H61C MOTHERBOARD

Helped me revive my old build. This is of course one of the most basic boards on the market, but it’s cheap and reliable!

Pros: NONE! Cons: Dead On Arrival! Tried 3 NEW power supplies, 12 sticks of RAM, 4 Different intel CPU's all of which are liested as supported by the board, 3 CMOS NEW batteries, reset CMOS, and absolutely nothing except the CPU fan spun up. No signal on 3 different monitors from VGA or HDMI, NOTHING! Dead, completely DEAD! Machinist was zero help for drivers or a manual, responded on driver question with a link to a questionable site selling a subscription to a no name and not trustworthy driver updater, very unprofessional! Conclusion: I have been building PC's as a qualified tech for 37 years and I actally know what I am doing and how to properly test hardware, si I know a Dead Motherboard when I encounter one. I am returning this useless piece of junk the day after I recieved it for a full refund, and I only wish I could charge Machinest for my wasted time as well as tying up my hard earned money whilst I wait for the return process to complete! I will never, ever buy a Machinest product again! I don't believe this motherboard was ever tested, or that it passed quality control as stated all over the box! Stay away from their products as they offer zero support and seem rather shady!

Worked excellent for me. Right out of the box. It is compatible with modern GPUs, also had USB 3.0 which was a nice surprise. It’s extremely simple to install, no manual needed if you have ever installed another mobo. If you are confused about what pins are what for the front panel just take a picture and ask ChatGPT. Stress tested it and no issue there either. Excellent budget build option and I will buy another in the future.

Very affordable and worked fine to put a budget pc together out of old parts.

The item came in its own box, some notable features are: a 24 pin slot, 3 Sata-2 ports, a 4 pin motherboard port, a four pin CPU fan port, a PCIE slot, and two ram slots. it's a good budget board. It did not come dead on arrival for me and it works perfectly with the case I'm using it also has a VGA, HDMI, and ethernet port. The bios is a little outdated, but that's to be expected with a Chinese cheap motherboard. You really are getting what you're paying for no less and no more. Another thing to note is that it does NOT come with its own battery, make sure to get one from your local store!

-5 stars, only 1 memory slot works, I'm being told Amazon only handles return, so I go to return it and they want a picture of the defective slot to determine if it defective or not, last I checked its extremely hard to see if a memory slot works or not from a picture

A good item and price.

Worked beautifully
