Biostar is good for normal use but some sites are reporting taht it's FETs (transistor) are overheating and mobo freezing on overclocking to high values.

just do "biostar ta790gx a2+ freeze" and you will find numerous posts about the same.

Problem is that to cut down production cost, they use bit cheap FETs which are unable to stay cool (could be a reason why a crossfire mobo is available for 5k)
