This board 790FX - GD70 looks prety nice but if we like test this board from MSI you must have CPU from AMD because you couldīnt buy it in shop but AMD dont take it for testsitīs super combination

Think different! < Be different!
Not bad looking but I think the Gigabyte board seems like it'll be as good and cheaper.

I'm not sure what are you saying here.My guess is that you said AM3 CPUs are not available yet?That's correct,but as of next month,you will be able to buy 925 and lower models of AM3 Phenom IIs and use it with this board.Originally Posted by A2C

@Caveman787 (before your edit)
Where did you see 8x pcie slots(i guess you meant 8x)?
4 x PCI-E x16 slots support ATI CrossFireX Technology

790FX can support PCI-E 2.0 x16 in 2 ports simultaneously, and if you run 3 you will get x16 + x8 + x8 or with 4 ports, x8 + x8 + x8 + x8. Now PCI-E 2.0 x8 is effectivly PCI-E 1.1 x16.
The 790GX chipset only supports PCI-E 2.0 x16 in 1 port, so in crossfire you will get x8 + x8 on each.
Now I will wait for an upgrade. NB890 will support 4 PCI-E 2.0 x16 for Crossfire X, and SB800 will have enhanced ACC functions so these 790FX/SB750 AM3 boards isn't something I can say i look forward too.
I'm quite sure MSI has AM3 ES chips for validation purposes.This board 790FX - GD70 looks prety nice but if we like test this board from MSI you must have CPU from AMD because you couldīnt buy it in shop but AMD dont take it for tests
Seems we made our greatest error when we named it at the start
for though we called it "Human Nature" - it was cancer of the heart
CPU: AMD X3 720BE@ 3,4Ghz
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
GPU:HD5850 1GB
PSU: Seasonic M12D 750W Case: Coolermaster HAF932(aka Dusty)
In Czech-slovakia office they havent any CPU for this
and AMD Czech - Slovak wouldnīt like take ani CPU for testing
this i would like say

I want that GD70. I'm foaming at the mouth, I love black/blue.
I can't use my 940BE in this can I?
the fx looks really nice would look better in my system than my m3a32 does. too bad im holding out until the rd890 and sb800 boards.
790Fx board ooks like a revamped K9A2-P with better mostfet/pwm/Vr section an sb750, add big buttons like asus buttons, angled sata.
it's got the same basic lay out.
wonder when Nvidia will get on board with this N880A or NGTXA ? lol
HAVE NO FEAR!
"AMD fallen angel"
You didn't get the memo? 1 hour 'Fugger time' is equal to 12 hours of regular time.
im wondering why they are putting the nb next to the mosfets on these am3 boards. i have seen multiple boards have this.
