I purchased this motherboard as a cheap upgrade to my existing livingroom HTPC which was AMD based and not capable of bitstreaming DTS-MA HD and Dolby True-HD over HDMI. I was attracted by the price, support for Sandy Bridge processors, HDMI and no frills like USB3.0 and SATA III which I did not want to pay extra for and not use.It was easy to setup, even more so since I also own the very good mini-ITX version and I am familiar with the driver CD. The motherboard is very well laid-out and almost spacious. I've always liked the ASUS blue color scheme (yes, even though it's hidden away in a case, I liked it). All the video options are covered: VGA, DVI and HDMI. This would make a very good inexpensive desktop board. The included driver disk is necessary and it tries to install some bloatware but if the InstallAll option is selected, on the next screen it's possible to opt-out of things like Norton. There are only 2 USB headers so I have front USB ports that I cannot hook up now -- something I should have research better. Also, like the mini-ITX, there is no way to keep the power LED from blinking when in S3 sleep. That's not so great for an HTPC.The biggest problem I've had with this board is that with using the HDMI port, necessary in my home theater setup (only HDMI supports the HD audio bitstreams), I cannot upgrade the Intel HD video driver past the version downloaded from the ASUS website. Except for the most recent version from the Intel website, which sticks at 1024x768 no matter what, the Intel driver install BSODs and so do subsequent reboots. I am able to recover by booting into safe mode and reinstalling the driver from the ASUS website. Users of other brand boards I've talked to (usually Intel) are not having this issue and some searching via Google shows this to be a common complaint when using HDMI. My desire to update the video driver is driven by poor deinterlacing performance watching Live TV, especially NFL Football. My ultimate solution has been to put my HIS HD5670 card back in. If you don't need HDMI support then this will likely not be an issue for you. It's something to be aware of for HTPC builders. I am going to keep taking BIOS updates and trying the Intel HD driver updates hoping at some point this will get fixed. Maybe ASUS will release an updated video driver.Pros:No issues with install.UEFI bios is nice.Board is simple and well laid out.Excellent price.No frills.Cons:Intel video HD driver issues using HDMIOnly two USB headers.No way to disable blinking power LED in sleepASUS driver CD wants to install Norton and some other bloatware (just use InstallAll and then it'll let you unselect them)Setup:ASUS H61 moboi3-2100 CPUMicroCenter 64GB SSDWD 40GB SATA drive (Recorded TV buffer)1 x 2GB DDR3 1333 RAMLite-On Bluray ODDAntec EA380D PSUnMediaPC 1000b case w/ LCDHauppauge Win-TV 1250 tuner card

Owned this motherboard for couple months now. Here is what I have to say about it.Pro* A quality motherboard. ASUS did not cheapen out on construction quality.* Quality BIOS/UEFI. Simply the best UEFI interface I have used.* Good slot and rear I/O layout.* Comprehensive manual.Con* Not color coded I/O shielded. It does not look nice.* Not priced competitively.Overall score: 5/5I do recommend you check out on other H61 motherboard. This board is really good, but pricy.
