It's good because not only is it fast, but it has built in sound and 10/100 network, yet still has 5 pci slots, 1amr, and 1agp (unlike other integrated boards, there are plenty of slots). All of this for only $65 or so dollars! It supports up to 1.4Ghz so far, and has both PC100/PC133 ram pieces as well as DDR ram! For a non overclocker, this is an excellent value.
