Exclamation Gigabyte GA-MA790X-UD4P best board under $120?
i was looking at reviews and this board has it all. is there really anything better?

jap caps, HS on the MOSFETS, 2oz of copper in the pcb, crossfire if i got ati, ACC sb750, 8 usb, best audio chip iv ever seen, 8 sata ports, 2 bios chips, raid 1 and 0 on a separate j-micron raid controller, enuff cables to strangle someone with. the list goes on. only better board i can think of is a foxcon destroyer or an x58 classified.

i might get the open box version of the Gigabyte GA-MA790X-UD4P but it wont come with all the cables =[ just gunnah have to spend 110. no new case for me X_X.

NOW, you guys are sure i can pump some iron with this and really overclock high with it....

and if you can find a better mobo, show me

As of the UD series, Gigabyte has grown in OC popularity exponentially. I would definitely invest in that board if I were you. Look into the forums to see if you can find one used, comes at a cheaper price and most members on these forums take excellent care of their hardware.

It was $104.99 a few days ago 790FX and the best overclocking board out there.
