Advantages: soo many, cannot describe them in just few words Disadvantages: none apparent
and so I went to open it and so I went to install it and so on only to find out that my old motherboard wouldn't support it. Its BIOS was un-upgradeable (plus few more other reasons) and so I went out again to look for new motherboard. This time I had to have it instantly (yes the very same day) but you wouldn't believe me how very few shops in London sell motherboards. I managed to find one and only ( AsusP5Q PRO ATXiP45) and there I was on my way home with smile totally excited to set it up and get it running. Well again to my dissapointment I realised that this motherboard just won't fit in my old Dell chassis because Dell's speciality is probably custom made hardware or at least motherboards which are fitted in the chassis basically upside down + few extra weird things which are here (in my humble opinion) to prevent you from upgrading ...

This motherboard is also quiet, as it has no fans but great cooling with heat pipes and such. This is a great, stable board.
Also one of its advantages, is the overclocking potential. This is one of the best boards out there right now for overclocking. (Note: Overclocking voids your warranty). It allows the great Core 2 Duo ...
