DISCLAIMER: I'm not a brain dead gaming addict nor MS Windows slave. So, people from this category please walk on by. I'm not going to brag about how your "beloved" MS OS or whatever game flies or rather gloriously smokes on this board.
I purchased a couple of these boards to build a cheap High Availability Linux Cluster without breaking the bank and to reliably run my Web, Mail, MySQL, SVN and other server applications in 24x7 operation mode.
The set of requirements was to find a general purpose motherboard which will sustain a high I/O throughput with good reliable componentry, and with minimum to none set of unnecessary features like EEE1394 / FireWire, Optical SPDIF outs, IEEE1394 ports and so on.
MSI K9A2 CF-F V2 has perfectly met these requirements. The only two wasted features were sound capability of ALC888 chipset and CrossFire capability of 790X main board chipset. Which is nothing compare to what would be wasted, had I chosen a different, more expensive board.
MSI built this board with long life solid capacitors which prior were used mainly on the server grade boards. Solid capacitors can outlast any conventional electrolytic capacitors by ten fold, which is very important for long term reliability of servers and HA clusters.
K9A2 CF-F V2 board supports up to 8GB of DDR2 533/667/800/1066 memory that is more than enough to have in every single node of the HA cluster or in light to medium duty general server.
The only noticeable drawbacks of this board were its el'cheapo aluminum heat sinks with that goofy and useless heat tape. The major cause of electronic componentry failure in almost 65% of the cases is insufficient heat transfer. So, I had to remove all the heat sinks, lap them, then polish, and then re-install them using an excellent Arctic Silver-5 heat sink paste.
I have my own well developed procedure how to drastically increase thermal conductance of any heat sink. On average 11 Centigrade temperature drop of the heat sink protected components was achieved in this case. I have to praise this board BIOS flexibility and intelligence. Due to the space limitations, I had to install Promise SuperTrak EX8350 Raid controllers in the first PCI-Ex16 slot and nVidia 7200 video cards in the second PCI-Ex16 (practically Ex8) slot on all these boards. K9A2 CF-F V2 handled this unusual arrangement without a hitch. While comparable and more expensive ASUS motherboard failed to recognize either Raid controller or video card, didn't post, and just produced some error code in the series of beeps.
So far, all five initial cluster nodes I built using this board are functioning admirably as they should. The best thing, that by choosing this inexpensive MSI K9A2 CF-F V2 board I did not exceed $1,050 price tag per each cluster node loaded with 8 x 0.5TB SATA hard drives, 8GB of RAM, EX8350 Raid controller, 9600 X4 Phenom CPU, e.t.c. Had I chosen a different mother board I would have spent at least $100 more with questionable hardware compatibility and potentially other problems as well.
In short, MSI K9A2 CF-F V2 is an excellent board to build a server or HA cluster to run your business or applications. Again, I don't give a damn about it's MS Windows or gaming capabilities - please see my disclaimer.

I have a 9 months using this boar never given me a problem with the games rather stable (Win XP) I do not understand as there are people who have problem.
For my part I recommend + + +

Excelent motherboard, it work perfect, i OC my phenom 9950 125 watt to 3 GHZ with no problem. Right now i have 8 gb ram OCZ 6400 installed and 2 1 TB seagate hard disk.

The first one I received did not post at all. Had to return it. The second one was fine and I can tell this is a good motherboard. Easy to set up and boots vista ultimate in no more than 45 seconds which is much better that the 1.5 or even 2 minutes i'm used to with other boards.
Outstanding customer service Amazon. Product was replaced immediately and before Christmas. One day delivery. Very pleased with the RMA procedure. 5 Stars for amazon
