Pros: -Great overclocking, hit 1010/1500mhz using Sapphire TriXX (voltage control) -Cools great when using manual fan control -I was able to flash this to HD6970, unlocking the extra shaders -Excellent performer -Comes with DiRT3 :)

Cons: -None

Overall Review: I am a reviewer for a popular online website, and I was absolutely blown away by this card. Absolutely, positively one of the best HD6950s I've had my hands on. I can't speak for the entire population of these particular cards, but I know that this one overclocks to hell and back and was unlockable. Unlocking means that you can force flash this card with a bios from an HD6970 and go from 1408 shader cores to 1536. I saw about a 10% increase in performance on top of the wild overclocking I was able to achieve. Yeah, it's a little bit more expensive than other HD6950s but the price is well worth it if you plan on overclocking and attempting to flash the card.

Pros: Low cost 6x PCI-E slots Uses only one 4-pin auxiliary power connector (plus ATX of course)

Cons: I could not find an option in the BIOS to choose VGA preference. By that, I mean I am used to boards who lets you use onboard VGA even if there is a video card in one of the slots. This is wonderful for troubleshooting, but it would also clean up my setup.

Overall Review: I would have given this board 5 eggs if it weren't for not having an [obvious] option in the BIOS to force onboard VGA. Biostar, could you please add this into a BIOS update? I would have just bought another if I knew it did this.

Pros: Solid performer, overclocks well, good looks. Mushkin has had a long line of memory that proves well, and these sticks definitely stick to that trend. Seems to overclock well so far, but I haven't pushed it

Cons: None yet
