 Solid Motherboard December 31, 2008
Daniel G. Lebryk
This is one very well laid out motherboard. The instruction book is perfectly clear. Virtually step by step instructions for assembly.
First power up everything worked perfectly.
I had a series of BSOD early on, and can attribute them to the Asus green utility. This software, on the fly, over and underclocks your computer. Something about my set up just didn't like that kind of monkey business. Once removed, the board has been rock solid.
My set up:
OCZ DDR2 1066 4Gb memory
Core 2 Quad Q9550, with stock fan
Antec P182 case
Antec 500W power supply
BFG 8800GT OC
2 Samsung SATA DVD burners
and a boat load of hard drives
One of the better parts of this motherboard - there are tons of USB connectors and SATA connectors. Sadly there's only 1 1594 port. The eSATA ports are on a supplied bulkhead (so you lose 2 SATA ports on the motherboard).
The Raid controller works fantastic.
I'd buy Asus again in a heartbeat.
Great motherboard with plenty of tweaking options December 7, 2008

I've had this board for about 3 months now and have had no issues with it. I did not have any of the problems that the other reviewer had when I set up my rig. Perhaps I was a bit luckier in picking out parts for my system, but everything worked out well for me.
Overall, it's a great, stable board with plenty of SATA connectors for extra drives. My only complaint is a minor one: I thought the BIOS layout was a little confusing.
My system as of December 2008:
Intel e8400 3GHz@3.6GHz
OCZ Reaper 2GB DDR2 1066 5-5-5-12@2.1V
Western Digital 500GB
2 x Western Digital 250GB
Lite-On DVD-RW drive
eVGA 8800 GTS 320MB
onboard sound
onboard ethernet
 NOT THE ASUS I REMEMBER November 2, 2008

I bought this board upon the past personal history with other Asus boards. Getting to this board, it will not recognize my ram, nor my two DVD (ROM) R/W drives. I have bought a new DVD burner and will have to let you know if that did the trick. As for the Ram, new ram solved the problem my old Ram was 533 and the new ram is 1066. The Asus P5Q liked it. I have now installed the new burner and the Q6600 is flying and the P5Q is humming...dc
