I think it's better than ASUS.

Unfortunately I haven't got BD.

Thanks. As I stated above the OC is pretty bad with 4 modules unfortunately. I'm going to check it with 2 modules soon.

I hardly see any AMD board does well on 4 dimms oc. Thx, I'm lookin forward to that...

I've got one of these coming for review, but it's still at the site owner's place and he's been under the weather and not been able to get to the post office I'm really excited to get it though!

I don't have really good modules to test with unfortunately, timings OR overclocking, but my 2x2GB mis-matched Micron D9 (1.9V) with PSC (1.65V) does 4x2GB 1600 7-8-7 (restriction of the PSC modules, which is a long story itself lol). I was able to do that on my 555BE and 1090T on this old 890FX Deluxe3, so I think it might be a combination of CPU used and a little bit of motherboard thrown in.


I agree with you Chew on the UEFI background :S

EDIT: Olivera-- try getting a reading from this spot, where it says VT8 (or might be a 6, can't tell). I've discovererd those are Voltage Test locations, which I'm sure people knew about but I wasn't aware of haha Anyways, I've noticed they are pretty standard on a lot of boards now (my Giga and DFI S939 both don't), all with the same "VT#" indicators. I think it's worth mentioning that not all of the locations, like on my 890FX Deluxe3, are small double-pad solder points for like SMD resistors or caps, but most of the time just a single round dome of solder.

EDIT2: Holy crap I can't believe I uploaded the version where I didn't point out where I was talking about >_< lol

The board looks like rampage 3 formula meets crosshair 4 formula, not really a bad thing i guess.

That fatality background EFI needs to go.......

Loos like only 2 way SLI with triple slot vga's, not really a deal breaker since 2 way is more that enough with the top end cards that would be tri slot.

The caps are interesting, can you do a close up of them?

That fatality background EFI needs to go.......

everyone already complained about that and so they patched in the uefi option to change the background to just black.
