Pros: This board is unbelievably amazing. I'm a computer tech at a local repair and custom build shop and this is my board of choice. The BIOS overclocking utility is well done as always, thank you asus/amd. The placements of the motherboard is well designed, and works wonderfully in my HAF 932 case. The speed enhancement from the SATA 6gb/s Hard Drive is a recognizable difference from my previous build. Cannot wait for more USB 3.0 support hardware to come out ;] There is a more updated BIOS on the ASUS website than what comes on the board so be sure to get that for better hardware support. I am very skeptical of the IN OS system overclocker that comes with the board but it works VERY well, my AMD 965 Phenom II x4 3.4 Ghz runs smoothly at an Overclocked 4.3 Ghz at 38C under load on stock cooling(with Artic Silver Thermal Paste).

Cons: Had some trouble with my ram being read on first boot, but I held down the ram reset button and it fixed the problem, then was able to manually set my ram to 1600. But not really a con since there is a problem with the ram doing that and the motherboard has a utility to fix it.

Pros: This is the best Video card I have ever owned, and only payed 140$ for it. Still to this day runs all my games on high/ultra, only runs on high with battlefield 3. A lot of people are complaining about it being hot, when I first got it I noticed it was hot so I took off the heatsink, applied Artic Silver and it runs REALLY cool, usually around (idle)32-45(under load). I am pretty sure that the main issue was the heatsink wasn't completely screwd down to make the best contact. Made a surprising difference.

Cons: Needs to be rebuilt to get cool temperatures, but completely worth the time. DVI-to-HDMI Signal isnt strong enough for my 50ft HDMI cable, worked for a while but now I have to move the adapter slightly around on the DVI port for it to work.

Overall Review: AMD Phenom II x4 965 3.4 GHz ASUS m4aGTD-PRO G.Skill 2x4GB 1600

Pros: Cheap, AM2+ which is now AM3 Compatible with a BIOS update, Hybrid SLI. We use this motherboard for our 'Home Systems' at my job and have only had about 10 DOA out of about 200 which seems to be better than average.

Cons: Seems to run really hot even with a lot of fans in my own computer. For some reason, not sure if its mobo or ram, but i had some trouble getting 1066 set as RAM speed. 4/5 for being pretty good, but runs hot and there's better out there for quality/$

Overall Review: Did a budget build: ASUS m3n78-vm Motherboard AMD Athlon X2 7850 Black Edition Kuma 2.8GHz Socket AM2+ Nvidia 9600 GT Superclocked G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066

Pros: Card is a beast. Build a computer for a customer @ my work set in 2-way SLI for his AutoCad, Adobe apps and Gaming and this card helps blow right through those programs.

Cons: Not a con, just a reminder your going to need a strong PSU to support this card, esp in SLI, takes a 6 and 8-pin connector. And price is not a con, worth every penny.

Overall Review: Did not buy off of NewEgg since only re-certified and combo was the only way to get, but combo deal is still good ^-^

Pros: Great Board! Hybrid SLI is good and functional. Small Board that fits in almost any case. Surprisingly the onboard sound for me is pretty good. Works great with my new AMD AM2+ 7850 and RAM for 1 exception, in other thoughts***. Great for the Price!!! Great board for making several builds, Cheap and good.

Cons: Could have spread out The PCI-E and the PCI slots a bit. Where the IDE Port is located, hard to connect Hard Drives in some cases.

Overall Review: Even with AM2+ Processor and 1066 RAM, could not get it to run 1066 for some reason? Not sure the issue atm. For those of you that do not know, Dual Channel on this board is color coded and slots are next to each other.
