MSI 890FXA-GD65 Review

" The MSI 890FXA-GD65 is based on AMD’s 890FX chipset with the SB850 south bridge granting the board support for SATA 6G drives. Unfortunately you won’t find eSATA, multiple RAID controllers, IEEE1394 ports, or anything of that nature on the 890FXA-GD65. So if you need these things you’ll need to step up to a higher end offering. However, minimalists will appreciate the board’s no nonsense and no frills design. Like most boards these days the high level of integrated peripherals, even on this basic board requires very little in the way of added components to make a fully functional system. You only need a socket AM3 compatible processor, DDR3 memory, power supply, and data drives to make a complete machine. "
