Write a review for the Asus S1366 Intel X58 ATX A L here!
Great board but let down by dodgy BIOS/Sound issues.
Reviewed by ploppythakngaroo. Review Posted 17/01/2010
Firstly let me say DABS have been great with sorting out returns - no problem with their service at all. Tried two of these boards (with Core i7 920 and 6Gb of compatible memory) and had three problems which I believe are related to the bios (0608). Note: I had to update the BIOS when I got the board as it would not recognise my 9600GT card. 1. Whenever I disconnect the power (i.e. at wall or the PSU), the BIOS clock changed and other settings reset. I changed the battery. 2. The sound would not work most of the time. Would start working each time I went back into the BIOS though. I tried onboard sound and three sound cards. 3. The PCI slots were not always recognised - i.e. PCI USB card didn't always work. Everything else about the card was great - I really like the EPU energy saving feature which winds down the fans when at low load and switches off HDD's when they are not in use. Great board, but let down by the BIOS issues.
