i am a fan of these asus boards, but one thing i am not a fan of asus doing is those cheap front panel connector things, to bring all the wires together, they are such low quality my switch didnt even work when it connected via that but did once it was removed, but hey i dont think that condemns the board much, i love the workstation boards

This is my first WS board and I've gotta say, it impressed me. It's a workhorse workstation, but can OC with gusto.
