MSI 790FX-GD70 amd 790fx

Strengths: well made, reliable, worked on 1st boot up without having to make any changes in BIOS, excellent layout, no noisy chipset fan, excellent heat pipe cooling system for heat sink

Weakness: the only weakness is in the 90 degree placement of the SATA and IDE connectors as they can be hard to connect to depending on the PC case design. no other complaint

Excellent high end motheboard, reliable, well layed out, loaded with features, well layed out BIOS and excellent overall motherboard. Has excellent energy saving features. Has nice addtions such as beeing able to save mutiple BIOS settings, able to easily reset setting by pressing a button on motherbaod in case a setting does not work. The features are endless
