Out of the box, in a case, recognized every little thing new sata drive and tough drive, so numerous more than clock functions you have weeks of enjoyment playing with all the goodies this board has to offer you, the program off button is NOW a TURBO button, added zoom zoom wham whams, the onboard video card rocks, and rocks and rocks once more, ddr3 ram unlocks hidden cores, No usb three., but i currently knew it, so what, you can buy a pci adapter for possibly 15 dollars, Us tech savvy individuals can develop a computer system that rocks so much better and quicker and save hundreds of dollars :) I am entirely pleased with this board. So many characteristics its like a kid in a candy shop. asus and gigabyte mb's for the win, if you get a msi for 30 bux your system will be black screen in a year or two, spend the further and get a good motherboard like this one particular. |

This mobo was a sinch to set up, extremely straightforward to read manuel. Started up very first attempt and vever gave me a single complaint! This was my first develop also! Due to the fact its a micro ATX the sata ports get partially covered if you have as well large of a GPU, mine are nonetheless usable but are only about two millimeters from the card. Disipates heat really effectively, I've never gotten it over 105 degrees even although undertaking tasks like video editing. Also the software program that came with it was all up to date. |

Extremely very good budget motherboard. The core unlocker and auto O.C perform great. This board unlocked two cores on my phenom II 555 be. This board will automatically detect any unlockable cores. It will also set your ram to greatest stable settings automatically. O.C GPU. You can also turn your power button on the computer case into a turbo button. So if your about to do some heavy gaming or multimedia editing ect just press the button and it will give you a enhance in functionality. Runs flawless. Only has 1 PCI express two. x16 slot, so no crossfire. My budget create - asus m4a88t-mamd phenom II BE 555 - four cores unlocked safely thanks to this board.Wintec ampx 4gb ddr3 - thermaltake 600w power supplyWestern Digital caviar black 1TBCorsair Hydro H50 |

Just great operation. Right out of the box and into the case worked effectively when I figured out an insignificant challenge. This generation of tech is super rapid. I enjoy the really feel and speed of this Computer. I had to make this Computer for a person else. :(The board didn't recognize an IDE DVD drive that I wanted to use to load the OS prior to the OS getting installed. I am not holding it against the board due to the fact you can't have each driver on board but I sort of thought they would recognize a DVD drive by now. Fortunately I had a IDE CD drive lying around that worked. Not sure if it would have observed a SATA connected drive any far better. I can't seriously evaluate to other solutions on the industry at a equivalent level. I just know this 1 is awesome. Grandma's pc is now more rapidly than mine. :( |

Every thing not connected with the HDMI worked flawlessly. The Phenom II 810 deneb I applied ran super cool. It uses ATI for video/audio. The video controls work in XP for full screen but not win7. It has an overscan setting that is necessary to get full screen that is not offered in win7. The HDMI audio will only give 2.1 audio not 5.1. I know that anytime I have an ATI item(video/ hdmi on this motherbaord) I will have at least 30 hours to get the application operating, perhaps. I bought this for property theater and will have to purchase a different video card with built in audio. |

Just bought this board for my price range gaming rig. Matched it up to an AMD Phenom II x2 555 BE. Everything started up completely except for the RAM. I bought a pair of 2gb Patriot G Series Sector 5 RAM. Sadly with each sticks in i was acquiring BSOD. Need to have read the specs closer as this certain ram was tested on Intel Chipset only. Now I'm waiting for my pair of G.Skill Ripjaws, I'm hoping this will get my machine up and running. The plan bundle has a bunch of beneficial tools for an typical laptop guy like me. I don't know how OC'ing and Core Unlocking genuinely works, but this board makes it easy to do both. I haven't tried core unlock but, but I'm excited to see if my processor has excellent cores. I hope much more specialist reviews come out for this board so I can have peace of mind figuring out I produced the right selection. Flimsy input output shield. Instructions don't inform you how numerous screws come with it and how to correctly mount the Board. |

Straightforward interface to unlock cores with onboard video. Very rapid board. Fired proper up the moment I turned it on. It wasnt totally free! I paired this with the Sempron 140 to get a different core. This is my greatest develop but and by far the cheapest. AMD & Asus are always my alternatives for building a computer system! |

Can't name any due to the fact the board would not power up. DOA Sent back to Newegg. Went to Fr*'s Electronics as I wanted to comprehensive my develop over the weekend. I picked up an Asus M4A785T-M (similar) and have had no issues. Occasionally you just get a dud. |

can't tell, never use it It mentioned on the box crossfire assistance, I guess I have to had misunderstand what that meant since this mb can only hold 1 graphic card and final I check you want two graphic cards to crossfire. Now it'll price me a different 25.00 to return this product if I RMA. Possibly I should had accomplished more researches, and that's all I can said that is my fault. |

Nicely laid out board. Space to access everything even when installed. For a m-atx that is occasionally rare.I dropped a phenom ii x44 955 be onto it and 2x4 1333 ozc low freq ram. every thing was recognized correctly (timing and freq) appropriate off no require to mess with bios settings.This is preforming like a higher finish enthusiast board as a price range cost. wont be capable to make use of crossfire seriously as it lacks many expansion slots. Not seriously a con but anything to think about if your seeking at this board. Is 6 core capable so I have room to upgrade.Tons of oc software included (haven't messed with overclocking it yet).can unlock a 2 or three core cpu if your looking to save some $. |

Glad I could be the initially to overview this.This motherboard is straightforward wonderful/wonderful/pleasingpurchased this to go with my AMD 3.0GHz Quad core. booted it up with no concerns. Every little thing is running smooth and quickly. Plenty of ports for just about every thing you can assume of. Ideal amount of slots if your only going to purchase one particular graphics card. 4GB of RAM was effortlessly recognized by the MemOK! function. layout is great with nothing at all also close to some thing else giving the processor excellent airflow.Comes with a complete suite of utilities to overclock and do a bunch of other cool stuff. (Express gate is type of cool. lets you use the world wide web prior to Windows begins up in situation you forgot to print off your itinerary and dont feel like waiting an additional 30 seconds for the OS to load.) The onboard graphics is precisely that...shared memory...it may be far better if i play around with the GPU NOS overclocking or add up to 1GB shared memory but for now games like Prince of Persia only ran at about 15fps Could require to do some tweaking on the graphics chip till i get a devoted graphics card. So i wont dock the rating for that. five stars for getting a rapidly, efficient, easy to use/install motherboard with choices out the yin yang...fantastic addition to my uATX rig, certainly advocate for novice laptop or computer buyers and gamers looking for a compact technique. |

Make went good. I used Gskill ripjaws with the tall heatfins for ram and they fit excellent and did not get in the way of the heatsink or cpu fan. The express gate function is nice if you need to have to get on the internet speedily. With express gate you can be on the web inside two-three seconds immediately after pushing the power button. The manual could have been a lot far better. This was my initial construct and I wasnt confident where to plug everything, the manual didnt have newbies in mind.I also lost power even though installing win7 and this brought on the BIOS to modify where it booted from for some cause. I was obtaining the "BOOTMGR MISSING press CTRL+ALT+DEL" message. I referred to as Asus C.S. for assist and waited for 30 minutes only to be transfered and put back on hold. I gave up on C.S. and identified the fix myself on youtube in five minutes..... So minus one particular egg for sitting on hold for so long for absolutely nothing. |

plenty of room and dont let the (micro) atxx name scare u this thing is beast. 16 gb capacity ram and the 1 pci-e slot is ideal for a nvidia gts 450 and the core unlocker operates am3 socket is sick and bios is robust, very recomended none challenging to do sli, great for crossfire and amd |

Good layoutAll the O.C. capabilities and "Turbo Key" that the owner (of the Computer) will Never ever use, or recognize what they're for. Up to 16 gigs of memory (seems like overkill, but do as you like)Mem OK function is Super good, I just hope I under no circumstances have to use it. EXPRESS GATE!! This feature is LAME, and when I disabled it in the Bios, the pc wouldn't boot. I initially thought it was a hard put on problem. Following a few hours of messing with the computer system....TADA...I HAVE TO HAVE THE EXPRESS GATE ENABLED....so now each time that I start out the computer I have to appear at the E.G. screen!! DUMB! (I set it to show for 1 second, comes set at ten seconds). The E.G. difficulty really just got me all wound up! E.G. give you Internet access prior to O.S. loading, but you have to be Hardwired to your router/modem. I don't know how effectively it functions, or not, due to the fact I was hooked up wireless. It appears that "features" like EG ought to be able to be turned off W/O turning your MOBO into garbage! |

Excellent board, really user friendly. Great interface and easy to understand. I like the core unlocker tool, and the built in GPU is excellent for the cost I will most likely upgrade the GPU in the future, but this will do for now. I bought this board to ultimately upgrade to the AMD 6 core proc in the future and I like the 4 memory slots. Wonderful board for a wonderful price tag, but I don't know why I did not find an ASUS board that also had USB3! As I replaced my old board, which served me properly, I see it was also an ASUS! |
