This was my frist time not buying a brand new computer from someone like Dell, I thought it would be fun to build my own. I order these motherboard to go with my i7 3.0. the set up on the board its nice there is alot of room for iteams and the PCI-E slots arent close like on a Dell system so it can hold the Gtx 285 with no issues. It has a really great on board sound care and the 1G on board Lan its sweet for anyone who can use it. I not had any issues out of it and Find Asus is a great buy when you look at other companys who want twice the price for the same hardware set up

Works great, no complaints

I used this MoBo to rebuild an aging Alienware computer. The main components are the P6T, Intel i7 975 Extreme, 6 gigs Corsair ram and 850 watt power supply, ATI 8570, and CoolerMaster V8 CPU cooler. Assembled everything, booted it up, and it's been running smoothly ever since. I had a very minor issue in that I wanted to setup 2 WD Velociraptor Hard Drives in raid one, and the raid setup screen went by so fast that I couldn't read it, but a little research told me to hit -i as soon as I saw it, and after that setting up the raid array was easy. I haven't tried overclocking as I haven't seen a need to, I've been playing Bioshock 2 with everything set at maximum with no problems.

I may try another 8570 in crossfire if the need arises, but so far there is no need. No crashes (Windows 7 Pro), no heat issues, and no complaints.

P6T Memory recgonition problem

I am building a new system: got a i7 920, 3x2 (6G) Kingston 1600 DDR3 memory, and the ASUS P6T. I followed all directions about placement of DIMMs, spent an entire day trying different DIMM arrangements, but the BIOS would only recognize 4078 even though all 3 2G DIMMS were in place. I confirmed the memory was all OK. The problem seemed to be related to DIMM slot A1. I then searched GOOGLE and found MANY hits of others with this exact problem, but there were a number of different theories as to why. Some believe it is how the CPU was seated. Others, say it is a bent CPU pin on the MB. I've checked all, and cannot find anything obvious. So, I took the board back and instead got a "EVGA X58 x3". Added the memory, CPU and BAM - everything works fine.

Before investing in the ASUS, you might want to do further research to prepare for this problem. I read a lot of positive things about the P6T, but after all the headache I went thru, I am staying away from ASUS for now.

One other thing to note - make sure you get a power supply with the connector types for your specific motherboard. The one I had for the ASUS (Antec BASIC 500W) worked fine with the ASUS, but did not have to correct ATX 12V 8pin connector for the EVGA card and I could not find an adapter. I ended up getting a new power supply (CORSAIR 750W) that has the needed EPS/ATX12V 8pin connector. And in general, make sure the power supply you do select is powerful enough for what you want to accomplish - if you're going to run multiple graphics cards, have a number of SATA drives, and a high end CPU, get a good power supply > 500W.

Good motherboard but not for overclocking

I have owned this motherboard for more than eight months. The main reason I bought this motherboard was its capability to adjust many parameters for overclocking.

Asus has an excellent reputation for its quality products. This one also has lots of nice things that I was looking for, such as all kind of ports (the usual USBs, Firewire, Ethernet, 7.1 audio HD plus an external e-sata) and overclocking features.

However, the overclocking really let me down. Whatever I overclocked, there's always the cold boot problem. Form time to tome I had to press the reset button to light the screen if it was a cold boot. If you google it, thousands of people owning the same motherboard have the exact same problem and do not have an solution.

In short, if you are not going to overclock your CPU, this is a good choice. Otherwise, try another one.

Great i7 board

Excellent board, with a good BIOS with tons of options, good overclocker, plenty of connection options for just about anything. Don't see any need to spend more for a Deluxe V2, this board should handle most people's needs with ease.
