Is this board a good board

heres the board off of newegg is this a goodd board

Most of the reviews say so. The Delta-L is basically a stripped-down version of this board and I've used it to build 7 systems in the last 3 months and they're all flawless.

Right. It's a middle of the road board as far as overclocking is concerned due to the vcore limitation. You can see from my sig, however, that it can do a fairly respectable oc nontheless. The board is rock-solid stable at these settings, BTW;

In terms of the modded bios, Stvwndr219e, I really don't know. The very idea of a modded bios kinda gives me the heebe jeebies; I'd hate to waste an otherwise perfectly good motherboard...
