Ok, so I let my bias show through a bit too much. For the money, you're much better served spending the little extra dough on a better-equipped board. But, yes, they are fine for what they are intended for, you are certainly right about that. I just don't consider them very good for a "gaming" rig, but for a "workstation", especially one that is to be produced en masse, they would do fine.
