GIGABYTE GA-M61PME-S2

Zitat: What to say about a "re-heated" motherboard, based on an obsolete chipset, launched in the market by a large manufacturer with a marking that suggests that is an up-to-date product? If you find this board costing far less than updated competitors it would be an interesting choice for those who don´t need an updated computer. But it costs the equivalent or more than many value motherboards, which are based on newer and less limited chipsets, like AMD 780 or GeForce 8200. M61PME-S2P is not really a bad motherboard, it is compatible with newer AMD processors, has a good voltage regulator circuit, RAID support, and even with some interesting options for overclocking. But if you have the option to buy a newer motherboard paying the same price, why buying an outdated product? Unfortunately, looks like the fate of these boards is to equip systems from large computer shops, where the user doesn´t have the knowledge to understand what he or she is buying.
