| Manual and Labeling |
++ Well readable, complete motherboard inscription and except the missing BIOS section it’s a detailed motherboard manual in different languages e.g. German, English, etc. Easy devaluation of the manual, because the BIOS is explained only in the manual on the CDROM, but in my opinion this doesn’t help if we’re in the BIOS ! |
