    This is a great motherboard for a low cost system. Most people don't need RAID or SLI. These motherboards are great at overclocking also.
    As far as ClubIT.com goes I've bought parts from them before and never had a problem. Their shipping takes a little longer than Newegg but isn't bad. They sometimes have good combo deals on motherboards and CPU's.
    This price is pretty standard on this motherboard.

    A great board if you don't need SLI or SATA-RAID. Supports the new 45nm CPUs from Intel. Will need a bios flash but it is able to boot right out of the box and get you far enough to flash the bios. Has enough options in the bios for some decent over clocking but nothing too advanced.

    I threw in a Xeon E3110 (E8400 equivalent) and 2GB of whatever the latest Corsair memory deal was and it's been running great.

    #1, I assume you've never tried to return anything to NewEgg.

    if you're looking at this, may i also suggest the foxconn p35. it's about $20 more than this board (or about $30 less if you do the rebate; which i did); has all that this board has plus e-sata and the ability to do crossfire. i don't overclock, but it booted up with my q9450 just fine (updated the bios was the first thing I did), and runs my ram at the rated DDR2-800 @ 4-12 just fine. as far as i know; it has solid caps as well. this is my first foxconn motherboard (that i know of anyway), and i have been more impressed with their bios updates & it's stability than any other board i've worked with in the past 15 years or so.

    I got this motherboard from newegg about 8 months ago (for less money) and it has been running excellent. It is a great choice for overclocking a cheap Core2Duo if you don't need SLI. The only thing that I wish it had is firewire and eSATA.

    Got this MOBO from NewEgg last week and came DOA. I'm sending it back for a replacement. As far as I know and based on the NewwEgg reviews, this is a solid MOBO. In my expirience, NewEgg does a good job when you try to return an item.

    I once own this board, worked fine 32 days then completely dead. Can't return to Newegg bcause 32 days and had to send to Gigabyte for service. 2 weeks after they e-mailed to confirm they got it, they sent another e-mail with picture showing some kind of liquid dropped here and there and of course saying phisical damaged out of warranty. **** them, no more gigabyte

    I own this exact mobo. Got it from NewEgg. No problems yet (about 2 months in). Very easy to set up and recover when you screw up.
