The Test
In recent times, choosing a motherboard cannot be completely determined by a Winstone score. Now, many boards come within one Winstone point of each other and therefore the need to benchmark boards against each other falls. Therefore you shouldn't base your decision entirely on the benchmarks you see here, but also on the technical features and advantages of this particular board, seeing as that will probably make the greatest difference in your overall experience.

The Freetech P6F91i was a very stable board with a good layout. The BIOS is pretty simple and it would benefit from added features such as the ability to change voltage. Also, some people might not like the fact that the two columns have been switched from the standard Award BIOS. Although the Freetech boards may be hard to find, the P6F91i is a solid BX board even though it doesn't include many bells or whistles. If you are looking for a stable, well priced, standard fare board, the Freetech P6F91i is one board we recommend.
