This card is the best card I've ever seen since the A8N-SLI I had a while back. Everything works fine on it and I just seem to get in love with the Dolby Digital Output Sound (SPDIF only). The Marvell Chipset on the card is a little tricky because the drivers on the CD doesn't work with it (You get an Error and can't install the drivers) so if you don't install them you can't see what on your Chipset (PATA or SATA connected devices) but if you go to Asus.com and download the latest drivers for it, everything works just fine after that !! The legendary Asus stability, the AC'97 (Realtek High Definition Audio) onboard soundcard and the versatility of this board makes it a must have for Intel User these days... (Oh yeah !! This card does the Crossfire from ATI too but not with ATI chipset but with Intel chipset and that's cool !!!)
