_______________
Socket 939 motherboards have a right to live and may be an adequate choice in many cases. On the other hand, it hardly makes sense to review expensive motherboards with this socket, because you shouldn't really pay extra money for functions that you don't use right now. You will most likely have no chances for using them anyway. The only exception from this rule in case of a gaming computer is support for two graphics ports and SLI/CrossFire modes. As this support is not very expensive right now (in some cases it even comes for free), there are some chances that it can prolong the life of your computer without a total upgrade. An example of such a motherboard that strives for interest from thrifty gamers is Gigabyte K8N-SLI, the most junior model with SLI support from Gigabyte.
