It's a nice little motherboard with lots of features, possibly more than on any other mATX motherboard. It is optional to install Asus ExpressGate, which is basically a micro-OS built in the motherboard, which i didn't use, cause it only delays time until your main OS loads. Nice little overclocker. The support for 1066MHz RAM really paid of so i could push my OC without any RAM issues since i used 1066 RAM at 800MHz. I would definitely recommend it for HTPC's cause the onboard GPU is very good. You could couple it up with a series HD 3400 GPU for Hybrid Crossfire if you want to game on slightly higher settings. The IGP ran Crysis fairly good at mostly low settings @ 30-40FPS. The IGP is also overclockable, with 500MHz as stock i could push it straight to 700 without raising voltage.
After my experience wit this board i can give nothing but a recommendation  .
