Conclusion
Overall, this board is a solid performer. Not once throughout our testing did the board crash in any way possible. We left it overnight running 3DMark 2002, Sisoft Sandra Burn In Test, and Folding@Home 2 (to mop up any spare CPU cycles) and as expected, it was still pumping in the morning.
Being a solid performer (on par with the SiS650) and a nice stable board with the standard features, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this board to the "MILD" overclocker or home user. For "HARDCORE" ;) overclockers however, while the performance of the board would easily satisfy you, the overclocking features would not, hence I cannot recommend this board to "HARDCORE" overclockers.
The board can be purchased for about $210 at most Quality Melbourne PC-Stores.
