Great Motherboard, I bought 2!!!! November 18, 2008 This board is awesome, I am running Vista 64-bit, with 8G RAM, and 2 1T drive, the board can handle up to 6T I believe. All Sata, has IDE if you need that for your CDROM. All has VMWARE accellartor which you can turn on in the BIOS. If your machine boots slow, you need to know how to upgrad the BIOS. Mine is a MEDIA MACHINE< which records shows 24x7. It is also a Video Encoding machine, running 64bit, QUAD-CORE. It has optical output, 6 UBS, and 2 FIREWIRE. It also has External SATA link, and Network built on. I run an NVIDIO 500M card, the graphics are incredible, This is my DVD which I record shows, and encode them, burn to DVD with added Huadgepauge card. No more spending 10$ a month for Tivo or such. Intel board and chip is a great combo, if you need help you don't need to contact DELL in india. Just write to intel directly and get a real computer engineer who know the boards inside and out. Expect to flash the bios to get it to run good in 64-bit mode. Wonderful board, I have had no trouble with it. As i said I bought 2, one is a dual-core, and one was a QUAD. the QUAD chips beat dual-core like nothing you know. YOu need to purchase a simple fan also, 775 compat. All instructions come with it, with photos, very nice packaging. You must READ about the RAM, only use 1.8V ram, this is NOT an overclocking board. I recommend using Kingston Memory, but it from them directly. God Bless U.
There are better options. August 22, 2008 Short version: Intel treats its motherboards as reference designs for other vendors to polish into real products. It shows.
The BIOS has few options for tweaking, and is unusually slow to detect drives on boot. It takes more than half a minute to POST even with the "quick post" enabled.
This board will only accept 1.8v RAM modules. Unlike other boards, there's no way to increase the memory voltage or fine tune the timing to accommodate some modules.
There is no DVI connection for the integrated graphics, only has VGA. This would be a non-issue if the display weren't inexcusably blurry compared to VGA output of a typical graphics card. To get an idea what you system will look like with Intel Integrated graphics, take a screenshot apply a 3x3 Gaussian blur in Photoshop, GIMP, or the editor of your choice. Yes, it really is that bad.
As you should expect, there are no options to overclock your system, if you're interested in such.
This board gets two stars because my system boots. You can make it work -- use only 1.8v DDR2 RAM, update to the latest BIOS, and get the number of a good exorcist in your area. If you're more the DIY type, be certain that your Latin pronunciation is spot-on before attempting to power your system on, and skip any steps involving the sprinkling of holy water.
Seriously, however, I cannot possibly recommend this product. Consider instead a quality board from another vendor, such as ASUS or Gigabyte.
Don't Do it. Get an ASUS August 18, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is the fifth computer I've built and the first and last with an Intel board. This is what I had to do to get XP installed. All of this was learned the hard way doing install after re-install after re-install.
1. Create a "slipstream" XP installation disk with Raid drivers so windows can find the hard disk and video drivers. 2. Install with no more than one gig of memory to avoid freeze during installation. 3. Disable LAN during installation to avoid freeze. 4. Repair installation. Switch the DVD drive when Windows freezes during repair. (no amns file found)
The machine still pukes a blue screen occasionally and if I don't shutdown gracefully; on the next start up the Raid driver goes through a full verify and repair cycle which takes over an hour and slows down the machine quite noticeably. In addition the Intel monitoring program reports false positives about something non-specific being out of range for the CPU. It also says the L2 cache is inactive.
If I had to do it all over again, I would have paid a little more for the ASUS board. I've never had problems with ASUS boards.
Core 2 Quad Motherboard from Intel that enforces big changes. June 17, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is quite a compact board and an essential for Core 2 Quad processors like the almighty Q6600. However this board has new standards that many users may find hard to agree with. The first is that it forces you to drop PS/2 connections (unless you get adapters) and the 3.5" Floppy is officially extinct with it. While it can handle IDE this is really built for SATA drives. So quite simply if you have already found your 3.5" Floppy disks gathering dust and your PS/2 connecting hardware in disuse and no need for IDE anything and if you want to go with the latest cutting edge Core 2 Quad processors and don't mind experimenting with a bios to get your SATA drives up and running then this is really the next phase in motherboard evolution that is built to run systems designed for high end activities such as gaming on Microsoft Windows Vista (DirectX 10) with lots of memory, fast SATA drives, the Q6600 processor and a GeForce 8800 PCI-e or better.
While some components are a tight fit (some memory is millimetres away from the wiring with some cards in the PCI-e slot, so get the memory in before the video card) and some cards are literally going through a little more than a gentle force to flush with the case (this depends on the ATX case design though) it is still a robust fine choice for anyone who just wants to go with a brand new cutting edge PC. In this respect those who want to port IDE drives and hardware over a year old to this motherboard should expect a seriously hard time with lots of problems especially if it also concerns an XP installation which simply won't recognize the SATA drives without a driver that can only be installed via 3.5" floppy that this motherboard doesn't support. Avoid that nightmare, keep your old PC as it is and just try to go with new gear. If you do your rig will run like lightening and you will be playing games like Crysis and Bioshock on high settings in no time.
Stable no-frills Performance May 30, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have had this board running every day for over 9 months now (Enermax 720W, E6850, Mushkin DDR2-800, evga 8800GTX, Vista Premium 64, SATA RAID) and it's a real nice setup. Went together well. No overclocking, no major hassles. Sometimes I wish I had bought the D975BX2 instead so I could crank up my CPU. But that's just when I play Crysis ;)
The SATA driver at Vista install is a pain. The driver comes on floppy, and the mobo has no legacy floppy support. If they put drivers on a CD it would help a lot. I had to jump a few hoops to extract the driver files onto USB drive, which works for install. If you have an external USB floppy drive that should work too, I think.
The only "issue" with this board is the DirectSound driver sometimes won't reinitialize after sleep. That means no sound at all. I returned the first board due to this. It still happens sometimes, but a reboot fixes it. I'm running Vista64. My buddy has Vista32 and hasn't had the sound glitch on his.
Overall a good board for a solid system without any monkeying around with overclocking or wasted hours tweaking. Just buy good 1.8v DDR2-800.
BTW I get OK ping but am always first to login to gameservers during mapcycle.
