Review on 🔥 High-Performance Intel Core 2 Quad ATX Motherboard: P43/DDR3/GbE - Retail BOXDP43BF by John Hall

Bought this board to extend the life of my C2Q 9550 and run it as a server. 5 SATA ports are useful for storage (no CD/DVD required after WHS '11 is installed). First I flashed the bios. The board came with 0079, then 0085, then 0088. Very easy to flash from a USB drive, the F7 command will find the right files even if they are in a folder. I'm using 16GB DDR3/1333 memory (4x4GB) which surprised me as all the reviews I've seen max out at 8GB (4x2GB). Using Corsair RAM (2x CMX8GX3M2A1333C9 kit), so it can be very difficult to solve this configuration. Overall I am very satisfied and look forward to using this board for many years to come.
