together and run. I consider this a huge detractor for the average home builder who just wants to put the latest stuff together and run - tons of my time wasted figuring that one out - no posts, random crashes, errors galore, etc, etc. Also - no built in firewire support.

The "AUTO" settings in BIOS give a very false sense of security. I will remember this episode the next time I purchase a mobo. Asus WAS king in my "brand name" book - but I will have a more open mind next time. Buying from NewEgg has been a good experience: cheap, fast and no monkey business !!
