Pros: Great Board - My first build in five years and everything worked great! The board didn’t recognize the new processor (E8400) until updating the bios (extremely easy and fool-proof).

Cons: IDE connector for the DVD burner. This really isn't a problem - I wanted a round cable anyway so I purchaed one a little longer (36").

Overall Review: As long as you do your research you shouldn't have any problems with this board.
