Pros: After writing last review I started looking through page after page of other reviews on this board. Alls good up to BIOS 802 then all heck breaks loose, Cons: Went to ASUS web site,802 is last 32bit BIOS above that is 64bit BETA. My board shipped with BIOS 1001 (64bit)? from Newegg.com Bought a open box one and saved around $30. Cons: built in video would have been nice for being a htpc, but otherwise none at all. Other Thoughts: amd x2 4600, asus m2n-e mobo, 2x samsung spinpoint 500gb, 1x 250 gb wd, gigabyte 256mb 8500gt, avermedia pci-E mce tuner, nmedia 500ba htpc case, vista ultimate from Newegg.com Pros: It ran for over a year with no problems. ASUS RMA phone responsiveness and timeliness and delivery of a replacement. A great product when it was working. from Newegg.com Onboard sound is garbage... Dont even think about using a Mic... Other Thoughts: Im going to stay away from Asus products from now on.. I have been building custom gaming computers for 7+ years, using only Asus motherboards because of their "high quality..." What I discovered was that ASUS is NOT High Quality!!! from Newegg.com Well priced for those who want to upgrade but not build a super rig. Cons: Well I am having trouble w/ the updating of the drivers and I to this day am still missing audio. Asus keeps you on the phone forever and I get frustrated and give up. Its just a matter of updating the audio and its good to go though so no big. from Newegg.com Pros: Asus always makes me happy. No problems. from Newegg.com Pros: DDR2-800 Standard, heatpipe for chipset, nforce chipset, price! Cons: 1 year warranty Other Thoughts: Probably one of the best boards i have ever owned, rock solid, has just the right options, and is of Asus quality. Highly reccomended if you are going to build a mid to high end machine. from Newegg.com Pros: great when it worked. Cons: lasted one month till LAN port died. Sent back to Asus was RMA. New board showed up Doa. from Newegg.com Highly recommend. Cons: None!!! Other Thoughts: Asus M2N-E, X2 5600, 2 gig Mushkin DDR2 800, 160 raptor, 512MB 8600GT, Coolermaster C534, Rosewill 650W PSU, Win XP Pro32, Lite-on DVDRW from Newegg.com Pros: good board for price, i would def buy again if i ever had too, well worth the price Cons: none Other Thoughts: had a cheap MSI board, single core AMD 3000 with 1 gb of ram and upgraded to the ASUS M2N-E, dual-core AMD 6000 with 2 gb of ram from Newegg.com
