5.0 out of 5 stars Great board for mid-grade HTPC
Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2011
Verified Purchase
I bought this motherboard for a mid-grade media pc I was building. I needed a micro-ATX board for the Lian Li PC-C37 media case. (BTW a very nice case, very sleek). 4 gigs of ram and the i3core-540 processor, this thing has more than enough resources to run a media pc. Usually I prefer separate video and audio cards but because I was ballon-on-a-budget, I wanted the video and audio cards to be integrated. If you don't intend to use it for gaming or other high end visual applications this will work nicely. The media software XBMC runs very smooth, videos look great. Installation instruction is basically a large diagram with pretty basic explanations. Most people who buy motherboards should be fairly technically inclined and thus don't need to have their hands held. Pretty much the exact opposite of all those completely unnecessary install disks for wireless cards and routers. It does come with a nice motherboard driver CD which worked great if you are running windows. I hadn't tried Linux yet so I can't offer any insight on the driver support there. Ubuntu usually has pretty good driver support. Lots of USB ports, and even an old school PS2 if you happen to still be using some old school peripherals. Nice integrated gigabit LAN port works well for transferring large media files.

An interesting note. Space is a bit tight in some areas on the board. If you decide to add a PCI-Express card the back of the card will come very close to the DIMM slots. You have to have the securing brackets for your memory in the upright and locked position in order to fit your PCI-Express card. So Install your RAM first in the slots nearest the CPU. Also no direct firewire ports on the motherboard. You will have to purchase a card to convert to firewire. Not a huge deal but something that left me scratching my head when I went to plug in my firewire front port.

Overall a great board for my build. If you are looking to build a nice mid-grade machine (Especially for a HTPC) with limited space in your case, this motherboard will work nicely for a foundation.

Works perfect - replaced on a Dell computer. I'm lucky I have a son that knows how to do this kind of repair. When I called Dell, they were only concerned that my warranty ran out and wanted to sell me an updated warranty plan. I just wanted to know if I could purchase a new motherboard for them, not impressed with Dell customer service.

2.0 out of 5 stars Hard2FindParts - Not the best. . .
Reviewed in the United States on January 22, 2014

So I ordered my motherboard on a Monday, and selected standard 3-5 day shipping. It took three 2 whole weeks to get to me. Then it got to me and was not compatible with windows 8. Ok that's fine. I went and bought a copy of windows 7. Ok that's alright. So I plugged in the board and it kept crashing and wouldn't run windows 7 either. So I took it and returned it to Hard2FindParts because it was defective, and it took them another two weeks to respond to me about getting the board, and somehow the CPU pins were damaged in transit, so they told me they wouldn't replace my board. After hours of debating with the customer support, I finally got them to refund my purchase. However, this board is $150. I was refunded $120. So I lost another $30 dollars for something that was not my fault.
The board itself was nice, just try and get it from another manufacturer.

I used this motherboard as a replacement for a ASUS LGA1156 Intel P55 Deluxe motherboard which crash due to electrical problems I had.
It turned out to be a perfect replacement as it was compatible with all other components in the computer. It booted up without any problems just had to install board drivers.

I am a network engineer, with a Computer Science degree. Been doing this for over 15 years. One major fault for this motherboard is that even though it has a DVI and VGA, most of the 1156 CPUs will not support it and you'll have to buy a video card to get things working... Totally unnecessary.
