Pros: AM3+ socket, DDR3 2033 (o.c.),Digi+ VRM w/ large passive heatsink, Crossfire ready, Voltminder LED, UEFI bios, ROG Connect, System Level Up

Cons: Overclocks so many ways but find Auto voltages on CPU and CPU/NB to be off

This board has been a dream to work, Yeah there was a few cons to include but who needs AUTO anyways. This board shipped from newegg with everything included plus some. Installed, booted, and OC within 10 minutes. Software package was useful including 1 year of protection from Kaspersky Antivirus. Running this board 24/7 on air with no issues. Able to really achieve stable overclock settings well stress testing in Prime95 and making real time bios changes using AIsuite2 and ROG connect, both could use some fine tuning but they work. UEFI BIOS takes some time to get used to, but once a little research is done the tweaking ability for this board is great.
