i will be running 2 AMD cards plus a nivida card for physx, and a sound card. thats why i would like to know if the soundcard will fit in the first pci-e slot.

[SylentCommando]

is there enough room for a soundcard in the first PCI-E x 1 slot with the heatsink there? was thinking of getting the crosshair 5, but this one has better pci-e layout for me then the asus CH5. need to be able to run 2 x AMD cards, plus nvidia physx card and a X-fi sound card, just want to make sure there is enough room for the sound card and if the heatsink is low profile.

Asrock=cheaper Asus board, Asus is subsituded to Asrock, Asrock was made to compete with ECS, and Boistar motherboards.

Nice Review, but PS/2 is not an annoyance by any means.. as a matter of fact many people including myself specifically look for PS/2 connectors on new motherboards to be able to use features such as N-Key Rollover, anti-Ghosting, and no CPU-Polling/Lag on many high level Mechanical Keyboards released everyday.

The only downer is this Mobo uses a Broadcom nic (to make it worse 2 of them!). I would've preferred Intel or Realtek.

There is a HDMI header but no socket

Interesting, I'll be building a similar set up with this board and same 16GB G.SKILL Ripjaws X memory, although I'll get the FX-8150, and use my current HD 5770 as a place holder until I either buy 2x HD 6970s or maybe 2x HD 7970s. All going in a Cooler Master HAF-X case, and I also stuck tto all red and black parts, including the PSU i'll be getting haha

[BloXx99]

Buying this board in about a week along with the FX-8120!

[FirstAidKeith]

there's no HDMI on that board.

[TechRampageReviews]

@FirstAidKeith Sorry, thought there was an HDMI port when I ordered it :|

[FirstAidKeith]

@TechRampageReviews it's all good. hows the motherboard?

[TechRampageReviews]

@FirstAidKeith It's great ;)

[FirstAidKeith]

@TechRampageReviews i'm thinking about getting this or asrock 990fx extreme3 AM3

[jnr8877]

@TechRampageReviews How much did you pay for this board?

JNR

[mindharvester]

ASUS Crosshair V Formula is it better than this?

[TechRampageReviews]

@mindharvester Yeah it's probably a better board.. Asus always gives more goodies and overclocks better. But it is more expensive.

[mindharvester]

@TechRampageReviews only 30 euros more :) ASUS Crosshair V Formula 

[chinoangelo]

ill get that board in a week or two :D

[sarutx800]
