ASUS ROG Crosshair V Formula-Z AM3+ AMD 990FX + SB950 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Gaming Motherboard with 3-Way SLI/CrossFireX Support and UEFI BIOS
  • Supports 3-Way NVIDIA SLI / AMD CrossFireX
  • Extreme Engine Digi+ II
  • SupremeFX III
  • ROG GameFirst II
  • Intel Gigabit LAN

Pros:

Ok when it works.

Cons:

Where do I start? DOA from the box. Sent to ASUS for repair and got it back, still don't boot to BIOS. Had to take to a professional tech for repair and paid $120. Once its running, it doesn't recognize my Kingston DDR3 2400 RAM. When I took it off from Auto to 2400, my PC will not boot up! Had so many issues with this motherboard and aggravated the hell out of me! Buyers stay away!

Overall Review:

-AMD FX-8350 Vishera 4.0GHz (4.2GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W Eight-Core Processor
-2 x Nvidia 480 GTX

Manufacturer Response:

Dear Valued Customer,

Sorry to hear that you are having issues with your Kingston DDR3 2400 RAM. Please make sure the kingston model purchased is listed in our QVL link below.

Have you tried updating the bios. When you put your setup together do you have everything installed?

Can you just try putting the basic components on only. 1 RAM and 1 VGA card and make sure nothing is overclocked.

Are you able to boot now? Please tell me the setup you are using when you are not able to boot. Please include PSU as well.

If you have any questions or comments you can email me again at cl-jeffrey@asus.com which I reside in the U.S

ASUS strives to meet and exceeds our customer expectations within our warranty policy.

Regards,

Jeffrey
