Pros: Have had no problems setting up board with Intel E6750 processor and Geil Ultra ddr2 800mhz memory 2X1GB (the orange heatspeaders). It fired up perfectly, although timings were 5-5-5-12. That was easily fixed in the bios. I loaded Windows XP SP2 in 14 minutes on raid 0 harddrives, WD 160GB 8mb cache.The onboard video is not bad for everyday things but it is not for hard gaming.Includes esata bracket which worked well. The onboard audio does not sound bad either. Front panel audio connections on my Cooler Master Glite case hooked up easily to the onboard audio. I am also using sata optical drives by lite-on. One is lightscribe dvd burner and the other is a dvd rom drive. They seem to be alot faster than the ide optical drives. 4 usb ports on back panel and 4 usb headers =12 ports! System runs very cool, cpu at 71 degrees and the case at 100 degrees after 3 hours of being used. Using intel cpu cooler and antec 550 watt power supply with no problems.
Cons: No Cons yet!
Overall Review: It would have been nice for gigabyte to include a 1394/usb header as well to use some of the internal ports. Newegg delivered fast as always. Great job Newegg!!
