Reviewed by . Review Posted 28/09/2010
What an amazing little board, especially at this price. This was at the core of a Base-Value Gaming system that i recently built. System had an Intel PD, 2GB RAM, 1TB HDD, GeForce 9500 Graphics Card and a Blu-Ray Combo Drive all bolted to this board. Once i had (very easily) installed all of the boards drivers, the system worked amazingly well. I would happily buy another of these for future builds.
