Pretty good with FX series
I've had this going for about 6 or 7 months now. Only thing I can say is update the BIOS and the SATA RAID drivers to the latest available or you will likely have problems. I couldn't even burn a CD until I figured out the drivers needed updating, then magically it started working. Great BIOS features, easy to OC though I haven't tweaked much. Don't let the SATA speed fool you, you are limited by your HDD transfer speed. Good value though, don't waste your money on something more expensive when this gets the job done well.

Could be Better
Bought this board for new build ran great and fast for 3 days then the PCI-E slots went bad. Working with MSI to RMA for a new one but gonna be a few weeks till up and running, was an amazing board with great performance till it went dead. Will repost when I get my new one in and re-review.

Almost perfect
Installation was easy, even comes with an adapter that makes reset switches and power plugs easier. Does not have on board VGA but who uses that these days, running it with my 6 core FX and GTX-460, and everything runs awesome, had to re-install 7 and manually activate USB recognition, but no more trouble than a standard board
