Foxconn has built a nice mid-level entry motherboard that is very feature rich. It has onboard RAID, 8-channel sound, plenty of USB and Firewire ports, and uses all the latest high end hardware. I'm not all too sure if a mid-level entry motherboard should be paired with the latest hardware because it's already targeted at the budget enthusiast. I'm sure they do have their reasons though. A low end PCI-E graphic card isn't too expensive and the price drops on DDR2 is certainly pleasing. While this board is feature rich, the performance and BIOS options aren't very impressive. Foxconn should focus more on the performance rather than all the crazy onboard features. If the 915A01-P-8EKRS uses DDR and AGP, then it would be a better offer-considering the targeted group of users. The 915A01-P-8EKRS isn't a board to brag about and doesn't offer the latest cutting edge performance. It's just an average board for the average Joe.
