Advantages: Great Sound, 8 GB RAM Support, 1333 FSB support Disadvantages: Does not support Windows server 2000 and Red Hat Linux
I am using DG33FB motherboard from last 1 year. This is a great board having several features of a high end board in such a cheap price of £96.47. The board supports 8 GB of RAM and both core2 duo and quard processor. I am running this board with Intel E6750 and 2 GB of RAM having 800 MHz FSB. It's working amazing. Just I want to make you aware that it does not support Windows server 2000 and Red Hat Linux. The main pros and cons are. I am a computer programmer and I am using it as a workstation board.

Pros:
1. Excellent Board having all the features of a High end board.
2. Excellent Sound quality.
3. Good for use as workstation.
4. G33 Chipset of DG33FB make its good for multimedia ...
Advantages: Good stable board Disadvantages: Not many PCI slots

Advantages: HDTV output, supports AMDs Cool 'n' Quiet Disadvantages: Only one lan
The ASUS M2NPV-VM Motherboard for AMD single-core Athlon 64/ Sempron and Dual-core Athlon 64 X2/ Athlon FX processors using socket AM2 is very user friendly, I went with AMDs 64 x2 3800+ processor in the beginning then moved up to 4200+ 2Gb Ram without any hassle, very easy to setup and fits easily in a standard ATX case. A possible downside to the board is that it has a limited number of slots due to being a microATX sized board. That's not a big deal for me as the only two cards I'll be buying in the future is Graphics and a extra Lan card.
