    Excelente tarjeta madre, con 3 PCI, AGP. Para los que crean que tiene video integrado, no es asi, el chip NVIDIA es para optimizar la misma para juegos, etc. El chip de controladores es NVIDIA. Excelente producto y de gran calidad.


    5 out of 5 stars This board does support SLI   May 20, 2008

    With the people here saying this board is not SLI, only nVidia based graphics cards support SLI currently. The SLI option is for anyone wanting to use more than one GPU, but they must be identical cards, which is how SLI works. This board allows you to plug 2X PCI-E GPUs, thus the SLI in the name of the board. If you think any MB comes with SLI built into it, then you will understand that you will not only be paying for a MB, but two GPUs as well, and that will cost you a fortune.


    This board runs great, installs flawlessly, and has been going strong for me for over 6 months.

    I have not used the on board sound as I am into better performance, but I have heard that it rivals separate sound boards.


    I have been building computers for over 15 years, and while I prefer higher end boards for different situations, this one is my gamer machine (current financial situation has gone down hill a little, making the budget a little thinner at time of this purchase) for a middle of the road performer, this board is another success story from Asus.

    If you are considering this board, mark it for future reviewing for after you shop around, and then come back to this one, Asus is a performer MB manufacturer, they have a good reputation, and there are newer BIOSs for it available.

    I strongly suggest this board for your next AMD MB.

    This board has been horrible for me. Have owned it for two years, and have had replaced twice. Great board out of the box, but then as time went on just kept seeing problem after problem. Stopped keeping time, would BSOD, would only start after several tries, until finally it wouldn't start at all. THIS HAPPENED TWICE, TWO DIFFERENT BOARDS! Asked if they would let me pay the difference to get a different model, and was told they do not do that. Asked to talk to a manager and was given the run around, told he would call me back, and then never did. Google the board and you'll find page after page of forums with the same issues. I'm not buying ASUS ever again. Save your money, don't buy this board.

    After rmaing this board, vista 64 still keeps BSODing. Windows xp works perfectly, swapped ram, psu, cpu and still no go on this board. Stay away from this economy board before you get nightmares like I have gotten. Also, very poor control in the bios of changing ram voltages as well as cpu voltages. Max supported voltage is 1.95volts
