Foxconn C51XEM2AA nForce 590 SLI Mobo review

NVIDIA’s nForce 590 SLI chipset has a lot of cool features that are going to help novices and enthusiasts enjoy the overclocking and overall DIY computing experience even more than before. Foxconn’s implementation of the chipset is a good one and it unlocks all of the embedded features of the board in both software and hardware. This is due to the fact that Foxconn was so happy with NVIDIA’s reference design that it decided to bring that to market.

However, there are some layout changes that we would have made before bringing NVIDIA’s reference design to market. We would have expected the area around the CPU socket to be more spacious and we also highlighted some improvements for an otherwise impressive BIOS. These changes would make Foxconn’s C51XEM2AA motherboard appeal to a wider range of enthusiasts. If you can live with the highlighted weaknesses (or they will not affect you), we are certain that this board will serve you well.
