The MSI 890FXA-G70 that Josh just finished reviewing represents the evolution of this chipset over time.  Originally lauded as a big step up for AMD whose last chipset was none too impressive, motherboard makers have continued to add features to boards based on this chipset.  This is fairly expensive for an AMD motherboard but after you read the review you will understand why.

“Overall it is an excellent board at a very competitive price. MSI did a very nice job on this one, and I am seriously considering using this particular board as the basis for upgrading my primary machine (it is running one of the first 790FX AM2+ motherboards with the not-so-impressive SB600 southbridge). So with that particular recommendation, it is a no brainer that it receives the Gold Award from PCPer.com. ”
