Excellent overall
Strengths: Great price to performance ratio, has almost all needed features
Weakness: None in perticular
Like all motherboards from MSI, this one too is great performer when considered the price tag it carries. I have been using this with Intel E6300 for 4 months, and yet i haven't found any serious issues. Actually this is a descent entry level combo for core 2 duo.

bad choice!
Weakness: the jmicron chip causes terrible CD/DVD stutters (do a search on google and see!)
i wish i could get my money back!
