Comments about ASUS M5A97 AMD 970 CrossFireX Socket AM3+ ATX Motherboard w/Audio, GbLAN & RAID:
I use this as my web browsing, picture editing, video editing computer. I am not a gamer but this is a mid to high end board so I believe it could also be used for gaming. It came with the back plate, 2 SATA cables, driver disk, and manual. If it wasn't in a white box I would have taken it as new. The only thing wrong was the Noth Bridge heat sink was loose. This was easily taken care of by reinserting the mounting pin.
