NeoSeeker has posted a review on the MSI 648 Max Motherboard.
Looking at the specifications, you can see that the chipset offers a good blend of advanced features like AGP8X with DDR333+ support. 6-channel audio is provided via the ReakTek AKC650 chip, and a Broadcom 4401 or Broadcom 5702 provides LAN support. The 5702 Broadcom chip comes with the 648Max-F board, which is equipped with Gigabit Ethernet. The board can support up to 6 USB 2.0 devices, but beware that only 4 are actual USB ports (on the rear of the board). The other 2 USB "ports" are really a motherboard connector for a front USB port device. For audio, the board has 3 jacks onboard and a simple S-bracket that includes center/sub and rear speaker outputs, plus optical and coax SPDIF jacks.Read more
