Advantages: Quality and fast overclocking, great for games
Disadvantages: In the shadow of the Core 2 duo motherboards

...When purchasing my new computer i needed a motherboard that could handle the latest technology and compete with the latest releases. The ASUS M2N32-SLI motherboard fitted within my budget of one hundred pounds and offered a powerful tool for over clocking my components to keep my machine competing with the stresses of new programs and hardware. Fitting the motherboard and installing the other hardware was exactly the same as fitting other motherboards. The ASUS M2N32-SLI motherboard supports the AMD AM2 cpu and thus supports DDR2 ram, this meant that when recycling my old computer i was unable to use the cpu or the RAM and needed to purchase these items again. The passive cooling on the ASUS M2N32-SLI means that no fans are needed to cool the motherboard making it quiet. The motherboard comes with a optional fan which snaps onto... Read review

Advantages: Powerful, Future Proof, Useful Features.
Disadvantages: Can seem pricey compared to the basic cheaper motherboards, worth it though.

...I got this motherboard for my new pc and I have to say that it works like a dream - I’ve never really paid out more for a motherboard as I didn't see what difference it could make but since I’ve started learning more about pc's (with a view to possibly working in IT) I’ve realised that a decent motherboard is an important addition to a pc that runs well and without too many hitches. Features of the board are: - Quad-SLI Ready - Intel® Core™2 Extreme / Core™2 Duo Ready - Intel® Pentium® Extreme / Pentium® D / Pentium® 4 / Celeron® D Ready - NVIDIA nForce® 590 SLI™ Intel Edition - Dual-channel DDR2 800(OC) /667/533 - SupremeFX/ DTS Connect/ Array Mic/ Noise Filter - AI NOS™ / AI Gear / AI Nap - 8 Phase Power Design More information on the spec of this board is available here: http...

...Soccer AM is a Saturday morning show on Sky sports one every Saturday and it helps cover the English football leagues from the week before and what games are going to be played for the following week. It also has other features like about 3 different guests will come onto the show e.g. one could be an injured footballer, one could be a celebrity and another could be a few band members for a music group. Not only do they have guests and football highlights they also have 8 fans in from a certain football team and some of the crew members have their own part of the show like Tube's question. No this is a big hit on TV soothe first DVD, Soccer AM 1, was quite good so this DVD had good expectations. In Soccer AM 2 it is different to the normal show as they like to focus on a certain idea that do just another show but on a DVD so... Read review

...one solid motherboard up to 360 mhz buss speed! Durable, stable, full of features, iv got the am2 longer board version, but this one is basically the same. Has cooling features for the chip sets which is handy for overcloking and it increases life span too. has special power surge protection features on it. Stable bios realeases for newer cpus and has endless overcloking options in the bios. has special options to auto overclock when in demand when in windows, you can also set it to overclock automatically by upto 10% without you having to touch any other settings, it will set the correct voltages etc. you can also set the memory to lower speeds and then overclock the cpu as the RAM increases with cpu overclocks, this is useful for when your RAM holds you back on overclokcing or when your worried about pushing your RAM too much. i set...

Advantages: reasonable price, for quick and easy overclocking, and great performance
Disadvantages: it has a SODIMM switch, which perhaps isn't welcomed by everyone as its an old feature.

...The Abit Fatal1ty FP-IN9 SLI mother board is great start for anyone who wishes to puchurse a new motherboard, or perhaps start to build there own computer and just aren't quite sure what mother board to go for. Well i strongly recomend this product, its priced keenly and is focused almost exculsivly on forming the basis of a decent gaming rig. The reason that the board is so much cheaper than other LGA775 boards is that it uses the nForce 650i SLI chipset, rather than the top of the range 680i SLi thats seen on more expensive motherboards, but i wouldnt worry its still a great board to go with. Even though the board is brand new, theres a SODIMM switch between the two 8x PCI-E slots. This is used to manually set the board to single or dual graphics card mode, which is a fairly old idea, that perhaps more experienced gamers aren... Read review

Advantages: SLI. AMD64 bit goodness, DDR memory still used, Hypertransport, Hardware Firewall, Cable testing ports
Disadvantages: New PSU needed for 24 pin ATX and PCI-E power, BIOS updates required

...oops, I did it again with such a SAD title that half the readers of this small review on the newest Nvidia chipset based motherboard for the AMD64 socket 939 platform, have probably closed their browsers in disbelief. It was Just around the Christmas/New Year I decided that frankly my old XP3200+ based system could no longer cut the mustard so to speak, so off I went ( once I had been paid ) and bought nearly a complete system based around the Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe. As far as motherboards go, I only really like to use 2 of the well-known brands which are Abit and Asus. According to our Abit contact we have at work, would not have an SLI motherboard out for "quite a few months" I had only the Asus range to choose from. Now I was torn between a new PCI-E based platform or an older based AGP system - and I thought seeing as SLI... Read review
