MSI K9A2GM-FIH


$90.00 Released April, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Onboard video quality outperforms others at this price, suffices for all general use. BIOS offers straightforward overclocking menus. RAM slots are sufficiently spaced apart for heat spreads unlike many other budget boards.

The Cons:Some connection ports (VGA) seem flimsy and are temperamental when connecting. Only 4 SATA2 ports, compared to many others with 6 at this price. RAM overclocking not as stable as comparable boards with Intel processors.
