MSI 990FXA-GD65 ATX AMD Motherboard
Cons:northbridge heatsink is poorly placed and undersized

Pros:excellent slot layout with only 1 legacy PCI slot and 6 PCI-E
Comment:
I run my HD7970 on the last 16x slot so I only lose the legacy PCI slot due to the video card taking 2 slots. I still have 5 PCI-e slots for various other expansion cards. Awesome. I hate having to have an extra fan to blow on the expansion cards and northbridge chip but it's screaming hot and I'd hate for this board to fail. Overall I'm happy with this board and it's price.
