A Thing of Beauty
By Pyanfar Chanur
TWO IMPORTANT NOTES:1) If you're doing a clean rebuild of your Area-51, do NOT use the AlienFX and other utilities that came on the recovery discs. Download the latest version of the software from the website and use that. You will see from the forums that using the original can cause you serious problems with the AlienFX board.2) My Area-51 ALX had Windows 8 Pro on it and had to be rolled back because after a while it became unable to POST. I believe this issue has to do with the BIOS and because it was a serious showstopper (couldn't boot without resetting default BIOS, removing battery, and leaving unplugged to flush non-volatile settings) I had to roll my Area-51 ALX back to Windows 7.Motherboards have moved on to third-generation Core i7 processors, but if you're wanting a great piece of first-gen Core hardware or need to replace the motherboard in your Area-51 ALX circa 2010/2011, this is the one. What you're seeing here isn't the greatest of motherboards ever, but it is some VERY good hardware, for the following reasons:1) the tray shown underneath this motherboard fits it perfectly into the Area-51 case, a monster of a PC case that, when full, can weigh over 100 pounds.2) there are sockets on the motherboard to enable communication with the AlienFX hardware, Alienware's proprietary daughter board that controls the colorful lightshow in six zones on the case3) The black rectangle you see near the RAM and next to the power connector is an easy-to-use wiring channel that lets all your key cables travel up in a neat tied bundle: it's a minor detail, but one I really appreciated when I first cracked the case of my Area-51 ALX.4) Support for a liquid-cooled system, preferably the Active Venting driven one that runs across the top of the Alienware case. That also means this motherboard is intended for a system with its power supply on the bottom of the case (and I recommend the 1.1MW or 1.2MW if you're going to be overclocking and/or have SLi).The slots are triple-channel RAM, and probably my only regret with this system is that the motherboard only supports 12GB of RAM. Triple-channel is of course faster than dual-channel, but I'd rather have had the overhead of more RAM than the throughput of a separate third channel (just my preference). The integrated audio sounds great, including optical and 6-channel Analog outs. I'd considered a dedicated sound card but I'm starting to think that's not really the big deal it used to be, and I'd rather not give up a lane for an Audigy: I want the full throughput of my SLi configuration. And speaking of SLi, the motherboard supports up to 3-way SLi.If you're buying this to replace an out-of-warranty Alienware desktop that meets these specs, you should have no problem. If you're running the Intel eXtreme Edition processors, the BIOS has settings that support both processor overclocking and RAM (if you're using XMP-capable RAM). I've found the built-in Intel supported overclocking profiles to be very stable, even the top-drawer one. I love this hardware and plan on keeping my machine as-is for quite a while longer.

awesome mobo for 1366.
By cokabear
This mobo works great for my 1366 I7 920. the product has allot of features you would expect in a mobo double the price. the only gripe I have is that on start-up, it takes a bit. In the description amazon gives it does not state all the supported cpus. it also supports the I7 920, I7 (xeon) 930, pretty much every normal 1366 I7.
