Just in general. The board I had was a AM2NF6G-VSTA ... I went though 3 
boards under warrenty over a 3 month period. Don't recall all the 
reasons, but I think one developed a bas USB port. The last one I put it 
in a new box with 1 gig of ram and it is running fine for my wife, but 
her computing demands don't go much past checking her gmail account. One 
problem I had with the asrock boards was when I added ram ... they 
worked, but then  crashed from time to time. The price difference 
between that board and the ASUS M2N-SLI wasn't much more that $30 as I 
recall ... and it has been solid since I built the system. Life is too 
short to screw around with flaky hardware.

The local vendor I got the asrock board from told me (after) that he 
wasn't going to be carrying them (all) anymore. Good price, but too many 
problems. He makes no money sending back dead boards under warranty.
