BIOSTAR - BIOSTAR M7NCG Motherboard Review

Neal White reviews v1.1 of BIOSTAR’s mATX IGP-based motherboard, the M7NCG (nForce2-GT). You certainly get your money’s worth with this little gem of a board, but if you’re looking for an extra performance boost, make sure you get one of the v1.4 boards (with frequency/voltage control BIOS options). Here’s a snip:

Like all motherboards based on one of the nForce chipsets, the M7NCG comes with a wealth of standard features. That’s why I like nForce motherboards, and this Biostar motherboard is no exception. It has everything you need in a basic computer, built in and ready to go: GeForce4 MX graphics, a network port, 6 USB 2.0 ports, 2 IEEE1394a (FireWire) ports, and a great sound system. This motherboard also has useful features like a CPU overheating protection circuit to protect your AMD CPU from burning up (by cutting power if the CPU temperature gets too high). That’s a very important feature, since AMD CPUs do not include automatic thermal throttling like Intel’s P4.
