So far we’ve reviewed two 790FX based motherboards for the AMD platform; one from GIGABYTE and the other from ASUS. They were both decent performers, with the GIGABYTE board edging out the ASUS and finding a home in my AMD test rig. However all this commotion lead to an email from MSI, saying “Hey! What about our board?” Though it doesn’t really come as much of a surprise, it turns out that they have a very competitive AMD 790FX based board as well.
