The best Haswell board for all who do not want to overclock.

+ Improved onboard sound ("new" Realtek ALC 1150 codec, as "Purity Sound" markets) than most MBs, of course does not come to Sound Blaster / Xonar etc. Ran!
+ Intel LAN: MMN really better than my old Realtek LAN from MSI 870A - G54
+ A lot of the "back door" possible and yet not himself tried with a H87 chipset, but have it OC
+ Many connectors for fans, front USB etc.
+ Sata connections are reasonably priced at "motherboard edge". Thus, they are not covered by about excessively long graphics cards or even blocked
+ So far everything stable and no crashes, etc.
+ Quite pleasing brown and red as a contrasting color for some slots
+ Sufficient number of SATA unions
+ Simple click BIOS / UEFI

- Big heat sink next to the socket interfere with the installation of CPU cooler
- 2 PCIe X16 only 4x connected (not a full Amd Crossfire, NVIDIA SLI is not anyway -> chipset limitation)
- Sparse delivery (2 SATA cables, manuals, driver CD, license for 3 months streaming software and ATX panel), but "normal" for this price range

The motherboard serves as a base for an I7 4770 with EKL chunks II and a VTX3D HD 7950 X Edition V3 Boost. Windows 8 and Cinebench Index jewweils ~ 8.1.

2) Conclusion:

The perfect motherboard for those who do not want to overclock and therefore suitable for all non-K Desktop Haswells (4670, 4770 etc.), since Intel has "turbo steps" known from Ivy Bridge banned! Who can do without the first two postiven aspects (onboard sound and Intel LAN), saves again ~ 15-20 for a cheaper H87 MB (Asrock H87 Pro4 or comparable MSI / Asus / Gigabyte).
