Most Critical Review

Ran Great for 2 months, then DRAM issues

Pros: The motherboard was easy to use and the documentations were actually clear and helpful. I experienced no notable issues with the board or system until below...

Cons: After two months, literally to the day, I woke up and attempted to boot the system and got nothing but a black screen with the board's DRAM LED lit. Nothing had changed since the night prior. Attempting to remove / swap / isolate RAM cards and DIMMS, reset CMOS, etc. did nothing. Prior to this complete failure, I had a couple instances of stalled boots prior to POST, but never noticed the DRAM light. Cycling power resolved the issue and I didn't think anything of it. Outside of this though, I never had a single hiccup - after building the system booted right up and ran like a dream, which makes the failure more upsetting and puzzling.

Overall Review: Its a great board when it works, but there appear to be some underlying issues with some components.
