Pros: Long cables, Very neat bundling keeps clutter to minimum. plenty of SATA, Quiet PS

Cons: none noted as of yet

Overall Review: Great looking packaging, super looking product,

Pros: Many USB ports, great monitoring software for hardware.

Cons: clip to memory channel A1 is very close to video card

Overall Review: Manual is incorrect when it states to use channel B1 and A1 when using 2 memory modules. I went through ASUS tech support and Crucial tech support and finally figured out on my own that I needed to use B1 and B2. I have 2 512mb modules and it will not recognize 1024 when in slots B1 and A1 it only recognizes 512, So if you have the same prob use channel B1 and B2

Pros: Great software for hardware monitoring, overclocking and BIOS updating. Plentifull USB ports. FAST integrated LAN

Cons: Layout of the power connectors for the 12v for processor is too far away from the 24 pin power connector. A capictor near the power connector may get in the way of installing DVD/CD drives. Make sure your case is deep enough, at least 19inches.

Overall Review: Over all a great motherboard, my first ASUS board and am very impressed. Fast shipping by Newegg
