    All the reviews I've seen say it's great.

    If you are building from scratch, have you thought about going s the socket 939 route? It'e more future proof and around the same price.

    It's a tweaker's board so stock performance is nothing to write home about but once you start playing in the BIOS you can improve that.
    As has been said 939 is more future proof for not much extra.

    DFI NF4 boards probably in February.

    I have a DFI NF3 myself. If u're an overclocker and going 754, this is THE board. No discussion.
    If u just want a great board without overclocking, this is a okay-ish board. IMHO, it's just not as stable as eg. ASUS. There are some things u really gotta figure out urself before running exactly as u want. Had some initial probs with RAID and random shut-downs. It's running great now, though...

    Great board at a great price. Only prob is there are too many options in the bios. Had my fsb up to 288 but my ram lets me down up there runs 245 X 10 on my 3000+ no problems.

    If you can hangout for the nf4 do so but is a lot more expensive. Another forumn im on have got there hands on a tester and it flys with a fx55 in it.
