This review is from: GIGABYTE GA-890FXA-UD5 AM3 AMD 890FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
Pros:
this board has as much as boards $100-$200 more, dual bios, dual ethernet 3.0 USB & 6.0 SATA.
didnt have 1 problem with installation, it runs cool, quiet and faster than a scalded ape I upgraded from a EVGA 590I am2 athlon fx X2 I put alot more money in that system and it was a good system but this just blows it away
Cons:
I hate having to close my case even though it has absoluetly no bearing on preformance, this mobo looks so sexy !especially with the blue heatsinks on my G skill ripjawram and the gigbyte blue & white color scheme
Overall Review:
most of the neg comments about this board on newegg, are due to people not reading the manual before installation, if you do get this board besure to read how to install the ram so you are able to run it unganged, I am sure there are some legit complaints, but this board is a good buy you get preformance and features of boards the next tier higher
