Comment: I managed to take the motherboard for 2400 p. Sobira comp from scratch myself. Manual in English, but written in detail. Works second month. Put I5 4440 Haswell and DDR3 1600 8 GB all started the first time. Check before buying or ask to update the seller BIOS. Audit the first. Convenient menu UEFI BIOS in Russian. The first time I encountered such a shell, I easily figured out everything intuitively clear and divided into sections. "Manual" read first learn parvilno! Easily updated BIOS to latest version from flash drive. The drivers all got quietly through the update center. I downloaded the latest driver versions from the site. Convenient programs for monitoring the board and settings from the disk. Small board format, but it’s convenient for me, because I don’t use slots other than a video card. Includes 2 SATA cables. Supports Sata 3-6 GB / s. And USB 3.0. It works stably, does not heat up (good blown body), without errors and failures. No problems described in other reviews with drivers or updating Bios and installing programs from the disk did not arise !!!! Many programs require a reboot after installation is common practice!

Advantages: Asus-ovsky glands I really like their stability

Disadvantages: Old revision

Comment: A mother with no frills, who wishes, the minimum necessary, this is the most. There are cheaper analogues, but about their reliability with time, there are questions.Oh yeah, I forgot, the old revision, does not see i3 Hasvel and cooler, you need to flash. But it is worth to say a little about this: Mamma came out earlier than percents. accordingly, does not understand. I bought this piece of iron in Chelyabinsk, in the magician Elista, the next day I came to them, so they say, and so I need your help, an employee without question, said wait a minute five and that's it. And then I plugged it in and showed that it was robbing, and I didn’t take a single ruble, I know one store that’s right on its website that they’re saying it’s like you need to sew, we don’t have it, it’s not us, it’s Asus, easy to solve, as I understand it is easily done. But Elista does the right thing. Thanks Elista! People choose wisely product.

Comment: For a budget, small, but enough gaming company, a mATX mother was needed, supporting new CPUs on LGA 1150, memory up to 1600 MHz, PCI-E 3.0 x16 slot for video, slot for wi-fi PCI-E x1, SATA3 for SSD and With USB 3.0 on the board itself for output to the mor at the case. I went up the price .. I found a couple with such characteristics, ASrock and Gigabyte, but there were no reviews for them, taking into account the + - the penny stopped at asus, because products from them. not very bad. Good mother according to my needs. If you have the same, then you can safely buy.
