    so the 790FX NB cooler is huger compared to what's on the M3A79-T deluxe
    a few bios tweaks and it's faster now. I still need to see some vista 64 bit score.

    Very nice looking board.

    Can you tell me what the vCore is? I recall the M3A79-T was vCore limited to liked 1.7 IRC. So I had to do a vCore mod.

    the cpu score disappoints me.
    amd boards seem to score less in this.
    more in the GPU points.

    It looks good.

    But I'd prefer a ROG board from them with an AMD chipset

    I like the NB heat sink but if you have a lot of SATA drives and hard ware use 3 2 slot cooler video cards you can have trouble with that board . They
    should have made all the SATA ports on a angle .

    I was going to ask where the overvolt jumper was but then found it next to the three SATA ports. That big heatsink on the NB now has me rethinking the need to change the cooling on my M3A79T.

    Well I like your overclock on air...seems like not many people have been getting that high here. Yet some have on newegg...

    Not impressed with the board really it seems just like the old m3a79-t deluxe basically and the new gigabyte setup seems alot sexier, feature rich and heres to hoping it performs as good or better.

    What new Gigabyte board do you speak of, I haven't seen any new ones lately for the AM2+ or new AM3.

    He's probably talking about the AM3 board that was discussed here http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...d.php?t=214207
    Best layout i've seen so far but i'm a bit wary of Gigabyte after their lacking support of their AM2+ boards

    Cooler: Xigmatek S1283(Terrible mounting system for AM2/3)
    Motherboard: Gigabyte 790FXT-UD5P(F4) RAM: 2x 2GB OCZ DDR3 1600Mhz Gold 8-8-8-24

    Its funny you say that, cuz I was thinking that having some straight SATA connectors would be useful

    Its a massive pain on the M3A79-T to get to them always because they are ALL angled. I hate them

    well, you know what they say.... difffnrt strokes for difffrnt folks

    And I still wish they would put a CMOS reset push button on the board, instead of that annoying jumper. I feel like a car mechanic each time I have to excavate for it

    Hazzan - Could you take a photo of socket? I would compare it with ASUS M3A79-T Deluxe.
