MSI makes good stuff. BUT you really need to add what cpu (ie,
AMD, Intel, etc) you want to use, and what for ? with what?
If I can add anything to your general query, MSI has long been a
overclocker's favorite. If a board's built to oc, it'll usually more
than satisfy a regular users needs (stabiltity!). Between, price and
features, you might also look at Asus, Soyo, Epox, Gigabyte, Aopen,
maybe Iwill ... These are the well known quality boards, have been
for some time. For a AMD centered machine, I'd suggest one of their
recommended boards (www.amd.com, MSI's on the lists ;)
Still a particular users needs should rule the roost. Buy a board
based on how it matches what you're lookin for, what you wanna use it
for. I usually avoid the latest and greatest. So what do you wanna
run on it ? If you're lookin to build an Intel based system, IMO,
all i8xx chipset boards suck, avoid SiS, and nForce. Y'all'sMMV
