Comments: This is a good board. Not sure if this is everyone's case but my multiplier is locked at 11 i believe, wish i could toy more with that. This was my first build and no complaints on the motherbaords part. It has blue screened on me before but that was my fault for tinkering. Other than that it has never crashed on me once and I've had this for about three months now. One problem I had is the round cable that it came with broke on me but that was most likely my fault. If your still running AGP and you want something with modest but not high end overclocking capabilities then this is a nice one to go towards.

Comments: Pros: Great BIOS, Fast, stable, and a great layout on the board. Lots of cables and nice instructions. The stickers covering the pin arrays for my multiple devices was a nice touch. Cons: OOB experience is something to be desired, cables and such were just in the box loose. Promise SATA Raid controller kept crashing my Windows install. Monitoring software keeps telling me my CPU is running at around 47-52c and I know this is not the case, HSF is cool to the touch. Used Artic silver in place of the thermal pad it came with. From what I read this is common with VIA boards. Ill test it with Sandra Suite tonight to see if it reports differently. Overall AWESOME board for the price. MUCH more stable than my older Nforce2 board. And of course NewEgg rocks! Ordered it Tuesday, was at my place Wednesday afternoon!

Pros: its fast, compared to the asus a8v deluxe i had, ok same hardware exept the motherboard the asus got 65,056 on aqua mark whit this i get 70,000-72,000 stock no overclocking this board is more stable as well

Cons: the temp moniter isnt the best its off by atleast 10 degrees

Overall Review: got it when i rma the asus this is a good alturitive to the a8v

Comments: Pros: Comes with almost everything you need. Cons: BIOS appears to be highly unstable. Attempted BIOS upgrade (to deal with instability) rendered board inoperable - had to RMA. Uncharacteristically, NewEgg has been slow to react and I've been without a computer at home for nearly three weeks now. Very disappointed in both board and RMA process. Contacted manufacturer - they blew me off. Won't use this brand again.

Pros: Price, Stability, Compatibility, Speed, Features, the list can go on and on.

Cons: I haven't run into any to be honest.

Overall Review: I have owned this board since May, and it has always been rock solid. Hasn't let me down once yet. There are tons of integrated goodies as well!

Comments: This board is great! It came with the bios revision 1.4. I read many reviews about this board and discovered that the pci/agp lock was not working correctly,which caused instability durring overclocking.Yea I was bummed,but I decided to flah the bios to the latest revision 1.6 and man did it opened up the overclocking potintial! Here are my specs. Athlon 4000+sandiego 2.4 Soltek K8Tpro 1 GB of Gigaram PC 4200 ATI X800 xt-pe I turned the LT/HT bus down to 800 from 1000 ,and the cpu multiplier down to 11 from 12. I then raised the fsb up to 236 MHZ.CPU is now running at 2.6 ,and the htt is at 944 mhz. My ram is ddr 500,so I still have lots of headroom yet,but I want to get a better heatsink/fan before I push it too much higher. You cannot get the htt bus above 1000 or the thing crashes. I think the MOBO reports wrong CPU temps,which has been brought up before in the reviews. The Motherboard works great,and newegg rocks!

Pros: Great board, plenty of room for RAM upgrades, AGP slot for those of us not quite willing to shell out even more for a PCI-E. Audio is nice for onboard, and the Gb ethernet capability is a nice plus. was a snap to setup, just a nice all around board for a decent price. works fine with my Athlon 64 3700+

Cons: I apparently got a faulty board, if I flashed the bios, the machine would no longer start, and after 3 weeks, the board became unstable, and I hade to jumper it every 24hrs to avoid lockups. It reported my DDR400 as being DDR333 under dual channel. (I never got around to trying them individualy) Also, heat sensors where only off by abit... 15C O.o I RMAed the board, should get it back soon, and Im hoping most of these problems will be gone.

Pros: very good overclocker but have to update bios to verison 1.6 came with 1.4. had problems overclocking my amd 64 4000 clawhammer..tech support very good had problem flashing bios . e-mailed tech support and responded within one day.make sure you flash bios to recent to open up board for overclocking.

Cons: wish northbridge chip had a fan instead of passive heatsink.

Overall Review: first time brought this brand wish they had a sli board to.would recommend this brand have had msi, and abit boards.
