This is an older board but I knew that when I purchased it. I was happy with the speed of shipping and the board is working well. The only thing that mars my happiness with this product is something I did not think to ask about. It did not come with the heatsink mounting bracket. Again, I am not unhappy with the seller, just unhappy with myself for not thinking to ask.

I purchased 2 of the Asus P5E-VM DO Motherboard due in part that they were mATX (Micro ATX) to install them into mATX towers which I already had, The one thing I really loved about these boards were the ability to handle many different types of Intel CPU's 1333 Mhz/1066 MHz/800 MHz FSB (Front Side Bus) and would handle DDR2 1066/800/667 memory, plus this board had rear onboard I/O feature like; IEEE 1394 Firewire Port/4 x USB Port/RJ45 Ethernet Port/Parallel Port/Serial Port/PS2 Mouse Port/PS2 Keyboard Port/VGA Port/8 Channel I/O Port, I really Loved these boards until I installed them and couldn't get the Optical Drives to work, I tried to update the Bios, 5 Optical dives wouldn't work, I tried 3 types of IDE 80 conductor cables, I tried and Intel Pentium D 920 / Intel P4 640 3.2 GHz / Intel P4 660 3.6 GHz, I even called Asus Tech Support and they assured me that the Red Colored IDER Port on the motherboard would support optical drives, I also tried setting the jumpers on both optical drives to CS (Cable Select) and then tried 1 to Master and the other to Slave but they just wouldn't show up in the Bios. So I connected an HDD (Hard Drive) which I had Windows XP Pro Media Center Edition 32bit and it worked, the system recognized the Optical Drives & I then was able to install all the drivers for the motherboard but when I experimented by formatting the HDD, then tried to re-install the OS (Operating system, the optical drives again weren't detected in the Bios. In short: I don't understand why Asus made the IDE port Red (IDER) when on other Asus boards IDE ports are Blue and the manual for this board says that it can handle ultra dma 133/100/66 for up to 2 PATA Devices. I really think these board are great but only if I or you could install optical CD / CD-RW / DVD / DRD-RW Drives that could be "DETECTED" in the Bios..Read full review

The board has everything anyone could want, 4 Mem sockets of 2G ea. PCIe16, pcie1 came with a very good H/S and Fan and Proc. Granted, I upgraded the Proc, but didn't have too. Plenty of USB and SATA. Just great. David
