Strengths: Good Quality Board.
Weakness: Ridiculous location of the IDE connector.
I have been a loyal fan of ASUS motherboard for many years now, brought ASUS board in my last 3 build, and it never gave me any problems, unlike some of the brands out there. This board is still an excellent board in terms of quality, there really isn't much to say about it. I also really like the Q-Connector, it makes connecting the front panel jumpers a lot easier. Now with the bad, the...
Strengths: Does what I need when I need it. Stays cool runs hard.
Weakness: Anything over 1638 FSB I loose my sata drives....Ican push my cpu to 3.98 ghz but only with ide drives.. But I can handle this
I run a Intel e6750 2.6 ghz O/C to 3.29 ghz. FSB is O/C to 1638 no complaints HERE!!! OCZ Reaper edition ddr2800/pc26400 O/C to 1066. Radeon HD 4350 Graphics Card O/C to 690 mhz..I know it's a che
Strengths: Feature set; build quality; ASUS name.
Weakness: Doesn't work. Design flaw or quality problem.
First board purchased from MWAVE was defective. Of course it took a week of testing to narrow it down to the MB. RMA'd directly to ASUS. New board arrived. Could not get OS to see the LAN port. Finally read on another bulletin board to remove plug from USB. Finally got the OS to see the LAN port. Shut down and went to restart. Fans came on but no boot. Cycled the power switch several times and it...
Strengths: Vista ready!! Copper heatsinks. Six USB ports on back bezel.
Weakness: If you want to setup a RAID configuration you have to have an external hard drive that has eSATA. No Cool Stack! Only 4 SATA ports.
This is a great motherboard that gave me NO problems setting it up. This motherboard lacks the extras its bigger brothers have, but still packs a punch. The ASUS P5K motherboard has 1333FSB so I used the Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 with 2GB 800FSB RAM and this computer runs like a champ! The only complaint I really have is that in order to setup a RAID configuration you have to have an external hard...
Strengths: Easy to install
Weakness: IDE connector in bad place
Great to pair with and Intel Q6600. Install CPU fan/heatsink before you put board in case. Stock Heatsink/fan doesn't seat as well and third party heatsink/fans do. IDE connector is in a bad spot. if you need to add an additional fan, a wide IDE cable will interfere with air flow.

Anyone looking at building a new desktop system should not look any further than Intel Core 2 processors, and when time comes to pick a platform you should have Intel's own P35 chipset in mind as it officially offers 1333MHz FSB support and will be compatible with upcoming 45nm processors. This translates in a fairly 'future-proof' platform, with some models currently available supporting DDR3...

To start with this is my first ASUS i prefered INTEL all the time!!!!!!
