Great little motherboard
operating system:
Windows VistaWell not really much to say about it. Integrated graphics runs Aero flawlessly, scores 3.4 on experience index. Lots of overclocking features in the BIOS. Highly recommended!
Great Performer with Windows 7 64-bit
operating system:
OtherRuning with and Athlon X2 250 Dual Core 3GHz, 4GB RAM and Samsung F1 750GB drive, Windows 7 installed flawlesly and runs like a dream. Fully featured motherboard - very stable - it flies. Superb value for money for an AM2+/AM3 board.
Great ASUS product
operating system:
Windows VistaI bought this MB about a month ago. I was a little disapointed with UPS who delivered my order with the shipping box quite damaged.
My order included this motherboard. CPU, ram etc.
Installation of the MB was easy and the manual was very easy to understand. All my components were put into an existing case i had.
I am currenly using the HDMI port connected into my main TV and can say that vista works great. One thing i stongly recommend is to install as much memory as you can afford. I currently have 3Gig in my system and the OS performance is great. I have this weekend tried Win7 on this board and it boots amazingly fast.
Very pleased with this buy.
And ebuyer you need to have a word with your courier service as this is the 2nd order with a damaged box.
The product defenatly deserves 5 star
Great motherboard with HDMI 1080p graphics
operating system:
Windows 7This is a great motherboard which forms part of my Windows 7 media PC. HDMI 1080p graphics and high def sound as standard - outstatnding value.
Initially I had some HDMI issues with my Panasonic plasma which were resolved by:
1. Upgrading to a good HDMI cable (1m IXOS for about £7).
2. Ensure TV is switched to correct HDMI port as pc boots.
3. Use latest ATI catalyst drivers from AMD website.
very sturdy and powerfull
operating system:
Windows 7having used this motherbord for a bit now im very please with the buy its sturdy motherboard and a definate recoment the bios is simple to use and with support for 1200mhz ram its amazing speeds for ddr2 the pci-e 2.0 works amazing with my brand spanking new hd5770 :D windows 7 is getting bashed with it but overall this is a amazing motherboard
-if u got graphics disable onboard there useless-
4 stars because onboard graphics could be so much better
