I have this board for a year. While a report irrprochable but what price a few default: a boot not instantaneous (comprhensible since there is no shock). Unlike other tmoignages, I had a lot of problem with the cd-r: ca jumps often (as well say that one must have a good trs CD and prfrer easy cd creator nero). t if I have to return them because one of the two players did not work well: it does not load the cd (the error screen displayed) and / or put a time to consider the standard cd (very boring evening when we forget prparer as an advance ...). Apart from that what makes the thing about platinum is the width of the jog (other brands were offering jog much smaller, but the trend to larger jog happens ...)
