MSI K8N Neo4-F 939 NVIDIA nForce4 ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Socket 939/PCI-E board at a bargain price.

Cons: None of note.

Overall Review: I bought this board to support a budget gaming rig with a mid-range PCI-E card and have not been disappointed. Everything worked fine straight out of the box, documentation was adequate, and I had no problems installing hardware or configuring the bios. Lots of room on the board, so things don't feel cramped. I'm not big into overclocking so I can't speak to that, but if you're looking for a stock board for a modern AMD system, it's hard to go wrong here.

Pros: lasted for 6 months, worked flawlessly until late december, excelent overclocking features as long as you stay within your limits, worked straight out of the box for my first build

Cons: in december i recieved frequent crashes i had figured it was the power supply but the fan for the northbridge chipset fried, it took me awhile to figure out what was the problem, luckily i have a case with a side window and i noticed that the chipset fan was no longer running, i replaced it with a zalman northbridge cooler which worked great for a few days until all my pci slots fried along with the motherboard accepting cd/dvd drives, which isnt all that great

Overall Review: ill RMA the mobo to MSI considering it has a 3 year warranty and see what the results are
