Nice
Working with a A8-3850. Worked out of the box. Built for a basic system. I have an HD6850 that I will likely throw in to see how it improves and see how the Dual Graphics works. So far though this motherboard works like it should.

Solid Board
Nice solid board. With an A6-3500 and 8GB of memory it makes a nice low to mid system. Lots of USB ports (only 2.0 though) which is a plus. Will probably throw in a SSD at some point since the slowest part of the system is the HDD.

it's alive!!!
Bought this and paired it with an A6-3500 to replace an older motherboard in my mother-in-laws system. Threw in some memory, hard drive and used the same case and power supply. After installing the OS and drivers, I was up and running like a champ before lunch. Not to shabby for an inexepensive upgrade.
