Pros: Too many to name - a *HIGHLY* overcloking-friendly BIOS, more USB ports than I can find a use for, and full support for SATA-II (3.0GB)... Includes all the rounded cables you need, and comes with a nice jumper tool for adjusting the SLI jumpers onboard.

Cons: Requires some thought when it comes to the BIOS. It did not recognize the optimal settings for my chips (memory and CPU) and required some tweaking in order for me to get the listed performance on some of the parts.

Overall Review: Make sure you keep the wiring in your system clear - the chipset gets hot in a hurry and without proper air you'll find yourself with a locked-up system. This board was made for the overclocker in mind and is NOT an entry-level motherboard. If you're not planning on overclocking I would suggest looking elsewhere.

Pros: This is a great piece of hardware for intermediate computer users. I've had it over 9 months now, and I haven't had one crash, one bad boot, one bluescreen (That wasn't software based) It's chipset is SUPER stable and even if you don't want to use it for SLI, it's still a fantastic choice. I've never used it for SLI but I'm still extremely impressed on it's performance.

Cons: This board DOES require lots of power. I recomdend the OCZ Powerstream to provide the necessary juice to keep this board super-stable. Remember to plug in ALL power connections for max stability, including the disk drive power plugin.

Pros: Great board for overclocking, lots of advanced settings in the bios.

Cons: The PCIE slots are a little close together, I believe they are further apart in the expert version of this board.

Overall Review: Mine shipped with the latest bios, I didn't need to update to support dual core.

Pros: Board is working great. Check the other reviews - this is a full-featured board with some advanced settings. If this is your first system you will have your hands full. Installed with Corsair XMS 2GB (2x1GB) DDR 400 (2-3-3-6) and AMD X2 4200+ and 74Gb WD Raptor as system drive. Default settings worked without a hitch. Windows XP had a problem recognizing BIOS as ACPI compliant (already had latest BIOS version: 6/23/2005) Manually assigning ACPI Multiprocessor worked fine.

Cons: Although I plan to switch to a Creative X-Fi later (because I can/want to), the daughter card for the Karajan audio module has all connectors at the rear of the board. Your front headphone/mic connections need to be long enough to reach the back of the board. I had to engineer a slight reroute on an Antec Super Lanboy case.

Overall Review: My first DFI board (everything previously had been great experiences with Asus or Shuttle). Trying DFI for O/C functions and so far, I'd buy DFI again.

Comments: This board is outstanding, got it for 2 7800 GTX's in SLI and overclocking capabilities. The bios gives u every available tweaking option. I have mushkin redline ram running at 3.5volts. LOVE THE BOARD, only gripe is that the northbridge fan is right next to the first PCI-E slot and you can never change it out for something bigger cuz the video card blocks it. other than that this board pwNZ

Comments: If you plan on buying this board I can only advise you to wait until Newegg.com receives its stock of the new DFI Lanparty NF4 UT SLI-DR Expert boards. If it werent for this board frying multiple memory modules at less than default rated voltages I would give it 5 stars. This board is plagued with power delivery issues that will destroy your RAM as a serious overclocker. The 5v jumper setting for DIMM slots delivers dirty power, is responsible for frying countless DIMM's, and the board has serious issues with compatibility across severalRAM vendors, including Corsair, and an OCZ VX cold boot issue. The Expert is supposed to correct all these issues.

Comments: I must say that aside from this boards large amount of hype and useful overclocking features, it seriously falls short in the realm of documentation and ease of use (I understand not everyone has issues on first boot, but those who do better be prepared to dig around on the net, alot). The choice to put so many features on as jumper activated is also a little questionable. Debugging this board has been all but straight-forward and the information provided is EXTREMELY sparse. Having to go jumper to jumper to make sure everything is right is painful, compared to having to skim a bios screen. 70% of the manual contains information on setting jumpers, plug locations, and maybe a couple paragraphs worth of jargon. The audio modules included on this board make no sense, if your going to have onboard sound, whats the point of including 2 half-featured modules for output, instead of one good one? That being said, I did get the board running, and I'm sure its great for overclocking, but not all people need this immense, poorly documented and disorganized feature set. I don't plan on returning the board but I hope that this comment is useful for people like me who have built systems in the past, I think there are much better choices out there for people that dont OC. If you plan on reading the manual, get a differnt board, thats all, I understand this is an overclocking board but I want to make sure people like me are warned, the people I know recommend it, not understanding that I didnt care about over half the features this board provides. Be warned... it does preform well, but if your not an enthusiast look elsewhere.

Pros: Highly customizable; nice layout; lots of ports; lots of cables; nice colors; nice LED's; reset and power off switch on mobo. Obviously, it covers the major ones, I was just trying to highlight the small but important things. It excels everywhere (except for documentation on BIOS settings as someone mentioned earlier.)

Cons: No BIOS documentation (not really a big deal to me.)

Overall Review: I love DFI. I love NewEgg.
