This review is from: ASUS Sabertooth 990FX AM3+ AMD 990FX + SB950 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
Pros:
I does what it advertises.
Built 3 systems with this motherboard for me and friends. Raid 5 - 4 1.5tb with two SSD 240Gig as primary readers. This boasted the speed 2 fold. the raid drives are slow and only for redundancy not to lose data. Any video card works well. I will be adding two more screens so I will be updating VGA soon. 6core, 6tb drive, 8gig ram.
Cons:
Asus documentation sucks. It took a lot of research to find you must break the raid down to 2tb byte sizes in order to install an operating system. This you will find in the raid configurator. When it asks if you want to define say "yes."
Overall Review:
Very nice heat dissipation and stays cool. I got all six processor to 90% by running seven separate game consoles. I had absolutely no trouble booting but needed to get use to the bios. It was way smart. Hope y'all enjoy and prepare to be educated.
