Comments: I have had this board for almost two years and have never had any problem with it. Megadeath is wrong. I have one stick of PC2700 512mb DDRRAM on it an dit works flawlessly. I have an FX 5900 ULTRA which is a massive card and it does not even touch the ram, I dont know what his problem is. This board is most likely the best board for the socket A platform. The NFORCE 2 chipset is a must have because most other chipsets bog down your system when you use onboard sould, but the NFORCE 2 chipset handles audio with the buses so the processor doesnt even feel the load. So, you dont need to buy a soundcard to upgrade system performance. PROS - NFORCE 2 is the best chipset for socket A - Overclocking is a breeze with awesome BIOS - You can tell the board to shut down when the system thermal temperature exceeds a certain predefined temperature. - Compatable with every type of memory I have tried. - ITS GOLD!! CONS - I cant load the soltek website at work
