AMD Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-M59SLI-S5 AM2

Today's featured motherboard is the Gigabyte GA-M59SLI-S5 AM2 ATX Motherboard. The S5, for AMD Socket AM2 processors, is based on the proven nForce 590 chipset. Aside from it's support for all current AM2 processors, and up to 16GB DDR2 RAM, the S5 benefits from 3 PCI-E slots (two of them at 16x). The short term benefit is more flexibility in terms of video card placement. The long term benefit is the ability to simultaneously run SLI and a dedicated physics card. Overclocking and stability is on par with other 590 boards (in other words, very good). Additional features include fanless heatpipe cooling, dual BIOS, 8ch onboard audio, 2x eSATA, firewire and dual Gigabit LAN.
