Biostar DDR2 NVIDIA Micro ATX AMD Motherboard MCP6P M2+

I have used Biostar MB before and have had only good experiences with them. This one is no different. Reliable and dependable. Would continue to buy there products.

Great products, ship fast!

A pretty good product. My issue is that I bought an mATX case, and decent power supplies apparently don't exist for it.

This motherboard had a bad sata connector, and it killed the controller on the hard drive I used with it.

It works, but nothing special.It's got 1 PCI Express x16 (not 2.0) & 2 PCI Slots, which is a pretty standard, low-key combination.Depending on what you do, however, the lack of GIGA LAN will hurt if you're doing bandwidth-intense LAN (file transfers, etc) stuff. Also the lack of an extra PCI Express slot means you're stuck at best with a sub-optimal GIGA LAN PCI card if you decide to try that route later.But if all you're doing is low-key gaming, surfing, etc, or this is a gift for someone else that qualifies as such, this'll do. (There certainly doesn't seem anything wrong with it as I'm using it right now with a XFX ATI card I review elsewhere.)As it is, I got this as a cheap combo, and for the price it was a pretty good deal. Just realize it is what it is. Mix it with a cheap hauppauge 878-chip PCI TV Tuner card, video card, and the rest (RAM, Case/PSU, etc), and you've got a OK little box that does the basics and/or is a great gift.Final Verdict: -1 for the current price on here since for just a bit more, you get alot more. But if you're looking for a rating of if it works, it's a "5".
