When it came to the two 790GX boards tested today, the MSI DKA790GX Platinum generally has the performance edge over the Foxconn, though this margin may vary from one benchmark to another. Importantly, MSI has a more comprehensive and user friendly BIOS compared to the Foxconn A7DA-S. In terms of features, both are rather similar, with the Foxconn perhaps faring a bit lighter when it came to ticking features off a checklist. Both vendors also had their own proprietary utilities for monitoring and tweaking. As we mentioned, the 790GX is a more affordable option for those who require CrossFireX on the AMD platform and the prices that we found for the two 790GX boards reviewed today reflect that. The Foxconn A7DA-S can be found at around US$125, which is very affordable for a decent if standard, enthusiast oriented board. MSI's DKA790GX Platinum is more pricey at around US$155 so if its slightly better performance and generally more polished package gets your fancy, forking out the difference seems quite reasonable too.
