Strengths: none

Weaknesses: Posting problems

Summary: I have suffered posting problems on almost a daily basis with this board. I have had the whole system into my vendor for service and after he tried to fix the posting problems, I am back to square one. They replaced the board and the new one is not any better. I would NOT recomend this board to anyone, and will more than likely scrap it soon.

Strengths: looks nice

Weaknesses: Bad performace

Summary: Im not sure if the motherboard I got is defective or not, but the sound on it is just horrible. When I installed my sound drivers, it would just emite a high pitch noise that was very annoying. mute windows, still had it. I had to put in an old Creative Labs sound card to get rid of the problem, but I lost my front headphone port to do that. Also, the speed of my motherboard just doesnt seem that fast, even after I flashed the BIOS to the latest version. I would Prefer MSI motherboards over Asus, I know 3 people who have MSI motherboards, and they have no problems, in fact, their performace is faster, and their sound is terrific, while im stuck with this piece of crap. next motherboard I get will not be an ASUS, im going with MSI.
