So what's the overall opinion of this board from folks who have used it (ASrock 890GX)?
From what I've read in this thread, most results look pretty positive.
My GBT 890GX died on me, and I've always liked the looks of this board.
I like the layout, the color scheme and the features...
I've never had an ASRock, but this board caught my eye from the first time I saw it!
I was going to wait for the 890FX boards, but I really don't need all the extra PCI-e lanes (no intention of running Xfire anyway).
I'm a dedicated AMD guy so I like the underdog. ASRock seems to be the underdog of Mobo manufacturers (they just try harder
), I respect that!
Oh yeah, for the folks who were conserned about cost and were considering the 880g version of this board, the one thing I would worry about would be the PWM sections of those boards!
They look like they're 4+1 on the power, personally, I've had really bad luck with 4+1 boards (maybe I just abuse them too much
)...
From my experience with PHII boards the few extra $$$ for the GX and 8+2 power would be money well spent.
