MSI Desktop Motherboard - VIA K8T800 Chipset
Strengths: Sata, USB 2.0 and firewire with built in sound.
Weakness: Only supports 2Gb RAM...
Nice board to work with. Went together and booted with no problems at all. System runs quiet, and is fast with the 3700+ CPU. I would recommend this board to anyone.
