Pros: HUGE amount of Bios options, Cool colors, easy to install, Loves to be OC'ed
Cons: Its $20 less then what I paid for it on Newegg right now, Mobo Manual is useless/dosnt have ample info on BIOS or even mobo function. Alot of people have had trouble with the NB having no thermal paste.

First MOBO I was able to choose were money wasnt a factor, and I think I made a great choice.
Good for OCing, but with lack of info, its bad for newbs *like my self* Unless you find a great community like OCN.

Overall Great Product.

Pros: Most BIOS option i ever seen, very stable, great looks, great oc ability
Cons: too much bios option, not user friendly in this case, bad eng user manual

it is a 790FX board with less fancy features, if u only ask for performance this is a great board, but u will run into some amount of tweaking, i had hassle getting vista to work due to some bios settings, now it's all good, as long as u know what to do with bios it is a very good board, also, I live in canada and bought this board off ncix openboxed for only $134CDN, which is amazing compare to what tehy offer in store (790FX generally $190 + board)

very good looking board as well, nice packaging, provides all needed accessories,

english version of user manual is pretty awful, it is nothing but a quick installation instructions in different languages, there's no BIOS setting instructions, I'm from Taiwan originally, so I went and download the big5 chinese version of the manual in PDF, it is lot more detailed then english ones.

If u are in budget but must have a 790FX board (like me, I got X4 9850 for cheap and doesn't trust any 770/780G boards since they don't officially support them) this is the best option around
