This board has some great features and an elegant look for a blue themed case. The AI Suite software has some nice features including the FAN Xpert+ and an auto CPU overclocking tool (TurboV EVO) which can help a new overclocker get a stable starting point. It's got lots of useful I/Os including 4 USB 3.0, fibre optic, display port and HDMI. For those who want to do 3 way SLI make sure your PSU isn't directly beneath the MOBO otherwise you will not have room for a dual slot card in the 3rd SLI PCI slot. Overall it's got a lot of stuff on a well priced board with a great software Suite.

Love this mobo, using it with an Intel i5 3570K, 16GB Kingston DDR3 and a GTX 670 with a crucial M4 ssd. The thing boots up in about 10 -15 seconds!

Great motherboard. The 3 PCIe slots allow me to run up to 3 video cards in addition to the onboard instead of trying to track down old, slow, over-priced PCI graphics cards.
Board fits well inside the computer case and connectors are easy to get to. I have purchased several of these motherboards (I only buy ASUS). They are easy to install and bios is easy to navigate.
