Hello so i have just bought this Foxconn A9DA-S,
Code:

Motherboard for £26 and im woundering if its any good?

The main reason why i bought it was because it has the AMD3 socket for my phenom II x4 CPU and it has 2 PCI-E slots also duel channel ddr3 4Dimms @1333 or OC 1600

Also it has Integrated ATI® Radeon™ HD4290

Is this motherboard a good starting point to build upon? [this would be my first build and im a complete tool to this stuff at the moment]

In future i will build BIGGER better computers but for now to learn practice ect.... will this suffice my needs

Im looking to Overclock a little bit on the video cards ram and CPU unsure if you can overclock anything else, Also use the PC as a everyday PC a little light gaming web browzing ect..... Maybe video editing and sound editing if i decide to try that route out.

Basicly is the board any good. Pro's and Con's really.

Also trying to figure out how to use the text "link" as a clickable link

For that price yes definitely. The foxconn bios is not the easiest, I had a gigabyte 890GX chipset and it was very good so hopefully the foxconn implementation is as good. The graphics is quite competent for basic games but needs a proper gfx card for full on 3D games.

Good luck on the build. I assume it is a budget job.
 
Yeah its my first build so im kind of blind still and yeah its a budget to start with when im competent at building them i will go out on the money for the job to be done.
