Error 404

I've seen threads for many other AM3/AM2+ mobos, but none for these beauties. If you want to/need to discuss anything regarding these motherboards, this is the right thread! Questions, bragging, anything but those obnoxious flame wars

Oh, alright...You 790FX(T) owners can play too, but only until one of you gets a thread going.

Looks like a cool thread. I am contemplating ordering one of these, or a M4A79XTD EVO.

Do it!
The only quirky thing I've seen with mine is that if you mash F12 or sometimes Delete/End to get into various BIOS options (boot device/BIOS/QFlash respectively), the BIOS crashes and spits out some random ACSII block and a number...Scared me a few times but it's nothing horrible.

The PSU might be a limiting factor, but try using the F4G BIOS (I can post it here when I get home if you want) - It's working fine for me.

Also, I need someone to make a sig link for this. I'm pretty back at it, but if no one else does I may need to, and you don't want that
