Okay not a top line board for gaming, but a very very good board none the less. And with the latest bios, it supports my CPU, which is one of the more problematic CPUs in terms of support. I am running a Xeon E5-2658 V3, which has 12 cores/24 threads and runs @ 2.2GHz/2.5GHz/2.9GHz. It's a beast but it is one of the more unusual Xeons and there was no official support for it on any consumer board. But I did see video of it working with this board, and I can now confirm that it absolutely does work. I'm trying this on the setup. And it works really well. I ran the render that AMD put out to show off their new Ryzen chip. And my 2.2GHz 12 core Xeon matched the Ryzen and the i7-6900K, coming in at 36 seconds. I'll take that any day. Board quality was excellent. Well packaged, good accessories pack, and a nice color scheme. The finish on the board is really nice. I love the little things like the OC Genie, power and reset buttons on the board, and the CPU temp readout on the 2 digit diagnostics led when the system is up and running. I can't really find fault with anything, but I am not a gamer, nor do I need all the latest bells and whistles. All I can say is if this board has the features you want, go for it. It is a great value and a great board. And with all the features it has, I can't imagine it actually lacking something you *need* in a board. Want,well that's a whole other thing, but need ... so far the only thing it hasn't done is get me a beer. :-)Read full review

Worked exactly as expected. No bent pins. Very clean for a used board as well.

This is a great motherboard that comes with solid features and your basic features all included. The ooooonly issue I have with it, is it is known to sometimes be the one to be RMA'd for some dead RAM slots. You can check newegg etc for reviews with that said. Heck that is what I experienced with my first board, but I got a new one off ebay cause it is truly a solid board. I don't mean to scare off anyone with that statement about the dead RAM slots, I just feel like I should make that known. Also make sure you follow the manual for proper ram placement unless you are unaware and you "think" you have broken RAM slots. You can just get it RMA'd like any other motherboard. If the board was bad, I wouldn't have bought another one like I've done recently. Great board, really. Been working flawlessly ever since I got it while I live stream and game etc. :)Read full review
