Nice to see Biostar back in the game again. I was building hundreds of them about ten years ago. They were very understated boards with solid performance and a good price point.

We sold loads of Biostar iDeq's which outsold Shuttle 2:1 due to build quality and quietness. Still got my AMD 3000 with 2GB ram, and its running Win7 Premium no probs... its years old!
 
That 890FX board looks like a damn good deal, 2x pci-e x16 for that price :O, no sata 3Gb/s or usb 3.0 though :(

I just ordered the 890FX board, although there is no usb3.0, i figured by the time i use usb3.0 the pci cards wont be all that expensive :P

TA890GXB-HD looks similar to mine but missing a few heatsinks!! what's the difference between this and the GXE version?
 
biostar motherboards are cr@p tbh , had 2 die on me running stock speeds . nice looking boards but not for me

I've had 2 Asus boards die on me and a Gigabyte board. Not a single Biostar board has given up on me yet.
Biostar are not **** by any stretch of the imagination, you must have just got unlucky. I've been very happy with Biostar for years and years. Speak as you find, I'd highly recommend them
 
Thought they're gone bust tbh. Must have been a while since their last product launch? Good to see there still about, I have a couple of workstations running Biostar boards, wouldn't hesitate to buy one again

Just noticed, they've ditched the lurid colour schemes :(:) that was a feature IMO
