Most Critical Review

Day Late, Dollar Short

XFX MIA78S8209 AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 8200 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard
XFX MIA78S8209 AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA GeForce 8200 HDMI Micro ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: Awesome motherboard for the short time I was able to use it. 4 slots for DDR2 1066 ram is sweet. Decent layout, I like how the ram is above the cpu as opposed to next to it. Nifty heatpipe northbridge cooler.

Cons: Lack of 125-watt cpu support. Big video cards will block the usb headers. Check my other thoughts.

Overall Review: Xfx and newegg failed to mention that the motherboard only supports phenoms up to 95-watts. (They snuck this in after I had bought and registered the motherboard) I was running a beautiful rig with a 9850 Black Edition phenom, for about a month. The other day I heard a popping noise followed by profuse smoke coming from the motherboard. Its fried, working with xfx for an rma. Having a dang hard time finding a replacement worthy of my standards.

AWESOME

SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 11188-22-20G
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 6950 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 11188-22-20G

Pros: Eats everything I've thrown at it 1680x1050. Battlefield 3 - Maxed, Diablo III - Maxed. Dirt 3 - Maxed. Runs cooler and quieter than my old 9800GTX. Beats my friends 560Ti 2gb OC hands down and was $50 cheaper.

Cons: Radeon drivers are more difficult to manage than nVidias, but still manageable.

Overall Review: Now I need to get a 1080 monitor.

Best Bang for the Buck

OCZ SLI-Ready Edition 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2N1066SR2GK
OCZ SLI-Ready Edition 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model OCZ2N1066SR2GK

Pros: 2 gigz of ram that run exactly as advertised.

Cons: Whats with this SLI branding?

Overall Review: You don't need to be running dual video card system to benefit from this ram. Its a marketing scheme to get all those nvidia sli fanboys to buy this ram. I don't blame them, this stuff rocks, sli or not.
