Make sure you choose a different motherboard company. Biostar, foxconn and ecs should always be avoided.

The Biostar Hi-Fi A88W 3D FM2+ is one of the best FM2+ motherboards in it's class.

That is completely irrelevant to this thread. And that board isn't even carried anywhere anymore which is makes it irrelevant for any thread. Please keep it to the subject. If you don't have anything relevant then don't comment.

Wow nice deflection. That'll show me....

Biostar has made many nice boards over the years. I disagree with your statement that they should "always be avoided."
