OMG! This is the thing!! If you have ever dreamed about owning the best motherboard in the world, then here it is. I must say this is the greatest mobo ever, not only is it very overclockable, it has so many features that you can't even remember them. This is a must have for any hard-core gamer.
I love the CPU compatibility of this product, you can almost fit in every Intel 775 CPU found today. It also features SLI (Scalable Link Interference) support ... ...512MBs installed on this motherboard.
The board is well cooled and can easily be overclocked. I think its NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI chipset will keep the performance up for a while.
I have to give this product five stars because it's the best mobo in my opinion. I only found one thing to critisize, the price, I know it's the best board but anyway... ...

Advantages: easy to install,stable,reliable,fast Disadvantages: none
I've had Intel DQ965GF board for now over 6 months that so far it does a great job. This is my first Intel board for personal use and I must say that it is impressive. This board runs great, installs flawlessly. The built in network adapter is working great so I need not waste a PCI slot for a network card. The sound quality is pretty good but I am an audiophile so I added a sound card. I had a video card, so I did not use the video output. They ... ...I like to run a lot of system intensive programs all at the same time and this board and chip along with my RAM choice has been a pleasure all around. I have not updated to the new BIOS and even without the update I have not had any problems. This board is another success story from Intel. If you are looking for a board you will be happy with this one! ...

Advantages: Feature loaded, stable, cheap Disadvantages: Board construction not solid, Limited Bios option, 2PCI slots
Pretty stable board. Booted up on first try. No hardware issues eithier. Been using it for 2 weeks now, no problem at all. Bios seems to be a bit limited and conservative. I like the ASUS EZflash 2.0 to flash to the latest bios. It's kinda neat not doing it in DOS mode. The 8-channel on-board sound device is more than decent in quality. Honestly I didn't expect it to sound good. The intellifan feature is cool to have too, preventing those hardware ... ...I know this is a micro ATX but I think they should have added an extra PCI slot. 2 is just not enough. Board construction seems flimsy too. Overall, decent for a budget board...

Advantages: Stable , solid board Disadvantages: Needs to beef up on add-on features
...from newegg. I've always liked Gigabyte for its quality and stability. Same can be told w/ this board. It has great options in bios. It was quick to set-up for me. No nagging issues and incompatibilities. Been using it on games and video editing, works like a charm. This board though on the pricy side, it can be all worth its money for some. But certainly not for the budget conscious...
Among the mid to high end boards Gigabyte is one of the best. ...

Advantages: cheap, stable, easy to install, efficient (for the entry level) Disadvantages: integrated graphic card
This motherboard is a very good choice for those who do not wish to use PC for extreme gaming. Simple, stable and pretty efficient. You have everything what you may need. Two memory slots are enough. Don`t count on too much from the chipset VGA - it`s not enough for gaming. for sure you will have to invest some money into separete VGA. PCI express goes with this product. The parts on the motherboard are placed in a good way - you won`t have any problems ... ...system it may appear as a too small, but no worry - it`s fair enough and it will stop the chipset from overheating. You can build very good machine on this motherboard. There is no problem with installing it, drivers work fine. I can recommend BIOS update in the beginning ...
