Does anyone know of any reviews on the M741LMRT all-in-one mobo with regard to performance?

Hello. I don't know of any reviews, but I can tell you that pcchips is very annoying. I have the M747 M/B and the support for it is terrible. It you're ever planning on overclocking don't get pcchips boards. As far as I know, they all only support 66 and 100 Mhz bus speeds. Although, it's a great board pricewise, and the onboard video and sound, etc. is good to have. It's your choice. If you're computer's for gaming, I don't suggest it since you're probably going to want a 3d accelerator and a good sounds card anyway.

BMF is pretty spot on. These are cheap, feature-full boards. I have built a few systems using these boards for colleagues who were after low-cost computing solutions. What the board lacks is speed, flexibility (66 and 100 bus only), spare slots, no AGP slot etc etc. It all depends on what you want out of your system. There are probably better less combo/more expandibility boards on the market.
P.S. This board comes with a LAN adapter. Whilst this could be a handy feature, from experience enabling it slows down the boot up time of your system considerably.
