    Anyone have any major testing with these motherboards? Good or bad points?

    They are dire. Stay away from them.

    They're now starting to develop into the graphics card department aswell. Are companys paying another company to build these and just putting their own labels on them or what?

    Foxconn is a generics maker, they're huge in the far east, but have no real presence elsewhere. They make everything, and even parts of most motherboards such as PCI slots, and IDE connectors.

    Yeah Foxconn make everything if you wonder who makes the motherboards for Dell, HP and the like thats them.

    The boards themselves are fairly decent it's just that Foxconn isn't really too used to the retail market and so they lack the options in the bios from other more established vendors.

    But if your not a tweaker then they are okay to use.
