Introduction

As an intro and sort of disclaimer, I would like to say that I "prefer" Asus boards.

I also like boards with "Intel" chipsets... Why, you ask?

First off, I have been running Asus motherboards as far back as I can remember. They are generally of high quality and very stable, even in the most rigorous of environments. I am also under the impression that Intel should know best how to interface their processors to the other devices you may decide to install on a mother board. Since the chipset is the heart of the system (the CPU being the "brain"), I feel that Intel has one up on other companies in the chipset arena. After all of that is said and done, I am not "slamming" this motherboard and trying to discount the stability of Asus and VIA's endeavor! Mainly because I really like this board and the potential that it offers to people at a relatively LOW price!

The purpose of this?

I am getting some of this information (and misinformation) down because I have recently received numerous E-Mails about this board from people either having problems or just asking compatibility questions. Under normal circumstances, I usually only get the "bad" E-Mails or E-Mails asking how to "fix" a problem that has been encountered. I rarely get an E-Mail that says "Oh, yeah, everything works great! Just thought I would let you know!"

Since there is little information that I have found wandering around the net on this particular mother board, I will try and intercept the different compatibility issues and thoughts about this board before the send button is pressed...if you have any further information, please feel free to contact me, but make sure that you are fully aware that I neither work for these companies, nor am a engineer in the biz...just a power user and a hardware freak having a great time with new equipment that I come across.

Now, on with the show!
