Great motherboard!,
I bought this board to use in a DVR computer system that I had built. So far, I’ve had no problems. I mounted the board to the case, installed the processor (Intel Pentium Dual-Core E5300) and installed everything else. The motherboard works great with SD and HD videos and movies. The board doesn’t get hot and the power saving features this motherboard includes is nice to have.
Great motherboard for the price and performance!
UPDATE 2/26/11:
To date, I’ve bought six of these motherboards and have had no problems whatsoever. These boards are simply amazing. MSI boards are one of the most reliable brands I’ve come across aside from Intel (who also makes pretty good boards). Here’s a quick run down of what I use the boards for:
-mini database server
-DVR computer system
-personal desktop (home premium computing)
-a standard gaming system
Someone stated that these boards are temperature sensitive, but I’ve never seen any problems with that. These boards are simple to install and use and are priced pretty reasonable.

Replacement Motherboard,
I used this motherboard to replace the system board in a HP A6009F computer. It was a direct plug in replacement and worked very well. The drivers installed without a hitch and the system was very fast upon completion. I would recommend this board.

Great mobo,
I have to say im impressed with this board so far. Granted, I’ve only had it for a short time, but so far overclocking on it has been a breeze. Bumped up a e7400 to 3.5ghz easily. Very well laid out bios. The board itself is well laid out, all the connectors are on the right side of the board, making it easier to work with in cramped spaces. Also, its red. So sexy.
