Mucho Bang, Mucho Bucks, Mucho Headaches

Strengths: Everything but the kitchen sink! Aesthetically pleasing layout, external LCD POST information, on-board switches, back-panel CMOS reset switch, easy overclocking

Weakness: Chipset too young for stable use - this is a hobbyist product only; price; built-in liquid cooler leaks; 8GB support is hit-or-miss

I bought this board having read glowing reviews from well-known sites like AnandTech, but it wasn't stable for me until the 5/13/08 posting of the finished 0512 BIOS on Asus's site (and now, there are newer ones available).

Strengths: Easy Configuration. Looks good. Supports Liquid cooling.

Weakness: Perhaps not enough PCI Expansion if you use SLI and internal USB I/O connectors. Price, but I doubt anyone would use all of it.

I think the MB is power sensitive, which can be good/bad. I have fast boot-up times. A few glitches here and there on my first two days when I'm trying all sorts of configurations. Afterwards...sweet!
