    Looks like a solid board, haven’t read the review in depth, but good to see other players hitting here.

    Hey guys, great review. I think you really got the point. This is clearly not a highend motherboard, but the overall performance is really good. I would agree with you saying that the audio quality is really nice. I bought the board based on your review and i am using it already since a while. So far I am still happy with it. Keep the good work going!
