Pros: Used this board today to build a system for a friend. Install when super smoothly besides a bad harddrive, and drivers installed without a single hitch. I just downloaded all of the packages available off intel's site for this board, instead of the included CD.

Cons: None

Overall Review: Even though this board has integrated video, it works perfectly with a PCI-Express video card. I used a 7900GS in this sytem, and with the e6300 cpu, scored a 4100 on 3dmark06. Perfect afordable system for my friend.

Pros: Installation was a CINCH! No problems with operation. Solid board. SATA and FSB are nice and fast. Four USB ports on the back was a good addition for me, my last board only had two!

Cons: Sometimes I get so excited about my new computer it makes it difficult for me to perform the boring day to day tasks.

Overall Review: I don't use the onboard video, so I cannot comment on it!

Pros: This is a simple motherboard, yes the instructions are lacking, but that's why you are building rather than buying one. You have some basic understanding of computers. My setup is the DG965RY mobo, with a C2-Dou Intel proc running @ 1.8mhz, plus a GForce7600. I purchased a 430watt pwr supply, and a better heat sink. In hindsight I think the heat sink provided would work fine, but would recommend getting a new powers-supply. There is a memory issue, don't by the high performance memory that over clocker’s like, for it needs to run @2.2v, this board has no adjustment to turn up the voltage. The BOIS says it's running ~1.95v. I installed Crucial memory #CT12864AA667 x2 for a total of 2gig. I also put a new SATA HD in this system, runs great. I have been running WOW and it screams! Video is very seamless, I have yet to bog this thing down and easily toggles back & forth between Windows XP while playing the game. Pretty much a drop in, & drive. If you think there are memory issues use Mem

Cons: Not much for troubleshooting

Pros: Good board no memory problems with 1.8 volt mem. Video works well.

Cons: Had heat problems with north bridge being very close to video card. card up to 76c with stock cooling. added a zalman cooler to card and processor and runs cool now.

Overall Review: Built 2 computers with this mb and have had no issues but no manual and heat problem. There is good manufacturer support online.

Pros: It's intel, the price is right, it can handle some awesome memory

Cons: no SATA RAID support. I had to buy an extra card.

Overall Review: Can't go wrong here, it's probably the best value mobo out there, but be careful if you want to fire up 2 WD Raptors, as I did

Pros: Definitly a great board; fast, and easy to install. I have had no problems with this board at all...

Cons: Haven't found any.

Overall Review: Ordered this board for a client and it is running very sturdy. Definitly going to use it again for future customers.

Pros: Excellent Mobo for a basic home office/internet machine. Onboard graphics saves having to buy a separate card. Build went very smoothly. 800mhz FSB matches perfectly with Allendale CPU, and inexpensive PC2-6400 ram.

Cons: Intel chipset doesn't support SLI if ever desired in the future. But this rig wasn't built with gaming in mind anyway.

Overall Review: Not an overclocker. Check the memory timings. Supports only 5-5-5-12 @ 1.8V. I used M***kin 9996527 with no problems. This is plenty fast for a home office rig.

Pros: Solid performance and easy to install. GMA X3000 runs Vista AERO (glass) just fine (not a gamer). Failed memory tweaks gracefully failed on bootup and automatically rebooted to allow me to reenter the BIOS to change them.

Cons: Lacks RAID and real overclocking features. My configuration 2.4Ghz Core 2Duo, 2GB Mushkin DDR2-800 RAM, this board, and a seagate SATA drive ... everything got 5.x ratings on the M$ experience index EXCEPT for the graphics (GMA X3000) got 3.x range values. For development purposes, this is still plenty fast.

Overall Review: Make sure you match the memory requirements (voltage and timing).
