1 out of 5 stars Absolutely the worst mobo ever made! No doubt.   April 10, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This mobo has a major flaw where you can NOT occupy the A slots with certain memory (brands). I bought 8GB of RAM (OCZ2VU8004GK) and can not use all of it. Go figure which RAM brand works and doesn't. I updated to the latest BIOS, which promised more memory compatibility. NOT! Also, one of the heat sinks gets boiling hot, cannot touch - you will burn your fingers. Besides all that, out of 10 reboots, 2 of them get passed the BIOS. I bought this mobo to install OSx86 on it. As of April 10th, you will not get this mobo+Q6600 working with OSx86! VERY disappointed. I should have bought a Mac.


4 out of 5 stars GOOD MOBO but !! have CONFLICT with OCZ REAPER   March 31, 2008

(SPANISH)
yo compre esta tarjeta madre para mi amigo y el compro la semana pasada 2gb de OCZ REAPER 800mhz pero la pc no arranca , yo intente usarlas con mi computadora y arranco normal, no es problema de memoria o de la tarjeta madre solo un conflicto y compatibilidad asi que no mezclen estos 2 articulos, si no tienen este problema, la tarjeta madre puede ser la mejor ! ASUS es lo mejorcito !



4 out of 5 stars Excellent motherboard for the money   February 6, 2008
I got this motherboard for my new mob, I already got a Gigabyte DQ6.
My gigabyte is much better of course but it costs almost double, anyway if you're not a pipe cooling fan this one will be okay.
Very good overclocker and very good support for Nvidia based graphic cards, but SLI will be only on 8x but I think there's no real difference in performance.
I installed it and it was running from the first time, very easy to configure and install drivers.
Would definitely recommand this motherboard.



3 out of 5 stars This isn't for Dual Graphics Cards, It only supports 2 cards at 8x each not 16x each.   January 25, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The board is great for one graphics card, and it supports one card at 16x. I am using an 8800gts and they work well together. The problem was when I found out this board only supports dual graphics cards at 8x each for a max of 16x. I know that the next step above this board is about $40 more and it can support dual graphics cards at 16x each.

--I would rate it a 5 if for single card, but I can't believe they would even make a dual graphics card option with less than 16x each because you know anyone doing that will want the best. :)

I am not going to go that far, and if I was I would simply get a new Mobo along with the second card.

-Good luck to ya all



4 out of 5 stars Good Board; Beware of low latency Ram   January 16, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Overall this is a good value board. As a new system builder I had no problem getting this board installed and running. My only problem came with memory compatibility. After several days of suffering through blue screens that prevented me from even getting a clean Windows install I switched out the pair of Corsair 2GB 240 DIMM non-ECC DDR2 RAM (TWIN2X2048-6400C4) Dimms with some plain jane Kingston PC6400's and everything ran smoothly the first time. I talked to one of the guys at frys and he indicated that he had talked to at least one other person who had the exact same problem with low-latency ram on this motherboard.
