Blazing fast!
Overall Review: This motherboard is FAST! Been a while since I have needed to build a PC and was thrown back by the complexity (too complex?) of the BIOS. Was able to figure out what I needed to do.
Nice product BUT
Pros: Looks to be made of quality materials Fan and pump are quiet
Cons: Instructions are horrible. Item listing states it fits LGA1700 Socket...it did after I modified it!
Overall Review: Looks to be made of quality materials and Fan and pump are quiet..BUT item states it will fit LGA1700 socket and clearly does not....at least what I received doesn't fit. The mounting bracket bolt slots for Intel CPU has little ridges that don't allow the bolts to slide back and forth freely. After fighting with trying to get the bolts in the proper spot so they would go through the motherboard straight, I gave up and used a drill to smooth the ridges in the slots down. Only then was I able to get the bracket mounted properly. Instructions are the bare minimum. Would have been nice to state if the bracket needed to be oriented with Intel/AMD text facing the motherboard. This product has the potential for being very good five star. Just needs some tweaks to get it there.
