Pros: Installed and ran perfectly fist chance. MOBO is clearely marked for an easy installation. IDE for HDD is in a very odd spot making it hard to install if you already have a graphics card in the PCIE slot there. I only had to use it because my SATA DVD rom wasnt there yet... OCing is VERY easy, expecially if you install the MOBO Software utility.. You can even save different profiles for quick changing on the fly... awesome!@

Cons: IDE for HDD is in a very odd spot - no big deal really

Overall Review: actually didnt mean to order the mini atx board - there were 2 promos one for normal atx, one for this one.. i picked the wrong one after researching and having them both in my shopping cart (deleted wrong one) BUT - its ok. Dont need that many PCI spots anyways :D In bios, disable the BLUE Leds on the mobo if you have a window... they flash so much it makes me feel like im getting teretts syndrome... hah

Pros: I LOVE the quick power connects. makes it very easy to keep the inside of your case clean... It cools very well on its own. Black color is nice, just wish there werent all the stickers on it ... A LOT of different power cables included A+++

Cons: none

Overall Review: none
