Pros: for the few hours it was running it seemed fine...

Cons: it died after a few hours the same day...

Overall Review: I purchased this board back in May, but installed it roughly a month ago. It ran fine for a few hours, but then died. Since newegg RMA has passed I went to Intel for warranty coverage. 3 years warranty right? They made me jump through hoops, testing with different ram, several cpu's, etc. Pretty much asked for everything from every piece of hardware attached to it, down to the serial of my cpu even. After 3 live chats I just flatly told them give me an RMA number already I know its broken. After 2 weeks Intel support sends me an email marking my RMA as CID (customer induced damage). WTH? I live chat with them again, and they had no information beyond an email marking it as CID, no reason given. Repair cost? Same as buying a brand new one! I keep asking for an answer for the CID, no answer. Pay for replacement or send back your paperweight was the end result of this chat. They even gave me a link to places where I can buy a new board... I WILL NEVER BUY THEIR BRANDED BOARDS AGAIN...
