MSI KA780G-F AM2+/AM2 AMD 780G HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great, clean layout. The perfect amount of connections with nice expandable options. PCI-e 2.0 capable.
Cons: The LAN driver didn't want to install, after some fiddling, got it to work. Could be due to the fact I run Vista x64.
Other Thoughts: I've been building computers since '95. I was ecstatic to se...

Decent Board No Problems
Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: 4GB Corsair, AMD 4850e, Antec Sonata III w/500w Earthwatts P/S. Worked out of the box. Sounds different than previous ASUS boards. Has a beep then a funny dual chirp (saying O.K.?) Temps, both board and CPU are very cool. Highest CPU I have seen is 33C and that was MS loading about 60 updates. System is extremely quiet. Just a slight whisper. ...

Very disappointed
Tech Level: high
Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Looks nice, reasonable price, Neweggs exceptional service
Cons: I've tried two of these boards (so far) and both have have had major problems. The onboard video went out on the first board as I was installing the operating system. I RMA'd the board (Newegg was great as usual). The replacement arrived today and upon test...

Good value - Nice build Quality AMD Mobo
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Full ATX board, feels durable. Fired it up with my componenets no problems at all. I used an add on graphics care (Radeon 4850), but if your looking for a system with an integrated graphics chip set, the 3200 offers decent video performance, and can even play older 3D games, and the on board Realtek HD audio solution aint too bad either. My sound...

Minor but fatally flawed
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Runs PII 940 & 8Gigs of 800 memory @1.8v just fine. Could use the Bios flashed to newest version so it would label the processor correctly. USE THE USB FLASH UTILITY FROM THE OWNERS FORUM, NOT THE LIVE UPDATE!!! Sorry for yelling, but it is THAT important!
Runs cool and stable....once I got it running. See Cons...

Cheap, capable
Tech Level: somewhat high
Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Bios is much more capable than what I expected. Has full voltage controls and was able to take advantage of the unlocked multiplier on my 9950 BE cpu like the 790GX boards. The bios reset buttons are much more convenient than the usual jumpers and I even got to make use of them after being dumb and leaving my ram voltage set to auto after bumping them up to s...
