Pros: I used this for my first rig I've ever built myself and everything went extremely smoothly. Instructions were clear and easy to follow. Has all the features of much more expensive boards - SATA III, USB 3.0. Excellent design and feels sturdy. Recognized all my components on the first try including 12GB G.Skill RAM DDR3 1333 MHZ even though it wasn't in the specs. Had two SATA III cables and two SATA II cables, so I won't need any more of those. Has really nice features for board performance, fan speed, case temps. Maybe that is standard, but these were really nice and easy to use. Just an excellent experience with the this MOBO!

Cons: I think one of the reasons this board is a little cheaper is because it has only two graphics expansion slots. Not a problem for me as I'll probably buy a newer GPU before I'd get a third to put in Crossfire etc. Also, with wide video cards, the PCI slots get a little cramped. It fit my Sapphire Radeon 5770 just fine, but if you need a lot of expansion slots, might want to look elsewhere.

Overall Review: My build: i7-930 Asus Sabertooth x58 MOBO 12 GB (4x 3GB) G.Skill DDR3 1333 MHz Sapphire Radeon HD 5770 1 GB WD 1 TB Caviar Black SATA III HDD Asus 24X DVD-RW Corsair 650TX PSU Cooler Master Centurion 590

Pros: The thing works. For the most part, it stays out of the way which is where these things should be.

Cons: Tries to sell me an extension of my contract 2 months into a 12 month lease? Sorry, but that is ridiculous. Not to mention, the extension price is outrageously high compared to what you can get a new version retail. If you install it, and then have to reinstall it on the same computer for whatever reason, it views that as two users. That is just wrong. Annoyingly always asks if World of Warcraft Downloader can open - even after I say it is "Always Allowed".

Overall Review: None.

Pros: 8 cores and screaming performance

Cons: None

Pros: Quiet Great performance

Cons: None

Cons: None really
