Pros: I just turned out the lights over my workbench and I had to write to say that this board is worth looking at. I was shy myself because of the lack of reviews but I like exploring so I'm in. So far I haven't been disappointed. Is the board perfect ? Not for this price. If you want perfection, expect to fork up $200 plus big ones. This is a good case for a small build where quality is job one.
Cons: The manual, could be better. There are several instances with pins protruding beyond the plastic guides, for example the USB 3.0 header. Gentlemen, if you make the pins protrude from the receptacle, we end up aligning the pins first and then contacting the receptacle when in fact the whole purpose of the receptacle is to GUIDE and ALIGN our plug over the pins so we don't bend any. Please spend an extra 10th of a penny and make those plastic guides capable of doing their job so we don't feel obligated to bend pins on our shiny new motherboards and get all up in your faces and all that.
Overall Review: I wasn't building this system for a gamer, it's just an old time interweb browser and email workstation. I don't know that the owner will ever use the Eco settings but it's a nice little feature in lieu of overclocking. Don't be shy, there's a review now, so belly up to the bar boys and girls and give this one a try. If I have any problems I'll update this review accordingly.
