hmm it´s a flawless board, the only thing i don´t like about it is that i´m not able to reach a FSB higher than 114 mhz ( good ol´ KT133). it is rock stable, got tremendous ram performance, not to mention the bios-overclockability( SoftMenu III) . i also like the board layout. atx connector in tha right place, 4 fan headers, in my opinion a good placement of the ide controllers ( if ya gonna use a ATA100 hdd, ya gotta use the highpoint raid controller cause the via 686 southbridge only supports ata66). if ya used to handling an abit or especially VIA board ( like 4in1 stuff ....) you gonna luv it too i think
