ASUS m4a88t-m motherboard

Hello all this is my first post on this forum. I have a question about the m4a88t-m motherboard (the one without USB3) Any thoughts on it? How long will this mobo be good for? It is a micro atx mobo and was wondering if there are any real disadvantages to this type of board other than perhaps not being able to SLI or Xfire. Thanks.

EDIT: I should state what I plan on putting in with it..
Rosewill challenger case
MSI Cyclone 460GTX 1gb
Corsair tx650w
G.Skill Ripjaws 4gb
Seagate 7200.12 750gb HDD
Some LiteOn DVD burner
AMD Phenom II x4 955 BE
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit

If you're asking about how long it will be good for (ie. care about long-term reliability) make sure and look for all-solid capacitors. Looks like this one has it from the pics on Newegg.

Note the 4-pin aux CPU connector. As long as it has the features you need (ie. you don't care about USB 3, SATA 6bps) can't complain about the price!
