Does not have the best heatsink attatchment

I love everything about this motherboard. It has a ton of usb ports, has an awesome aesthetic, and was fairly cheap. However, with only one place for the heatsink to attach, it made life difficult with the heatsink falling off every now and again, even with thermal paste.

Great motherboard for a half decent rig!!

excellent board for the money. I had an 8-core overclocked and 32gb hyperx ram connected and this board never missed a beat. I had ran CPU & GPU monitoring programs and the board was never the cause of any throttling issues which was great.

ASUS M5A97 PLUS

This Motherboard has very nice specifications in the way the processor works. The only drawback is that the video card slot is only a pcie x16 2.0. A higher 3.0 rating would have been nicer but I read the specs and knew what I was getting before hand.

Started right up and works as advertised; The specs; are very good where the processor lives; The shopping from Newegg was fast; 7 - 10 day shipping was 5 days from California to New York

No cons so far; Time tells these things

Pros

This one is to replace one that I damaged. Liked the original well enough to buy exactly the same again. Running and 8 core at 4.2, and it works without flaw.

works exactly as claimed; good bios; lots of connection; extra card options

Great Product

ASUS never fails to amaze me. Runs amazing for such a low price. Had it for a few months now and still running strong.

Awesome!

It`s a good motherboard, however the fan plugs are a little too far for the fan wires in my case (enermax ostrog). Had to stretch the wire to its limit but it's touching one of my ram sticks and it's a really sketchy getho set up. Other than that, installed with ease and works like a charm.

They sold me a brick (broken motherboard)

They sold me a brick (broken motherboard). I was unfortunately out of my "money back guarantee" so my only other option was to RMA the MOBO to Asus. So that I can wait an addition 2 weeks before I can finally put my PC together. Do not buy from these people unless you like potatoes!

Audio not working correctly

In general the motherboard is doing its job. But I have a problem with the audio. I connect the microphone and the headphones to the front panel of my case, and the microphone is picking up whatever I listening in my headphones.

great motherboard

For the money, the quality of this motherboard is excellent! it even has overclocking capabilities. with my FX6300 and R9 270 graphics card there is no bottle necking at all and The Asus AI suite software/drivers do some pretty cool things.

Easy To Install; Fast; Highly Compatible; Quiet; Reliable

Great Board

I've been using this board for over a year with an FX-8320, and it has been one of the best motherboards that I've ever used. It just works, day after day, without problems. If you don't need SLI, this is the way to go.

- Solid as a rock; it never freezes or bluescreens - Everything works as advertised - Extremely versatile

AI Suite II is buggy and unreliable; If you want ultimate system stability, don't install it
