Pros: strong mobo, great price for G34 and SUPERMICRO. Solid server brand, makes an awesome workstation. Worked great with Ubuntyu 10.10 GNU/Linux.i used 2x of KVR1333D3D4R9S/4G as RAM. registered ECC and works without errors. stableCons: looks ugly green, but i expected that from any server boardstrong mobo, great price for G34 and SUPERMICRO.

Pros: 2 ON BOARD USB PORTS!
PLENTY MEMORY AND ADD-ON CARD SLOTS FOR EXPANSION..
WORKED FLAWLESSLY WITH MY 8 CORE CPU.
6 SATA CONNECTIONS
INSTALLED N BOOTED NO PROBLEM!Cons: NOOOO FLOPPY DISK CONNECTION!!! (RAID CONTROLLER DRIVER REQUIRES DISKETTE)!!!!
U MUST ATTACH AND G34 SOCKET FAN ATTACHMENT.
HARD TO FIND PWR, RESET, HDD LED, PWR LED, CONNECTIONS WITHOUT THE MANUAL!2 ON BOARD USB PORTS!

Pros: Just read the specs. G34 socket ... 2 x8 slots ... 1 x16 slot ... dual Intel nics ... IPMI ... 128GB ram ... 2 internal USB sockets ... all on a standard ATX footprint. All pro's.Cons: None. I did, however, combine a Dynatron CPU cooler (N82E16835114113) with a Nexus fan adapter (N82E16811996022) and a 4-pin 120mm fan --- just use the existing Dynatron fan to map drill holes onto the adapter --- to increase cooling and decrease noise. The PCI-e x16 slot is overlapped by the 120mm fan in this configuration, rendering it useless. But this is a server, and the loss of a high-speed graphics slot was acceptable for the payoff of silence. With two x8 slots available, this was not a problem for me.Just read the specs.

Pros: The feature set is solid. Especially Lights out Management.
Good way to get a 8 or 12 way box.Cons: I have been through two motherboards were the IPMI (lights out management) is failing. System shows the BMC as failed and the settings are ghosted in BIOS. It doens't reflect it BIOS version any longer and you can not relash even from a bootable USB stick. This is not a good sign for SuperMicro. Using this with their 743 SATA chassis and 645 watt PSU. They replaced the first one over night at least.The feature set is solid. Especially Lights out Management.

Used to Super, Tyan, MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte, etc...This is scary coming from a manufacturer in the server space
