Of course, the cost is such for the brand and quality, in order to achieve the declared speed you will need at least a modern motherboard with SATA 3, and since I have an ancient PC and motherboard with another 775 socket (ASROCK G41M-S3 with a Q8200 processor and ddr3 4 Gb memory works at a speed of 1066 Mz without forced acceleration, GeForse GT710 2Gb video card), then you should not look for fabulous results here. Acquired because of a guarantee of 60 months and reputable manufacturers and, importantly, the experience of an IT specialist friend. And so this carrier breathed a spark of life into the dinosaur. Loading flies, pages in the browser just fly, though only when the provider allows. And in games, the vidyuha and the processor are holding (would the Q9650 be completely different, since the memory would have reached all its capabilities on this motherboard at 1333 Mz), but that's a completely different story
I've included some photos to provide a more holistic perspective on my review.
