After Review

Pros: Performs as advertised. Love it
Cons: Read my earlier review under cburk77.
Overall Review: Sure, it was a hassle. The factory bios didn't like my video card at all. Folks, save yourself some headache. Update the bios first thing. Before installing a video card or anything extra. Just in case.... Intel tech support is incredible.
Little disgusted

Pros: bought two. intel i-3 530 Intel DH55TC MB 4G Corsair DDR3 dual channel HD5770 First build, set up nicely without a hitch. Very nice. Love it.
Cons: Second one...remember I bought two of everything mentioned above...second one is irritating me no end. I'll give Intel tech support 5 eggs. They're very good. This board is TOUCHY. Any changes I've made on this particular board result in my having to reset the CMOS and/or other drastic measures that SHOULD be unecessary. It comes from the factory with an outdated bios that's not supported by my cpu. Apparently, I got lucky on the first one. when updating it, it crashed and I had to run out and buy a jump drive and use the "BIO" download from Intel. It worked. I get all drivers updated and install the drivers for my Video card ok. However, when I switched monitors, I get a no post...Nothing. It's dead and I'm MAD AS HELL. To top it off, Intel tech lines are down for "maintenance".
Overall Review: Reference #9627193 if any Intel employees read this. I'll buy intel again in 5 years when I can afford a new build. As it stands, right now I'm disgusted and mad. Buy it. It's a great board. I just think I got a bad one. *finished ranting*
Not quite

Pros: It started out great. Put up great numbers.
Cons: It's running hot. I'm playing WoW which shouldn't be THAT demanding. What happens is, I get these tears in the graphics. There will also be black patches just missing or flickering graphics. It does this on WoW and WildStar.

Great buy

Pros: First, let me be clear: I'm not an over clocker or one that does a lot of tweaking. I read other reviews where folks talked about issues with drivers and software that came with it. So, I downloaded all of the updated drivers and loaded to a jump drive. This made set up easy and I had none of the issues other's mentioned.
Cons: Too much bloatware.
Overall Review: It works for me. I'm a casual gamer that plays wow. My latency is 23-35 MS and with my set up I'm basically lag free. So I'm happy.
Very pleased

Pros: Does everything I wanted. It's quiet and powerful.
Cons: Not a big fan of the flat wires.

Pretty Good

Pros: Roomy. Plenty of slots for the average builder. It looks good. I like the fact that the design is fairly simple. I hate those cases that look like they're out of a Japanese Cartoon...
Cons: Metal is a little flimsy and some of the edges are sharp. You're not in danges of being cut or anything. But you'll notice them. plastic clips to hold in peripherals are flimsy. No Big deal though.
Overall Review: 5 eggs for getting exactly what I expected. It's a good case and a good buy. Any complaining needs to remember: If you want a Lian Li, go buy a friggin Lian Li!
