Full review
So I bought this board without doing any research... what a mistake. This is a poor performer. Why? Let me explain. I ran 3dMark05
with a 7600GT graphics card and a AMD 3800+ x2.... score 4300. I ran Aquamark 57,000. I then tried to overclock this setup... nothing... 204mhz. The feature list is short but acceptable for boards in this range and worked fine.

I was lucky enough to be allowed to swapped this board for a Asus-M2N (paid extra for it). I fitted the new board run 3dMark05 and what do you know? 6050. I then run aquamark and also up to 74,000. Overclocked the setup to 280mhz Aquamark scored 86,000

Bottom line:
If you are looking for a cheap quiet motherboard with onboard graphics to do your office work on or/and for home cinema purposes then I would recomend this board. In to gaming and serous graphic rendering then look elswhere.
