Will buy again if build new system, all features needed for entertainment desktop. if needed can install higher end video card for gaming use. Not compatible with Patriot Ram, When post, system turns on and off every 2 seconds, finally realize that ram not compatible, read the manual find out that ram bought not is the compatible list, Replace with another pair of Kingston Ram, everyting works fine.

Built up my sytem with 16 gigs corsair dominator, I7 3770, 120 ssd, and a 570gtx hd. I can play skyrim almost maxed out. I installed windows 8 and it runs very fast and smooth. The only thing I don't really get is some of the driver updates and firmware seem to be incompatible. I stopped trying, but I haven't noticed any problems.

Comment:
This board was easy to install, and seems to have all the features my customer wanted. I did very little overclocking with it, but I was able to get the i5 2500k stable at 4.2ghz. All in all I would use this again for a budget build that might want overclocking.

Comment:
Overall an excellent board, easy to setup and overclock. Definitely recommend this board to people starting to get into building.

Comment:
Great high quality asus mobo that I picked up for 115$. No complaints so far. I recommend to anyone building on a little bit of a budget bit still want a high quality computer.

Comment:
overall a really good motherboard, it has all the feature that I need.

Comment:
A very good motherboard for most users, but definitely not quite enough for extreme enthusiasts. There is enough PCIe for Crossfire/SLI, but doing that will cost you access to all the other PCI slots. Other than that, I think this motherboard is really solid and price-effective.

Comment:
This is a good valued motherboard. I am still experimenting with the overclocking but so far i am very happy with this choice.There was one problem during the first boot where i had installed 2x 4gig of rams in the blue slots and the system would shut down after 5 seconds. The system finaly booted after installing one stick in the secondary slots and the bios indicated that it used the rams with 1.65volts instead of 1.5volts.Everything worked fine after we changed that setting.

Comment:
installed i5 on this along with 8gb of ram for a friend it's doing extremely well, very nice board and speed along with intel proc

Whenever you want to buy a motherboard, consider ASUS first! They are just so good at making motherboards.Just that remember that it only has 1 CPU fan port and 3 CHASIS fan ports. If you have more fans, you can only connect them directly to the power supply.

Comment:
I never regret buying Asus. Absolutely zero problems with this motherboard. The drivers installed with no issues and the BIOS interface is great. I never regret going with Asus.

Comment:
ASUS boards have been great to me and this one is no different. Great price for what you get. Recommend to anyone looking for a solid mid level comp.

Comment:
Some issues with the back plating with the case I bought but all Is well.. Great MOBO overall and would recommend It! ASUS Is probably my most liked brand In the computer industry!

Comment:
I'm a big fan of ASUS mobos and this one does nothing to make me change my mind. Love the UEFI BIOS. Getting my new system assembled and running was a breeze. Flashing BIOS is so simple. Dare I say foolproof? Decent over clocking features but more expensive boards are better suited to serious over clocking.

Comment:
Great board for the price, it does everything I need it to do. The bios is very easy to navigate and overclock with.

Comment:
Got it during sale $100(AR)Easy install, so far everything works out of the box.Back plate could've been better,Will update  after few more weeks of usage

I overclocked my i5-3570K to 4.4GHz and it runs stable. Also, this motherboard is black (actually brown-ish) but it does its job well.

Comment:
I used to have an Asus P5EWS-Pro and I must admit, I liked my older one better.There is a huge lack of SATA3 ports. Not much features on the back panel. The design looks much cheaper than my older one(my old one had huge copper heat syncs).On the good sides, it's a pretty cheap mobo and you get the Z77 chipset so you can put the all new ivy bridge processors like the i5 3570k or 3770k.All in all, it's a good mobo, but you should save a bit and get a PRO version.

Comment:
This Mobo have a lot of feature for this price and every feature that I've tried is working well except for the vlan support in Windows with the ASUS drivers. Using Realtek driver correct this issue. Would recommend it for low budget that want good mobo with great feature.

Comment:
got it for ~$125 with $20 MIRit has some PCI slots!

Comment:
Always build my computers with ASUS boards, and this one is no different. Less features than the higher-end and gaming boards but for the price, it's completely worth it. Fantastic board for a mid-end computer.

Comment:
if don't want crossfire or sli.you don't need this board and get cheaper one with no dual pcie 3.0

Comment:
This board has a lot of features for the price. Back panel digital audio and plenty of USB 3.0 ports is great. All the video output bases are covered. With all the great back panel IO it's unfortunate there is no eSata port, but the USB 3.0 ports make that not much of an issue.The graphical BIOS inteface is quite nice. The overclocking/tweaking options look quite good.
