DOA and no EVGA support - avoid EVGA and their products
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: DOA - Death On Arrival - there is not pro there. Avoid EVGA and its products if you can.
Cons: DOA - Death On Arrival - That is a big CON. Avoid EVGA and its products if you can.
Other Thoughts: I tried to call, left msg's, no call back. Sent multi emails to support and Mgr but no replies for days. Search fo...

Great MOBO support not so knowledgeable
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great motherboard with an awesome feature set. 8 Sata ports pretty much gives you the ability to make a nice mini server with all different types of RAID configuration. A good on board video card for streaming video and audio to TV and reciever.
Cons: EVGA support not quite so knowledgable. I give the board 5 eggs, but the support 2 eggs. ...

Big Disappointment
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Board appears to be physically manufactured well. Built in graphics and PCIe slot for additional video card were what drew me to this board.
Cons: Where do I start. Board worked fine for 2 weeks with 4 DIMMS. Ran boinc and memtest86+ and gentoo without issue. Tossed box, mailed in rebate. Ordered EVGA 9800 GT PCIe card. Installed it. Box ...

Board has potential but is not fully cooked.
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Nvidia's 730i monolithic chipset with 9300 IGP. BIOS features basic features required for CPU/Memory overclocking for adjusting voltages and bus speeds. BIOS also features overclocking of the 9300 IGP (slap a 40mm scythe on the chipset heatsink) and crank up the hertz. Lots of SATA and USB connections. 4 slots for dual channel DDR2 memory.

Great overall board
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Very solid board. Has tons of the performance options I needed. My old board (a biostar) went bad after four months and took my graphics card (GeForce 8400) with it. No I'm not an intense gamer so I don't need ultra high end graphics. Currently running with dual moniters on DVI and VGA. HDMI option is nice, heard it works great, but do not ha...

7.1 works for me over HDMI
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Like another person said booted up first try and everything was recognized correctly. Havent done to much testing other then making sure 7.1 over HDMI worked as that was important to me.
Cons: Only issue I had was I was going to install my 2 pci express tuner cards and the header for the sound is in the way. Not a big deal but they could have...

Don't believe the hype!
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Lots of inputs, very easy to install - can actually run off of a 4 pin CPU connection (Core2duo). Video runs clean with TMT and WinDVD 9 Plus BD.
Cons: HDMI AUDIO IS LIMITED TO 2.0!!!! There is no 7.1 HDMI audio available for this board - there are better option out there IMHO. Claims a Protected audio stream mix - I hop...

Good Luck, you're going to need it
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Board is running stable with q6600 and 4 gigs of ram.
Cons: For all of the great support that evga has for the rest of their products, the 730i and 730a are the biggest let down. If you buy do not expect to download drivers from evga. Do not expect to get a bios update. You may or may not be able to get your memory to work. It may or may ...
