MSI K8N NEO2-Platinum Desktop Motherboard - nVIDIA...Strengths: Fast chipset - Bios adjustments - Memory placement - SATA controllers Weakness: CMOS jumper placement - Core Cell software - MSI site navigation - On Board audio First let me touch on it strengths.... The Nforce3 is a must have for any 8x AGP video card, it just lets it all rev out. The bios is a joy to work with and I would recommend all overclocking thru that...not software based OC'ing. The memory placement is wonderful sitting under my Thermalright XP-90 and is getting a little extra air movement on it. Cool is Cool right. 4 SATA connections have...

MSI K8N NEO2-Platinum Desktop Motherboard - nVIDIA...Strengths: Top overclocking board, sports the nForce 3 Ultra chipset, excellent layout. Weakness: The board is a little buggy for me at first and i had to do a little troubleshooting to get it working from stock settings. The Northbridge fan is located too close to the AGP slot. If your looking for an Athlon 64 socket 939 motherboard then this is the board you want. Its the best overclocking s939 AGP board and is one of the best performers at stock settings. The layout was very well planned and i like how the DIMM slots were placed at the top of the board. The board bundle comes with everything you need to get started which includes 2 SATA cables, 1 IDE cable, and 1...

MSI K8N NEO2-Platinum Desktop Motherboard - nVIDIA...Strengths: This motherboard is very stable and works very well with the AMD 3500 Winchester (newer than the Newcastle) CPU with the PNY Nvidia 5500 video Card and a total of 1GB of Kensington Memory. Weakness: I could not get the additional USB to work as stated thus far. I wish the labeling on the motherboard for some components were better (had to read schematic a few times). With 2 -> (512MB PC 3200 DDR 400) or 1GB, this motherboard with the CPU unit is blazing fast with amazing stablity. This is definately a great gamer combo. Everything installs perfectly on this motherboard. But the video card fan from the Video on the AGP slot is too close o the PCI next to it. Therefore, I have one less PCI available. But there are 4 others left to use.

MSI K8N NEO2-Platinum Desktop Motherboard - nVIDIA...Strengths: This is a well rounded Socket 939 motherboard for the AMD procesor. I was always an Asus user now MSI has wond me over. Weakness: N/A I use my MSI K8N Neo2 Platinum with a 90nm Sckt. 939 3500+ AMD Athlon 64 processor. It overclocks very well. Has a great BIOS to controll the voltages and multipliers. I can easily run my 3500+ at 2600MgHz with the Thermalright XP 120 CPU cooler and 120mm fan running at 2200rpm. At 41 degrees centigrade.

MSI K8N NEO2-Platinum Desktop Motherboard - nVIDIA...Strengths: Top of the line motherboard for the 939 socket AMD 64 CPU's. *It can handle up to 4 SATA's *Dual LAN ports *7.1 Sound *Easy to overclock *Built in firewall There is a great product! Weakness: Some people have issues with the chip overheating because of the fan not having good thermal compound, but I have not experienced this yet (since I just ordered). If you want a top of the line motherboard and do not care to wait around for PCI Express which will most likely be buggy at first anyways, go for this board! It should last you a good 2 to 3 years. Also, it is one of the highest recommended motherboards and has received many awards from popular reviewers.

MSI K8N NEO2-Platinum Desktop Motherboard - nVIDIA...Strengths: Handles the AMD64 processor beautifully. Weakness: Have to choose the memory you use wisely. Compatibility issues with certain ones. All in all this board is great. It has all the features needed to bring the AMD64 processor to the forefront of the newest pc technology. For after all...Isn't a processor only as good as the motherboard it sits in?

MSI K8N NEO2-Platinum Desktop Motherboard - nVIDIA...Strengths: One of the best boards out there. Many solid features. Weakness: Haven't had any problems yet, but have heard through research that there has been a couple of memory compatiblity issues. This board seems to be one one of the most solid boards for the 939 chipset for the Athlon 64 processors. The NForce 3 Ultra chip is really good.

MSI K8N NEO2-Platinum Desktop Motherboard - nVIDIA...Strengths: NVIDIA nForce3 ULTRA Chipset Motherboard better and faster than VIA Kt800 Weakness: none Just received this board today and after having 3 defective boards (2 From Giga-Byte 1 from ASUS). I absolutely love it! It's got more than enough features to keep any and all users and at this point in time, most of the kinks are completely worked out. Lightning Fast, Best-in-Class RAID Controller (nForce 3 Ultra, which is definately better than the VIA or the Promise). No question that this... Advertisement

Strengths: Stable, High overclocking ability, nVIDIA nForce3 chipset, Corecenter
Weakness: NONE
This motherboard is really nice. Easy to overclock with their corecenter software. I run the Athlon 64 3200+ and have overclocked it to 2.5gHz easily without even changing the voltage. I still need to OC higher but havent had time to try the diffent voltages.
