MSI, i guess i could start off by saying thank you for not forgetting about us AGP guys.
i have this motherboard with 2gb OCZ gold edition ram
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 6000+ 3.0 GHz Processor
Ati Radeon sapphire X1950 pro 512 AGP8x
AC-1 Barracuda 7.1 gaming card
WD Caviar 7,500 rpm HD
Apevia custom case
Lite-on dvd burner W/ lightscribe
Let me start off by saying this mobo really takes a lot of time to get just right in the Bios, and especially running windows vista, it reads the memory incorrectly so you must do it manually, as well as set the right voltage, i had problems with the BSOD a lot of times till i got it all just right. After everything was working great i tried to over clock, a bit.
the mobo wouldnt OC to 202, everytime it would have a bsod on startup of windows, then the 2nd reboot would work fine, but if i left it at 200 all is well. doesnt really matter with this processor, it is very fast, i have been an intel guy forever, this was my first AMD setup, and i am

If you're looking for a cheap AM2 motherboard with onboard video and/or AGP, you've just found it. It only allows overclocking to 232 MHz FSB, but even this is more than you'd get from, say, ECS or with Intel's reference boards for P4. It has 5.1 sound on board as well, though I prefer a discrete sound card to onboard in almost all cases.
If you want to do high-end gaming, look elsewhere, as your video upgrade path will be crippled by the lack of PCIe. But if you're a light gamer or have a console for games, you may find the onboard video adequate. I installed a GeForce FX 5600 (which I already had, thus why I chose a board with AGP and not PCIe) just to get a DVI port because I don't like my video signal going digital-to-analog-to-digital unnecessarily, but the analog output is not half bad.
One of this board's strengths is that it has a little bit of everything -- PATA and SATA, support for 1 GB modules, support for dual core processors, and 8 USB ports (four in back and four sets of
