I would say NO! I bought this board and I've had nothing but problems
with it. I couldn't get the 32 bit Win XP to load. Then when I tried a
64 bit version of XP then PC was very unstable. Then to make matters
worse Abit doesn't list the board on it's website. Spend the extra
money and buy a better baord.

I don't know about the reliability of the board, but it is indeed listed
on their site:
