Most Favorable Review

ASUSual excellent product

ASUS M4A78T-E AM3 AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
ASUS M4A78T-E AM3 AMD 790GX HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: -Price,quality,ddr3,software,well thought out product. After many Intel system builds, I tried AMD this time for a change. Did the research, purchased the parts from the Egg and slapped it together. Fastest system I ever built to date. I am so impressed with this system for the price that it has me saying "I what core". Save your $$$ and tell intel thanks but no thanks. Buy the way, this build was for me and am not sure I will be going back to the other guys for my own personal rigs. My customers will love the price vs quality factor. Great budget board to build a fast system around. Did I mention it booted up at first turn on. OUTSTANDING!!!!!! Buy this board from the Egg, they are tops in my book.

Cons: Onboard video displays lines flashing on the screen, but I read a bios update may correct this. Anyway I just pulled a spare video card from my parts inventory.

Overall Review: Asus M4A78T-E AMD Phenom II X3 710 w/stock cooler 3 gigs corsair 1600mhz Win XP 32 SP3 Standard support equipment Have not overclocked yet, but it's comming.
