i jsut got one ... i love it havn't tried overclocking yet .. waiting on heatsink

just wanted to know what you all thought about it
 
Great board,i got my 6750 to 4ghz(500fsb) in it.The raid controller is a bit picky with hdd's though,i tried raid with my two disc and it constantly failed,it is working fine on my new board.

Otherwise i dont have a bad word to say,it is a good reliable good oc'ing board.

Oh mine cost £146 when i bought it.

Should be a pretty good board. ASUS boards are rock solid.

nah, my Maximus Formula is annoying as hell. At one point I actually tried to kill it via legit methods, no, it held on, but it wont take me past 470. sob. And because ASUS's BIOS's are like the the pimped care w/ spinners of bios's, its 2MB big, which means traditional floppy flashing is done. I've done it twice and each time I had to monkey around for hours to get it to take.

My next board will be a DFI, and if bulldozer gets a say, it will be an AMD.
