Good, but old, motherboard
The good: well made; well layed out; overclocking options; takes up to 8GB of RAM; runs the CPU cool; cheap for what you get.
The less good. (1) Getting into the BIOS can be hard - it's easier if you use a PS2 rather than USB keyboard (and do not disable 'fast startup' in an attempt to get into the BIOS more easily, for you'll be there for 20 minutes waiting to press the return key). (2) It does not take *more* thann 8GB, and it does not take RAM faster than 800 DDR2. (3) It's USB 2 and SATA 2. (4) There's little support, because Abit went bust. (5) It didn't come with a backplate thingy (though it didn't say it would, either).
In sum: if you want a cheap, well-made motherboard - with the occasional quirk - from the era of socket 775 and DDR2, then this is great. I might add that to get fan control working decently I found that I had to setup it up in the BIOS *and* run the 'uguru' program in Windows. (I don't know how the fan control would do under Linux.)

Better than buying via the ChemistDirect website
My experience of the ChemistDirect website has been bad. Buying the same product through their Ebay shop has gone a lot more smoothly.

All good, though of course . .
. . I wouldn't mind the product cheaper!
