Hot hardware heeft de Athlon mamaplank van msi, de 6167, onder de loep genomen :The layout of this board is excellent. It doesn't have a very small footprint but the use of that extra space was very efficient. The ATX Power Connector is located infront of the DIMM Sockets and off to the side enough to keep the cables out of the way of your proce or heat sink and fan combo. Perhaps this was by design or perhaps by nece ity since there are four very large voltage regulators with heat sinks behind the CPU Slot A. All in all, the MS-6167 is well built and easy to work with.
