MSI
MSI's K9N Diamond utilizes the NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI chipset and is a follow up to the successful K8N series.
The K9NGM-V pairs the NVIDIA GeForce 6100 and nForce 410 chipsets together resulting in an entry level NVIDIA product with integrated graphics for AM2.
The K9NU Neo-V is an interesting board and one we would like to review as it uses the ULi M1697 chipset and now supports the AM2 processor series. This board should cost less than US $75 and offer great performance.
The K9VGM-V leads MSI's entry level products for AMD AM2 by combining the VIA K8M890 and VT8237R+ chipsets. Expect to see this board sell for under US $50 later this month.
While not motherboard related, MSI did have two silent video cards that stood out from the normal offerings. The NX7600GT offers HDMI output and the NX7900GT is one of the few 7900 products with passive cooling.

I have an old ECS mainboard, and it worked great (except for some restarts when gaming over 12 hours :D )lewisc - Thursday, June 15, 2006 - link
MSI - 'Angelic Quality, Heavenly Performance'. Well I don't know about anyone else, but I've been looking for a graphics card for quite some time that flies better with the Big Guy.What exactly is angelic about a computer product?!

Good thing from ASrock for us people suck in agp world wanting a conroe.Rock Hydra - Thursday, June 15, 2006 - link
Yeah, I hope the AGP/PCIe is implemented in the same manner as the ULI chipsed does. Though, I'm less interested in AGP, and WAY more interested in DDR. Though...what would the DDR2 800 or 667 Equivalence be to DDR? Would i have to get DDR800 or DDR667, and does something like that even exist?Strunf - Thursday, June 15, 2006 - link
The FSB is either 800 or 1066, soo the DDR and DDR2 have to be 400 or 533...its actually written on the boards DDR400 or DDR2 667.Performance wise I would say DDR400 is on pair with DDR2 533.
