Whats really funny is it is on listed anywhere on Asus's website, but I needed a mobo to replace my failing one and this works really great. HD sound on board Video, not a bad price, and if you dont know will fit in a standard ATX case.

They dont normally come with anything at all. But sometimes you do get lucky and they come with everything but thats only happened to me once or twice. Still though $15 for it (dont really need a back plate to make it work) is a hell of a deal.

When its sitting on the desk or in a hole in the desk pointing at the wall, who is to see the back of your puter and go "OH MY GOD YOUR BACK PLATE IS MIsSING AND IT LOOKS LIKE SH!T!"

Been buying used and refurb mobos for years, only a few of mine have back plates, no biggie for me, who really sees the back of the computer anyways and will really see a missing plate, besides I saved a lot of money by switching my car insurance over to Geico

ati chipset is fast. onboard video-which i have had to use when main card out- is about as fast as a geforce3 if u use dual channel memory setup
