This board is a pile of crap. I ran into other people who had issues with BSOD or purely locking up even when setting up the BIOS/CMOS settings. The M5A97 puts this thing to shame and costs less too.
It might work fine for month or so and that is when the issues shows up.
@MrBen155 6 core cpu's are already unlocked. I believe there was a 2 core amd that actually had 4 cores and that's what the unlocker is for. It will still over clock the cpu by activation the unlocker option usually so it's a win win.
@MrBen155 No this motherboard can NOT do sli. It does do crossfire but not sli.
If you want a great motherboard that is capable of SLI look at this model M4N75TD AM3. It supports the top of the line amd 6 core with the newest bios update.
It's a very solid board and newegg sells it for an amazing $99 dollars.
@MrBen155 You're better off getting one GTX 560 because it's near the same speed and it's a single card then later if you want you could go sli. It's the same exact price at 2 GTS 250's in my area so at least check it out and if it's the same price in your area I would snag up one GTX 560 for the time being and put another in sli later if needed.
I like this board. Anyway, I need help getting hackintosh on this. Any help?

@Vidia48 i got it for £89 from somewere and now i just need the 1090T or more and a gts450 are they any good?
MrBen155 11 months ago
@MrBen155 Yeah the 1090T processor is very good the 1100T is better if you can afford it though.
As for the video card that's also a pretty decent card and will play most games with a pretty decent setting.
