Awesome board, build went easy, had to diag a bad stick of Ram along the way, but other then that running great. Have not over clocked yet, so unsure of that area.

I thought this would be an excellent board for a low-end system I was building for a friend. It provided the basis to build up a decent system with a Core 2 Duo. The only thing wrong with it is the odd placement of the ATX connector - it is located at the rear of the board.

Perfect for me. Realy nice quality/price. For only 100$ you can have this good motherboard. They're nicely run my quadcore and my 8GO DDR2-1066.

when coupled with my Core 2 Quad q6600 and 4 GB of Kingston Hyper X 1066, this board works great. overclocked very well on air cooling. Bios takes some getting used to. great deal for the price unless you need RAID or multi videocards.
One of the features stripped out of the "Light" version is RAID. Original documentation for this board indicated that it did support RAID, but it does not. Need to now buy P5Q Pro.
