Great budget board
review by: The tight fisted PC maker rating:
customer rating
operating system: Windows XP

Just got this today and I am impressed. Used it with an Intel Q8200 and a GeForce 8800GT, it booted first time.



BIOS seems to have overclocking options but that's not my thing anyway so I can't comment how good it would be.



Runs games smooth very big improvement on AMD64x2 4600. This board makes the basis of very capable budget gaming PC.



Only negative I can think of is that if you are planning on using old IDE hard drives or CD it only seems to accept one even thought the cable supplied fits two. Most people will be using SATA so should be no problem.

Very good overclocking.

Fully stable with E4300(1.8GHz)@ 3.0GHz/ 1.45V and ancient Corsair XMS2 PC-5300 @ 800MHz/2.1V. I didn't try more.

I recommend.
