    Interesting - I'm beginning to look at mobos for my next upgrade, so it's useful to be able to look at them like this first. Thanks.

    However, why on earth is there a cut-out of a smiley lady with a (let's be honest) really very lovely cleavage next to Mr MSI Man? It's just bizarre. As if "booth babes" at tech shows weren't sad enough, they're now using pretend ones?

    Glad you found the piece useful - but wait for the HEXUS.labs verdict to see if Richard's enthusiasm was warranted

    There names were what and where and why and how and when and who.

    Ahh. Fair enough. I should probably watch it again then, um, for the, the mainboard info?

    Wow, nice specs.

    Oh, and the motherboard is quite interesting too.
