Asus P7H55
$100.00
Released January, 2010
The Pros:BIOS is full-featured, gives you great control of the board. Component quality is very good, everything feels solid and well built. Large feature set for the price, good value.
The Cons:Some compatibility issues with certain kinds of RAM, need to check ahead of time. Back IO panel doesn't fit very well, seems a bit awkwardly positioned. Overclocking software is very poor, not many features and very awkward.
