ASUS M2N68-AM SE2 AMD Motherboard

Comment:
I got exactly what I wanted and its doing grand as they say. Its a little light on the features, but I knew that going in. The board and CPU work together as a team, no hang-ups or overheating. Works the best of any I've had and you can't beat the price!

This is what I got after returning a garbage Gigabit board, boy am I happy. This is the 2nd ASUS I've owned, and it will definitely not be my last. My previous ASUS never gave me any problems. So I wanted to make sure I bought another ASUS that would give me the same reliability as before. Being that it was time to upgrade from AM2 to AM2+. For the price, this board gives is extraordinary. The limited expansion slots didn't bother me. That's why it was less expensive, duh??

I bought this as a second motherboard as a part of a "deal" - where I had purchased another "deal" earlier and the first one functioned for less than a week. It was easier to buy another "deal" and swap parts till you find the one that doesn't work - in this case the motherboard. This one seems to be working fine - and the deal was great - even though I had to buy two for one. It still makes it a reasonable solution.

Onboard graphics sdspter is a NVIDIA GeForce7025 using 512MB RAM which works well. Installed 2GB of Crucial DDR2 memory. Lacked a spare IDE (PATA) channel for DVD/CD. It has 2 SATA channels. I installed a StarTech PCI-E adapter to accommodate the DVD plus my existing IDE hard drive.

All the bang for your buck. I bought this as part of a barebones with a amd quadcore, 2g ram and a case- works great... power connectors barely reach the pins on the board- but other than that, just make sure you dont screw it to the chasse to tight, or else you'll get the usb short error.

Got the board from a bare bones kit. After an embarassing call to ASUS (forgot to load the DVD BIOS) works great. Took forever to figure out have to hit DEL during POST to get to BIOS.I have every thing set to factory execpt the AMD cool and quiet which dropped the idle temp from 97degress to 88 degres

I got this board as part of a bundle. It was easy to set up and make the connections. Have only had it running a few days and so far no issues. Can hardly wait to put it under a heavy load and see how it responds. The only drawback I see is that it only has 2 sata connections, a PCI, PCI2e (?), and PCIe ports. I am accustomed to having several add ons and multiple hard drives. It requires a little imagination to figure out how to use some of my other hardware with this board.

I purchased this MB in a barebones kit. I have been using it for almost a week and am really impressed with it. No problems. Great value for the price.

Asus has always made great Boards. This one really rocks. Not to mention it was a great deal

This is not a high end motherboard. It is a great motherboard for building a very inexpensive system for your kids or for any word processing type software. This does not have many of the extended slots you might want for a really high end system but it does support socket am2 and 2+. Need to make sure you flash your bios to latest revision. It will get you much more functionality out of the board.

If you have a limited budget then this board is for you. While it does not have all the bells and whistles of higher end boards it does have all you need to complete a super system. The video memory is what really stands out on this board 512MB on board hey that alright to me. EZ BIOS that works too. I LOVE ASUS.

runs windows 7 without a hitch

Worked first startup. Bought it in a combo with an AMD 5800+ Duo Core. There is a simple setting that will overclock your processor for you up to 7% just by selecting it (i'm running at 3.21G). Great board.

These people are doing good business. The delivery was on time and their prices are unbeatable. What else can you expect!

Built a budget rig from this mobo, no issues so far. Ubuntu 9.04, 2GB DDR2, 2.6Ghz Dual core. No issues with any drivers. Only includes one SATA cable so ensure that you have another if you plan to run all SATA hardware!

Board came in Kit - works great for a basic computer set up. Limitted features.

Got this as a barebones kit, went together easy. Nice board if you don't require to many extras. Luckily, the people I built this for didn't!

Great Mobo and an easy install. The only things I wish it has was greater ram capacity and more sata heads, not really a problem for me just that I swallowed up my ide connections with two older Hd's and then only had two satas to support my larger hd and dvd drive.

Comment:
The 1st board received had a defective IDE controller. The 2nd board received had a damaged component. Overall, the retail support was very pleasant to deal with and the exchange process was smooth. This board is decent for a budget system.
