The DX48BT2 was easy to set up and use. The area around the CPU was conducive for using an after-market CPU cooler. The system booted up with the QX9770 CPU right away without issue as the CPU was detected correctly right off the bat. The performance of the board is great as the board scores within a couple of points of the fastest X48 board at default settings.
