| Manual and Labeling |
++ Complete and well placed motherboard description and good manual. Except for the often-mentioned missing BIOS section, it’s a detailed manual in different languages Small devaluation of the manual, because the BIOS is explained only in the PDF manual on the CDROM, which doesn’t help if you are in the BIOS. Additionally an IES- and an Instant Boot quick reference guide were included. |
