    Perfect for me!

    Not much to say about this motherboard: very easy to install (whereas I install a PC... every 10 years!), it fulfils its role perfectly, associated with 64 GB of RAM and an X3960 processor. The performance is as good as I could have hoped for. I did update the drivers, having had an Ethernet problem after a few minutes of use. Once the driver was installed, problem solved! And above all, never reappeared!
    If I had a small reproach to make, it is of course its price...
    Thank you LDLC for the fast and good shipping!
