Great Board
Reviewed by niki. Review Posted 05/10/2012
Very impressive looking board, that really looks well made. No installation issues whatsoever, except the new mouse driven interface for the BIOS is a little illogical and difficult to work. It's changed a lot since the previous generation of boards, so expect to have to take a little time to work it all out. Stick at it though, because it does the job. Don't forget that unless you have stock RAM you will need to set the timing and this is rather clumsy in the BIOS. It takes a while to work out how the interface works.
In particular I found the SATAIII gave a HUGE increase in speed with an SSD. Apart from that, really, not much to say. It's a very compatible, very good board.
