Hi Guys,
This is the first time I'm building up my own PC. If anyone owns/used/knows about the ASUS M3A, I would like your views & inputs about it. Cant find any full reviews of it on the web.
Also have heard that Asus boards tend to burn out, so what cooling required ?
Thanks for reading :)

I just bought one last night, and so far so good. I've read around that it only runs low watt CPUs without fear of burnout (I'm on a 5000+ BE oc'd to 3.2 with no problems yet, but it's been a day).

But I picked it up for 90 bucks and yeah. So far so good.

Cool, I've just place an order for mine, cant wait for it to come :D
I'll be using a AMD 64 X2 4200++ (65W), so hope there'll be no issues. What SMPS power are u using?
