Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - There are better options.
Short version: Intel treats its motherboards as reference designs for other vendors to polish into real products. It shows.

The BIOS has few options for tweaking, and is unusually slow to detect drives on boot. It takes more than half a minute to POST even with the "quick post" enabled.

This board will only accept 1.8v RAM modules. Unlike other boards, there's no way to increase the memory voltage or fine tune the timing to accommodate some modules.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Don't Do it. Get an ASUS
This is the fifth computer I've built and the first and last with an Intel board. This is what I had to do to get XP installed. All of this was learned the hard way doing install after re-install after re-install.

1. Create a "slipstream" XP installation disk with Raid drivers so windows can find the hard disk and video drivers.
2. Install with no more than one gig of memory to avoid freeze during installation.
3. Disable LAN during installation to avoid freeze.
4. ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Core 2 Quad Motherboard from Intel that enforces big changes.
This is quite a compact board and an essential for Core 2 Quad processors like the almighty Q6600. However this board has new standards that many users may find hard to agree with. The first is that it forces you to drop PS/2 connections (unless you get adapters) and the 3.5" Floppy is officially extinct with it. While it can handle IDE this is really built for SATA drives. So quite simply if you have already found your 3.5" Floppy disks gathering dust and your PS/2 connecting hardware in disuse and ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Stable no-frills Performance
I have had this board running every day for over 9 months now (Enermax 720W, E6850, Mushkin DDR2-800, evga 8800GTX, Vista Premium 64, SATA RAID) and it's a real nice setup. Went together well. No overclocking, no major hassles. Sometimes I wish I had bought the D975BX2 instead so I could crank up my CPU. But that's just when I play Crysis ;)

The SATA driver at Vista install is a pain. The driver comes on floppy, and the mobo has no legacy floppy support. If they put drivers on a CD it would ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Raid driver supplied on floppy for a board with NO floppy port
If you are building a system, don't get this board if you are planning to use XP (any flavor) or need/want a floppy drive on the system. Give me a break Intel! This board doesn't support such ancient technology as a floppy disk drive!! What I found really funny is that the board comes with the raid drivers supplied on a floppy. Intel made my system build a little more difficult. 12 USB ports is nice, guess I'll be using a lot a them!
