Pros: Posted no problems. Raid setup no problems. Plenty space between video card slots. More options than ABIT board BIOS. Easy overclocking for beginners.

Cons: No bling unlesss you like black. You have to make your own F6 disk. Uses a 2 prong power on led connector. I'm going to change my 3 prong.

Overall Review: I think I like this board. I used to buy only ABIT. i bought it when it was xxx i like the layout. It's in a lian li v-2000. The front panel 1394a won't reach. That's the only other thing I can think of. See my specs at 3800+ AM2 Athlon 64,(single core)

Pros: I bought this as a placeholder until the new 65nm chips come out. i didn't try past 1.45v. Acts like an OPTY. i'm sure this will do 3.0ghz. i just don't want to push that hard now.

Cons: Single core. Cache sizes are small. AM2 socket mounting plate is different. I had a hard time getting an Apogee mounting plate.

Pros: Aluminum, not Steel. Stock fans actually good. Much cooler and quieter than wvmaster I just replaced. OCZ 520 fits w/ 1 vert. bracket removed. All hard drive bays usable. Doesn't have the usual fan spinning mechanical sound. I just hear air moving. I like that.

Cons: No factory window available yet.

Overall Review: Seems higher quality than my V2000A work rig or V1000A Plus game rig. Using this one as small busines server. The work rig is watercooled w/ 3 blocks, (6) 120mm fans w/ fan controller, This case is a little quieter.

Pros: Easy install on AN8 SLI fatality Very quiet even at 2400 RPM Can point in 4 directions. Lowered my temps 5 deg. C from SI-120

Cons: Fins are sharp.

Pros: Stable at 280 HTT. Will probably go higher. I'm running at 275 24/7. 2.75 volts, timings @ 3457 1T. I'm buying another kit when I go XP Pro 64. This kit performs like the Mushkin redline for less money.

Cons: OCZ PC4000 Plat. EB probably gone forever.
