good or bad motherboard ? it mine got a corrupt bios chip but i ordered one already but is it a good board?

DFI while currently out of business was renowned for making really great products, exceptional even. It should serve you well, just do not expect any drivers past windows 7 they likely can not be found unless made by outside sources which I generally wouldn't trust to pick up my garbage.

the 1366 is a bit long in the toot but depends on your usage, it's my wife computer.

LoL that made me laugh Alain. The wife thing I mean, almost as much "the 1366 is a bit long in the toot" which appears to be spelled as it would be pronounced by a french guy with the name Alain Auclair. No offense meant I am french myself which is why I had a chuckle.

ok thanks guys am using it for gaming nothing else it can still do it pretty well and not in to overlocking and all that just want nice gaming what i have is a xeon w3520 gpu is msi r9 270 2gb gaming 4gb ddr3 i will change that to at least 6gb

Oh eyah you wll do just fine, You might as well sell the ram you have and pick up a 6 or a 12Gb set. I disagree that the system is too old. With that dfi motherboard you should find overclocking any supported chip on that motherboard quite easily.

oh thanks but not even a i7 920 i could've bought so the xeon is fine i used it on asus x58 board the gaming performs from my althon ii x4 645 are totally different especially on gta v i had to overclock my amd to 3.5 ghz to play most of my games and i still got lag but not now
