ZOTAC NF610I-E-E LGA 775 NVIDIA GeForce 7050 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: Works fine under windows xp and Windows 7 Beta 32bit haven't upgraded to the release candidate yet. First time building a PC and didn't have a problem. Would definitely choose this board again.

Cons: Like a previous post had mentioned had a problem with the sound when installed windows 7 but if you go to the sound driver you can run it under windows xp or vista compatible mode and works fine.

Overall Review: running e5200, 4 GB of G-Skill ram 2x2GB, 2x160 GB Seagate hard drive, and a EVGA 8600 GTS graphics card

Pros: Nice looking motherboard, great colors, and a nice layout if you aren't going to use the PCI slots. very easy to install (into the case) nice size too very small and compact, perfect for a micro ATX case. Zotac has friendly customer service reps, but they dont seem to very knoledgable

Cons: it was DOA after i hooked everything up, and it wasn't posting, i figured that i might be the lucky one out of the majority of the reviewers here to get the non DOA board, but i wasn't. paid for 3 day shipping came in 6 days... not neweggs fault but maybe they could offer cheaper shipping/longer day arrival time options.

Overall Review: Zotac is a nice company, and i think i would buy from them again, but newegg needs to maybe consider taking this board of their shelves, it seems as if most people are getting DOA boards, take your chances with this board and see how lucky you are. if you do the math there is about an 80% chance you could get a DOA board. lastly i wish i could have seen this board work, i love the color functionality y that they picked the size was just right, and the set up was perfect for me, but because im building this for a friend, i dont have time ti replace a DOA board over and over again.
