Two things I don't like about this board, other than that Asus rocks!
1. I have the A7V133.. I like the 4 IDE ports built into it (although for some reason I have a a hard time using the ones on the promise controller..having some serious CD burning problems.. will have to try again soon....)
2. I like the A7V133 with all of the capacitors on the daughterboard, not directly on the mainboard. There are way too many capacitors near the socket, and someone with not-so-nimble fingers could find themselves killing their mobo because they are trying to put an HSF like the VolcanoII and it's #@(*$&#@(*$&#@ retention clip from heck on it.. that would be sad..
Other than those two little quirks, I love Asus. I've own a P3V4X and the A7V133, and loved them both..
cheers,
