Very slow shipping. Its taking for ever go get here. This is what amazon mean by “free shipment”. Never again. I ordered on Nov. 14. My package arrive on Nov. 23 by USPS. The package coming from Lexington, KY. I live in Houston, Tx. It dont take that long for a package to get here. Very, Very Upset. First time using amazon. The item is good, but the free shimpment is terrible. No correct tracking information what so ever. It doesnt give you the correct location. I dont know where my package is right now. All I know it left Lexington, KY. It somewhere in the US. I cant track it.

I got this mb for my rig with an AMD Phenom II X2 550. Was able to unlock 2 cores on the AMD
and overclocked it by 5% (3.255 Ghz) with stock heatsink and fan. Graphics are great for movies and casual gaming with the onboard HD 4200 GPU.
A surprise, Asus mentions the Southbridge as SB710 for the mb, but mine came with SB750.

Not much more to say….I have built many units and to date this is the best motherboard I have used for the price. There are many more out there, much more expensive with many less features. BOTTOM LINT: BUY THIS ONE!!!

Pros: Asus has made another solid product with this motherboard: it is stylish, functional, and will give you a bang for your buck for the performance. It has everything you need if you are building a budget computer, office computer, or gaming rig.
Cons: The rear I/O panel is of cheap quality and it was difficult to push the motherboard through it, Asus could’ve put a better quality I/O panel. Furthermore, if you plan to install a higher end video card, it barley fits over one of the heatsinks of the motherboard (they do touch but it doesn’t cause any friction or damage). The placement of the SATA sockets are also in a bad position as once again if you plan to use a higher end video card the sockets are very close to the card making it hard to install the SATA wires. I had to manage the cables properly in order for them to fit and not have the SATA wires and video card get in each other’s way.
Other Thoughts: First one I received was physically damaged as the hinge on the back of the gray pcie slot was snapped so make sure you inspect your product upon arrival. Amazon was great and processed another shipment for me right away with next day shipping. They didn’t even require me to send back the damaged motherboard until after I received the replacement. The replacement board posted on the first try and I have not experienced any BSOD, freezing, or random restarts since I completed my build (over 1 month).

This was my first computer build and I selected this board for the sideport graphics memory and other features. Tons of plugs and great documentation. No issues at all with the install, which was fairly idiot-proof. I’d buy this board again.
