One of the BEST sub $250 z68 Motherboard!

review by rxsocal

I bought this motherboard at Microcenter in September when it was on sale. Original price was $250. For a couple days, Microcenter had it for $150 plus $20 rebate. I bought it with the 2600k combo which subtracted $80 from the motherboard price. Total came out to be $70 for the motherboard plus $20 rebate.

So far, I am extremely happy with the board. No complications at all. Sold the 2600k and bought a 2500k and overclocked it to 4.8 Ghz. Packaging came with anti static and cushion. Came with plentiful cables, wires, instructions, extra USB 3.0 card. The whole package should probably be worth $300... so the price of $200-250 is a very fair price.

I really like the super-charger usb port where it charges my iPhone up to 2x faster than normal usb. The spacing of the PCI slots are good. It allows me to SLI in the future and still have my wifi card in it. I would definitely recommend buying this motherboard if you can get it around $200. Well worth it!

ProsCons
USB super charger, easy to OC, nice layout.None
