Its actually going into a computer I am building for my brother this weekend. First off when you order one ask where ever you get it from to cover the top of the box the boards is in with a foam before putting it in a Fed Ex box. The board comes in plastic shell, but the plastic is soft and and can easily be pushed down on the board's parallel port and etc in that section because it is a cut out of the cardboard there. The board arrived in perfect shape though but I think it would be wise to cover the top because of the cut outs of the box.
This board is very Asus like in its build. Flat out high quality. This one has no thermal grease on the northbridge so you should apply some. It is a big board as well. Seems to be ample room around the socket. And guess what here's a nice addition it ships with Pc-cillin 2000 one of the best virus programs available, not Norton's tired virus program. Manual is very thorough on the board. Also the metal arm is not raised like you see so many of them. Well I'll be firing this bad boy up this weekend and I'll post some info. But from a pure quality stand point its as good as Asus or Aopen and thats saying a lot.
