ASUS's intention here was to bring a Radeon Xpress 3200 product into its AM2 lineup. They've done that, and they've made a functional, pretty well laid out board that performs overall how we'd like it to. However, in a number of areas the board appears to be less appealing than its Socket 939 predecessor. It's not got any real VRM cooling and it doesn't have as much internal hard disk connectivity. Further, its BIOS isn't (at the moment) as tweakable, making it slip behind the Sturgeon reference board. Cool 'n' Quiet problems continue to plague ASUS's AM2 boards too, it seems.
