Pros: Easy install, Bios is easy enough to work with. Board is a solid build. from Newegg.com Lots of slots and great features. Posted first time. EVGA has a great rep and products to back it up imo Cons: Downloading the Chipset driver made my PC freeze but it worked after reset. Didn't deduct any eggs since I didn't investigate the culprit. from Newegg.com DOA. Other Thoughts: Nothing like spending a few hours building your dream system and then the system won't boot. You read all the forums, all the FAQs, and even call the tech support just to learn your board is DOA and you have to tear down your system and send the board back and wait... and wait.... from Newegg.com Pros: Very good setup, not too tight. LOADS of features for a very good price. E-LEET utility to VERY useful!Perfect amount of room for a 1366 screw mount if you want to upgrade your CPU heatsink. EVGA ROCKS! from Newegg.com Pros: I am just thankful that there is a company like EVGA around that is this professional with the quality of the parts they send and the customer service that is there when you need it 24/7. I had a nForce 780i before this board and I really have been happy with them and I have been building systems for years and this is the greatest quality in motherboards and customer service I have ever seen. from Newegg.com Pros: great board, great performance, great price Cons: voltage regulators get kinda hot (~65 degrees Celsius) with a i7 920 only overclocked to 3.4 though still well within operating capacity Other Thoughts: great build and possible to get vanilla os x installed with a bit of work! from Newegg.com Pros: This board has a large number of USB ports, SATA ports, and DIMM slots, which makes expandability a real possibility. The board felt fairly sturdy and it comes with a padded I/O Panel which ensures a safe and secure seat of the motherboard. from Newegg.com Pros: works great right out of the box. fast with the i7 920 and dominator mem Cons: none so far Other Thoughts: will be getting more evga. great company from Newegg.com Also has a temp gauge on the board, nicely done. The BIOS on this machine is very robust and gives you a lot of control over a lot of features which is important for overclocking. The board let me overclock my i7 920 to 3.8ghz on air without breaking even a little sweat. Cons: The voltage regulator is cooled by a passive heatsink that is designed to use air flow from the stock i7 cooler. from Newegg.com Pros: "When using 2 Graphic Cards in PCI-E Slots: 1 and 3, a speed of x16/x16 will be used" Cons: "When using 3 Graphic Cards in PCI-E Slots 1,3, and 5 a speed of x16/x8/x8 will be used." Caveat emptor if you're planning on running 3-way SLI. from Newegg.com
