Great Board, No Problems

ASUS P6T6 WS Revolution with NF200 3xPCIe true x16 LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard

Pros: I haven't had any compatibility issues at all with this board. The majority of users offering negative feedback don't seem to have taken the time to properly research the components they would be using along with this board. Additionally, complaining about issues arising from an overclocked component are absurd. If you bolted on a turbocharger on to your car and blew up the motor while drag racing, you wouldn't expect the manufacturer to stand behind their product. Why then do people expect the sort of service from an electronics manufacturer. Fools...

Cons: No firewire may be an issue for some users, but I can't remember the last time I've used it. I now have an inactive firewire connection on the front of my case, but no one has to know that it's a "bridge to nowhere". The lack of an internal floppy connector came as a bit of a surprise. I probably use a floppy drive even less frequently than I use firewire, but I needed one to install my RAID drivers for Windows XP. "Borrowing" a USB floppy drive from a local store resolved the issue, and I have since upgraded to Vista x64 to avoid the necessity of a floppy drive in the future.

Overall Review: Disregard any of the reviews claiming that ASUS has dropped the ball with this board. I fired up with zero issues over a month ago, and have been running fine ever since. If you're looking for a tweaker board to push to the limits of melting, then don't be surprised when things blow up on you. In this instance, it's really too bad that newegg has enough integrity to leave some of these fools' reviews up... Perhaps they should require users to pass a basic intelligence test before being given the privilege to post a review.

Pros: Excellent scanning and connectivity. Very easy to install and configure. I see no reason to upgrade the antennas at this time, but it's nice to know that I have the option.

Cons: None

Overall Review: I finally got fed up with the 2WiRE adapter that AT&T provided me with. The constant drops had always been a nuisance during basic internet surfing, but I had to draw the line when it came to online gaming.

I only ordered a couple ink cartridges, but they were delivered quickly, and are performing as expected.
