ASRock Conroe 945G-DVI Motherboard

Introduction:

   You've seen the name ASRock on the internet and in a recent Virtual-Hideout review with ASRock's AliveNF6G-DVI Micro ATX. The two boards are similar in their features and functions except that the Conroe 945G-DVI is for the LGA 775 Intel based processors and the AliveNF6G-DVI is for AMD AM2 processors. The boards are basically opposite sides of the same coin, one for AMD and one for Intel.
