I had to replace a mobo which died so I chose this mobo+CPU. I was already using this mobo in another computer and I was really satisfied with it (I lost my appetite in trying Asus mobos due to their total lack of support and big issues I had with their motherbosrds as performance). Then I said OK if I am using an Intel CPU let's stick with Intel as motherboard. This mobo benchmarks are not the best and as features you may find other mobos with more. But when it comes to stability and performance (especially of the Intel Storage Matrix RAID) I would say is the best if I take the cost into account. The quad core CPU will not help you a lot today (compared with a dual core) because to few applications are using all 4 cores but it will help you in the future. I installed Vista on this computer without having any problems and is running decent (I used a less performed video card and I can see this in performance). However, this is a development computer not one used for games. |

Gotta say godliest comp i've built yet 2 of my friends bought the same set up and its amazing. Ive run everything on real time setting w/ high quality games and such. no problem i've never gotten over 75%, most of the time only 2 of the cores take the workload, b/c they r efficient enough by themselves. Easily accessibility to fit just about and cpu fan u want as well. All around beast of a machine. And overclocked this thing is unstoppable

Awesome deal for the price. Mobo paired w/ 610W PS, 4GB Corsair Mem, 32bit WinXP Pro, V1 Thermatake Fan, XFX 512 8500GT PCIEx16... not a single problem. Runs AutoCAD like a dream. 64bit means future expandability. |

This is absolutely the best board I've seen yet. With all the maxed out onboard features, assembly of a new comp was a breeze. I drooled over the audio system, the high-end network adapter, and the mere thought of Crossfire. The processor's unbelievably reliable, and only reaches 36% capacity when multitasking with a large game in the foreground. This bundle is well worth the price and then some! I recommend this to anyone needing a good comp fast, aswell as those looking to upgrade over time. In my case it's both, and I'll definitely be ordering again from TigerDirect soon. |

What You Should Know
|
Before you buy - make sure your motherboard is compatible with this memory. For example, DDR Memory won't work with motherboards designed for only DDR2, SDRAM or RDRAM memory, and vice versa. Only use the memory speed recommended by your motherboard's manufacturer. Please read the specifications carefully or call us for expert advice.

 Know Your BIOS!
With today's rapid pace of
design advancement, new product updates come fast and furious. This is
especially true of board-level products, like Motherboards, Video Cards, GPU
Processor Cards, and other main edge connector products. The good news is
that manufacturers have designed in the ability to easily update your
product BIOS, which is sometimes important for full compatibility. So before
installing or combining components, it is always a good idea to check your
product's current BIOS revision against the manufacturer's website, to
determine if an update is needed, or advisable. The manufacturer's
documentation will guide you through this process if it is necessary.
However, remember that most products are designed to be plug-n-play out of
the box!But
What Is BIOS?
Most electronic devices,
from computers to MP3 players have software embedded in their hardware.
These are programs that tell the device how it will function - from basic to
advanced functions - so that it knows how to start, and perform the most
simple and complex tasks it was designed for. We call this software the BIOS
(sometimes also called Firmware). In computer jargon, BIOS stands for "Basic
Input/Output System", but in reality, there is very little "basic" about it.
In your computer's motherboard for example, it tells your computer how to:
start up; communicate with hardware components, such as hard drives and
video; how to move data in and out of memory; and even talk to your USB
connected devices. Without your BIOS, your device is JOOL (just out of
luck!).
Keep in mind that changing a PC's BIOS
settings incorrectly can cause the PC to malfunction. If this happens, a
BIOS reset is usually available, and will need to be performed to return the
BIOS to the default "factory settings." This is usually activated by a
jumper on the motherboard. [Warning: always read
your motherboard or system manual thoroughly, before upgrading your BIOS, or
making BIOS setting changes!] Though normally, most incorrect
settings should have no negative affect on your PC, but please follow each
step explicitly since some can.
Remember: It is recommended that you reboot
after each individual BIOS setting change to ensure that your system
functions normally. If you make numerous changes before rebooting, and your
system will no longer boot, you won't know which change is responsible for
the failure.
Updating Your BIOS
Before you consider updating your BIOS, be sure you need to - not every
update will be needed or even benefit you. Also be sure you are up to
the technical challenges you will face. Changing the version of BIOS
stored in your computer or motherboard is not the kind of activity
recommended for novice users. To perform this successfully, you need
to be comfortable and familiar with your BIOS settings, and be able to
download and apply the BIOS Update without issue. For this reason, it
is best to let professional computer technicians do this work for you, if or
when it is needed. However, if you know what you are doing, it is a
fairly easy task.
Before Updating BIOS, consider the
following:
- The reasons for updating your BIOS -
frequently, updating is unnecessary
- Identifying your BIOS chip - if
replacing is the approach required
- Replacing your BIOS chip - this requires
significant care, and can void your warranty
- Locating your latest BIOS version -
required for any update
- Flashing your BIOS - make sure you have
a UPS!
- Live update - great for minor or quick
updates - again a UPS is vital - a partial update can make your system
inoperative
- Configuring your new BIOS settings -
read the manual! twice for good measure!

Upgrading Your Memory to Improve Performance
As programs get more complex, you’ll discover that your trusty PC may not
be working as quickly or efficiently as it used to. While your impulse might
be to purchase a new, more powerful computer, you can dramatically improve
performance simply by upgrading your memory. For far less than what you’d
pay for a new computer, a memory upgrade will often have your PC working
faster and more efficiently than ever before. Plus, it’s relatively easy
to install new memory and only takes a few minutes of your time. For our
step-by-step guide to simple memory installation click here. |

How Much
Memory Do You Really Have?
When you look at the specifications for a computer, it will display the
installed memory, and typically the maximum memory that can be installed.
However, while these are real values, they represent a potential useable
memory depending upon the installed operating system, and other factors. The actual useable memory may be different
(lower) from these values.
The reason is simply that a computer may have a limitation in the operating
system (such as Windows 32 bit versions), or configured to use shared memory,
which reduces the amount of RAM that is available to the CPU by using
some of it for other purposes, such as for video memory. In some
cases, you can control the maximum useable memory through system settings,
by upgrading from a 32 bit to a 64 bit version of Windows XP or Vista, or by upgrading to a video card that has internal onboard video memory.
But always
remember, that the amount of memory that your system reports, is not always
the amount of actual installed memory. For example, if you have 4GB
installed, 32 bit versions of Windows will typically report 3.2GB due to a
limitation of Windows itself. Also note that different Windows
programs report available and maximum memory differently, which can be
confusing. If you find that you need more
memory, we suggest expanding your system memory, since this is the most
effective performance increase, and the one that is easiest to perform .
