MSI K9A2 CF Motherboard Review

So far this has been a nice upgrade for me. I moved from an ECS GeForce7050M-M

Here are the specs of what I upgraded from and why

Dual-channel DDR2 memory architecture ( I never saw the DC, I always ran at 400mhz)

2 x 240-pin DDR2 DIMM socket support up to 16 GB (will never happen only 2 slots)

Support DDR2 800/667/533/400 DDR2 SDRAM (I always saw it at lowest speeds even after max upgrade)

Well after a bit of less than one week, the PCI express slot, dies on me, I had to return the motherboard. it was the last of that kind they had at the fry’s by home. So i moved on to an xfx motherboard.

but the benchmarks I received on that motherboard where higher than I ever had, all I upgraded was the motherboard. that’s crazy. I used the same processor and sticks of ram, and my scores doubled over my past motherboard with the exact same components.

Well here is the review of the new motherboard XFX 750a Black Edition
