ASUS Sabertooth X58 Military Grade Gaming Motherboard Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

[gogobmwe30]

All are the same - Americans , Canadians - fucking Jews !

[atari26003]

Thanks to your video, im buying this board. :)

As well YES IT HAS A PS/2 PORT FOR MY KEYBOARD

Clickykeyboards ftw

[deejayzyx]

can i just install my video card on the second pci-e slot? then still use the pci slot..?

[Manhi40]

you kinda look like scout form tf2...

[timhtje]

@LIFESaGAME247 He's Canadian (A)

[Buttfuckbysquirl]

whats the best mobo u can get for 100 - 120 EURO'S on this website mycom.nl (dutch website) :)

[str1ka1]

lol the pcb is actually dark brown not black..

[Ninjapcx]

I'm thinking of buying Corsair TR3X6G1600C8D ..does anyone knows if sabertooth fully support them on 1600/8-8-8-24 Triple channel ??

[TABerselli]

@Ninjapcx I own this board with that ram. Not only does it work, but it works very well. I can OC it past 1850mhz just fine without any extra cooling devices. The standard heat fins on the ram works great. I have found this board and the ram to be reliable and fast.

[TABerselli]

@Ninjapcx Also, I think it is the fault of the ram, but I'm not 100% sure, but it defaults to 1066mhz. You will probably need to manually change the speed to 1600mhz in the bios set-up. If you want to ram to last super long or your system to run super cool you could just leave it at 1066mhz, lol.

[Ninjapcx]

@TABerselli lol yeah I got it 1600 ^^ thx

[dxbJono]

I know fuck all about motherboards.. So i'll just get this one

[thesportstv1]

a-zeus x58 supports sli? 

[A4k2i0]

A-Zoozs!?!?!?!!

[Curtofthehorde94]

I guess the dumbass was tryin to say US Americans?

[dabu002]

Can you call Canadians Americans since they live in the continent america?

[zukaka84]

Does it support hard drives over 2 TB? I want to buy 3 TB but am not sure about compatibility.

[Insirion]

I heared its only 16GB Ram max

[paladin905]

@Insirion That's wrong I got 24Gb installed in my one.. ;-)

And It works.. =)

[Insirion]

@paladin905 oke. wel it must be 1333 then right? its not support 1866 or am i wrong again?

[MrAntibeast]

Hey I have question : Can i fit two 6970 radeon graphics card plus X-fi titanium sound blaster card wich goes to pci express x1 slot. thanks for advance :)

[Insirion]

@MrAntibeast i got 2 msi 6950 twin frozr III but there realy isnt any space between the 2 cards. and there is 3 pci slot's so think you kan put it in the last slot...

[54Xe]

@MCLRproductions

how about a graphics card??? cuz atm you got really to much power (750W) for this system.....

[clubdore]

Heatsing coating tech, My a sry. NB 70 tot 80 C. Max temp 100C. Read some forums!

[TheStudiorainbow]

so... its supported the six core i7 970 ???

[54Xe]

@TheStudiorainbow

you should know that because this board has the 1366-socket and if yougot some knowledge about cpu's from today, you'd know that the 970 is a six-core unit and the only six-cores from intel till today are using the......................1366-­socket!!!! =D

but by the way, i'm looking for new computer components as well and got a look at the 980 atm, so why you've chosen the 970?????

[TheStudiorainbow]

@54Xe thank you lol, grat help

I think 980 is equal to 970 but has somewhat higher frequency !

chosen 970 randomly only to learn about six core!

[Thelowprofileguy]

Gonna build a pc around this motherboard in about 6 weeks :D

[cassandra5322]

I used the same board for 6 years (worked fine throughout) and it was pretty shit tier.

The military grade thing is kind of funny, no one with ANY respect for their computer would thrash it around so much that the military grade parts actually have to be tested for it's ruggedness. And if someone's rich enough for this mobo, then they're rich enough for decent cooling as well.

[cky2250]

what should i get Sabertooth 990FX or Crosshair V Formula. I need a new motherboard. I have a AMD 970, and a ATI 5770. 

[CROMAT30]

@cky2250 bro too high end for a 5770 and a 970 buy a 1100t and a 6950 or 6850 if you are on a lower budget...

[cky2250]

@CROMAT30 its not too high end. are you kiding me. people like you are the ones who wast cash geting more then the market needs. i got this stuff the 970 when it first game out. and the 5770 in 2009. they are both way above the average for games. if you check ouf steam, 4 million players. they will tell you what everyone has.

[CROMAT30]

@cky2250 haha and i have a pentium d 326 3ghz, a geforce fx5500, and 1 gig of ram... lol I NEED A NEW PC thinking of getting a i5 2500k asus p67 sabretooth, 4 gig gskill trident 1600mhz, and a 6850 or idk for graphics...

[cky2250]

@CROMAT30 anyway i already have the motherboard that is all i needed to buy.

[54Xe]

@CROMAT30

i5 2500k

sabertooth

4gig @ 1600

ati 6850

thats quite a mid-range pc but anyway better than your last one =)

[CROMAT30]

@54Xe not my last one this is my current one hahaha celeron d 326 oc`d to 3.05 ghz and one gig of ram and a fx 5500 from nvidia is good to play games like minecraft... yeah but i can play sims 3 on low graphics...

[54Xe]

@CROMAT30

hmmm, appr. 6 years old??? cuz my old pc (5 years old) has an x64 dualcore with 3Ghz, 3Gb RAM and an old gts8400 so even better...... =S

[CROMAT30]

@54Xe yeah the pc is from 2005... And was a mid range pc back in 2005 but today it is crap... but i love it :P

[CROMAT30]

@cky2250 ok bro everyone can have what they think is the best...

[rockbass13]

Is it possible to use quad-channel ddr3 with this motherboard, or do a now have a spare stick?

[LIFESaGAME247]

fucking Americans can't say anything ! it's A - SUS not AZOOOZ

[CROMAT30]

@LIFESaGAME247 he is canadian :P

[MetalFace48]

@LIFESaGAME247 ignorant.

[IxUNTOUCHBLExI]

@LIFESaGAME247 hes canadian... dumbass

[noitslegit]

@IxUNTOUCHBLExI Last time I checked Canada is in North America...dumbass

[IxUNTOUCHBLExI]

@noitslegit You said Americans. We're not Americans. We're Canadians. We are north americans but not from AMERICA.

[Maskof7eyes2]

@LIFESaGAME247 I'm american and I've always pronounced it A-SUS!

but the sad thing is i agree with you many of my countrymen "americanise" every word they get their proverbial mitts on, i once heard someone pronounce Chimera chim-(like chimney)-mi-ra for example.

[daigoji83]

@LIFESaGAME247 He's Canadian.

[MrAsianese]

@LIFESaGAME247 ...they're Canadian

[henrykeith69]

@LIFESaGAME247 he's canadian

[JakkIsBakkInBlakk]

@LIFESaGAME247 people who work at ASUS pronounce it "AZOOOZ" and he's canadian in case you hadn't heard ;)

[LIFESaGAME247]

@JakkIsBakkInBlakk you guys sound the same to us over this side of the pond mate, did'nt mean to offend anyone just sounds funny!? you say tons of funny shit like A-looo-min-umm instead of al-you-min-ee-um hahaha :)

[JakkIsBakkInBlakk]

@LIFESaGAME247 No offending took place, just trying to ciruclate proper information is all :) haha, yeah, youve got us on that word; silly americans, screwing with proper words, then us canadians are completely reliant upon how americans say things for our own pronunciation. Sort of like a human centipede of metal pronounciation o.O

[LIFESaGAME247]

@JakkIsBakkInBlakk IS THIS GUY CANADIAN? go to this video 59 seconds in = 5000 Dollar Gaming Computer build, Core I7 2600k (Quad SLI GTX 590's) Part 1

[FSXkid11]

@LIFESaGAME247 This guy is Canadian. And that is actually how its pronounced

[str1ka1]

@FSXkid11

So what if he's Canadian, Americans and Canadians both have pretty much identical accent for the most part, and you can pronounce it however you want, but the most logical way is A-SUS and not AZOOOS, which by the way, sounds retarded.

[potatocats]

@LIFESaGAME247 Did we mention that he's Canadian?

[0oDarkLordRevano0]

@LIFESaGAME247 And all those UK queers...

[0oDarkLordRevano0]

@LIFESaGAME247 He's actually Canadian, you fucking judgemental brit

[LIFESaGAME247]

@0oDarkLordRevano0 my bad, same thing though really, I bet you guys say AZOOOZ too!

[0oDarkLordRevano0]

@LIFESaGAME247 ASOOS ;)

[mullethippie96]

@LIFESaGAME247 im american and i prenonce it a sus

[angelevo]

@LIFESaGAME247 he's canadian and no one pronounces it azooz just cause they're american its pronounced 2 different ways even in your country so why you so mad

[utubeschool101]

@LIFESaGAME247 he is not American, he is Canadian...

[Sn00pzor]

@LIFESaGAME247 if you talking bout Linus hes from canada if im not wrong

[billonicle]

@LIFESaGAME247 he's Canadian dip shit

[skaterdude1998]

@LIFESaGAME247 your a fucking dumbass

[Nvidia9700MGT]

That's all ? 6 minutes pass so fast ...

[skiverus]

I bet that thing is bullet-proof.

[bmbpdk]

@skiverus if i buy the bullet, you buy the board and we do a test :-D

[sampad01]

Can someone please tell me how much its cost?

[j4cko56]

@sampad01 just look on amazon...its not hard to do lol £160

[sabertoothuser]

just wanna know how to enable 24GB memory i put in 6 slot 4GB each but only 16GB usable i use windows7 home premium 64bit

[engineer15426378]

@WackySmackyHarry Sandybridge will absolutely not work in X58.

[Daemon247]

3 psi-e.can i insert two cards in 1st and 3rd slot instead of 1st and 2nd?

[PrIzEiNaBoXx]

@MCLRproductions wowow your kidding me right? i just bought that exact build lol if you look on newegg i just bought the last sabertooth x58 and now its sold out hahaha ill let you know how it is when its done

[raginube]

Anyone know which waterblock you use for the north and south bridge on this board?

[raginube]

Anyone know what waterblock you use for this board? I think I have the right one in mind but better safe than sorry.

[asus3571]

@X6iiMpact6X neither there are much better ones out the h50 is horrid dont oc with it

[slawekgemba]

You can use Zalman cnps10x quiet.

It has nice look and it is very efficient.

I am using it with x58 sabertooth and i7-950

[naseemvideo]

Should call it Asus transformer..



[kohit7]

i wish i had the money to buy that

[orasjr]

Hey Linus, you say nothing about Crossfire???

[imkopZy]

does this work with sandy bridge processors or no

[ZeroHeroVids]

@imkopZy It has socket 1366. Check the socket of the processor you want to see if it matchs

[MrComputereviews]

@imkopZy no this is x58 not p67 or z68

[lilbesho]

guys, i am building a gaming pc, shall i get this motherboard or the g1 sniper?

[WeFailinEMS]

@lilbesho sniper

[rtsjoe]

This cermamix thing is because the price of copper has gone sky high, it's probably bullshit it improves performance.

[d2kool594]

Hello there. I am planning to build a pc sometime this summer and I'm trying to gather some opinions and tips. If you don't mind, what do you think of the following parts?

-CoolerMaster HAF 932 ATX full tower

-Windows 7 64 bit Pro

-WD 1TB caviar black 7200 rpm 64mb 6Gbs

-Intel core i7 950 3.06 GHz quad core

-Ultra X4 600W modular power supply w/ crossfire

-Geforce GTX 580 1.5Gb GDDR5

-12Gb 1600 MHz DDR3 triple channel memory

-ASUS Sabertooth X58 motherboard

Thanks in advance =)

[jumbie187]

@d2kool594

I5 2500k

LGA 1155 MSI P67A G43

8GB Muskin Silverline 1333mhz (12gb is overkill)

Corsair 850w

CoolerMaster HAF 922

2x 6950 2GB (GTX 580 isnt worth it, i have it i know)

Any HDD you want, try and get a SSD for boot

[PassMyJoint]

@d2kool594 ur gonna need ATLEAST 750w to go with ur gtx 580

[PassMyJoint]

@d2kool594 ur gonna need ATLEAST 750w to go with ur gtx 580, also looks like ur making gaming rig, drop down to 6 gb ram at most

[illkillyoubitch]

that board looks bent... so tuff

[zoobiewa]

Wow, you get sold by terms like "tuf" and military grade? Someone running a review channel should be able to see through the marketing bull. I hit NEXT video because now I know I can't trust you.

[taeke18]

@zoobiewa if you want to gain products from companies then you have to be optimistic about them otherwice you wont get products

[zoobiewa]

@taeke18

That's the very definition of a conflict of interest! It means that their opinions aren't opinions at all and they are simply cheap marketing tools.

[magicboy10aa]

Hey does the sata 6gb work on this board?

[lkoihsadoji]

@magicboy10aa two ports, yes.

[magicboy10aa]

@lkoihsadoji I mean does it need to haave the b3 chipset!

[wilXwyane]

@magicboy10aa This motherboard (the x58 version) doesn't have the b2 problems that the p67 model board was having, the x58 only has 2 sata III ports anyway. But the p67 version does have the B3 rev. out

[magicboy10aa]

@wilXwyane Thanks :)

[wilXwyane]

@magicboy10aa no problem!

[h0308231]

i got one for my bro for 180 dollars and it fucking great

[angelevo]

@1991ENIGMA just with asus and that website might be getting it wrong or maybe they changed the warranty.. i got this board about 3 weeks ago and it has the 5 year warranty

[TechAmazingness]

@angelevo This or Asus Rampage II Extreme?

[angelevo]

@TechAmazingness to buy? i would get this. its performance compared to the new G1 sniper by gigabyte, is almost as good. and it's not even that expensive so if on a budget, this board is great.

[tejanhazarika4]

its price is very less.............

[tejanhazarika4]

did it have heat pipeline?

[DjSuperSou1]

Q-Dimm what is it? you have not explained that :P

[angelevo]

@DjSuperSou1 quick dimm... all the "q's" mean quick... its cause most of the features are meant for quick install or quick connect..

[DjSuperSou1]

@angelevo thx. but still he forgot to tell about that :D

[IamMrRagequit]

What cooler would u recommend with this motherboard and an intel i7- 960?

[faisal2003456]

@IamMrRagequit Scythe Mugen 2 rev. B

[wilXwyane]

@IamMrRagequit I have the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus, it works great, haven't done any over clocking yet. I got it for like $30 at micro center. Try Newegg.com if you don't have a microcenter near you . My idle temps are about 27o C. and Full load i think are around 44-48o C with 1 heat sink fan. I have a CM Storm Scout with 3 fans which has great air flow

[yukikoomegamu]

@IamMrRagequit id suggest the corsair h60

[suckmyapples]

@IamMrRagequit im using a CM v8 works fine temps 20c idle

[GayPornStuntman]

@IamMrRagequit Noctua NH-D14

[ihatejustinbeib]

@IamMrRagequit

Noctua NH-D14

Best air cooler on the market, topped the corsair H70

[boomguy12345]

@IamMrRagequit

get a sabertooth p67 and sandy bridge (at least i5)

[MrComputereviews]

@IamMrRagequit nouctua NH-D14

[j4cko56]

@IamMrRagequit the stock one? unless you are going to OC it...then, a good one ;)

[guiga0cs]

@IamMrRagequit Hey man I have this motherboard with a i7 950 and it's really awesome! I use a Corsair H50 and the temperatures are cool. I haven't done the overclock yet cuz I'm so dumb that I don't know how to overclock!!!

[TheNERDcustard]

@IamMrRagequit V8 cool master :D

[orex98101]

@TheNERDcustard no way, the V6 GT is newer and better than the V8...and it also looks a LOT better... Just saying...

[iroc2515]

stop saying "ASUS" like a gay, its "ASUS" not 'ASUUUUUUUS"

[Supergibb]

@iroc2515 That's how it's pronounced r-tard.

[illkillyoubitch]

@iroc2515 He says it correctly as stated by Asus themselves. But whatever.

[kevinsmammaxd]

which one is best this one or gigabyte g1 assasin?

[austinmarques15]

@kevinsmammaxd g1 assassin

[ajaeiful]

So guys i've got 1 question whats best for high end gaming?

Sabertooth X58 With a Intel Core i7-960 CPU

Or

Sabertooth p67 With a Intel Core i7-2600k CPU ?

[IamMrRagequit]

@ajaeiful i am getting the i7- 960 with the X58

[tejanhazarika4]

@IamMrRagequit ur cpu is same as mine............

[IamMrRagequit]

@tejanhazarika4 Do u like the performance and is it OCed?

[p3rvertedn1nja]

LOL @ 3:05

[p3rvertedn1nja]

3:06 LOL sounds like a cat

[BUCKSHOTSss]

this mobo is a monster. i have it in a case with a xion 1100 watt, a evga gtx 460, ocz platinum 6 gigs of ram, a thermaltank heatsink, a seagate 1tb barracuda, all in a 932 haf case IM BI WINNING!!!! OH YEA AND THAT DUMB ASS NEON CRAB PC FAN COOLER..makes my pc look like im at a carnival...im bout to just take it out and install heatsinks on the ram....and i dont overclock or any of that

[kotsios1234567]

3:06 sorry to say that but sounds funny!

[cowlefrbeify]

doesnt say if any good for 3 way sli

[Scavenger277]

@cowlefrbeify its only 2 way sli, iv got 1 but cant use it atm

[java575]

That is a cool looking Thingymabob, and I love the green on the whatchamacallit

[suckmyapples]

@java575 hahah nice man

[ruvolk24]

I already see this seating in my HAF 932.

[Neurotripsicks]

I could build a gaming PC around this motherboard, OR I could wait for Sandy Bridge Chipset in April........hmm decisions decisions....

[dirtypupp]

@Neurotripsicks same boat, so far the only reason is see why to get a 1155 is for overclocking but i dont do that, jeesh idk what to do lol

[julianomaxter]

@PittmanLegacy yeah... 100% 2 way crossfire compatible

[julianomaxter]

@wownoob1234567890 yeas it is... sabertooth is one gaming serie

[PittmanLegacy]

Will this Motherboard Hold 2 HD 6970`s ? Or 6950`s?

[infotechsailor]

dont ask dont tell

[jonmat71]

This is a very nice motherboard, it has all the things that I just need for gaming PC, with 5 years warranty, Asus brand, dual 16x16 PCIE for sli and one more PCIE for physx and here is my setup:

Intel i7 950

Cooler Master HAF 932 Full Tower

Kingston DDR3 PC1600 12 gig

WD 1tb 7200 RPM 64mb Cache Dula Processor Sata 3 600gbs speed

2 GTX 580 SLI (1 EVGA GTX 580 SC and 1 Asus GTX 580 DirectCU II)

Cooler Master Silent Pro Gold 1200w PSU

GAME ON! good Motherboard :)

[unokilo321]

I bought this motherboard, intel core i7 950, and 12gb ddr3-1333 mushkin enhanced stiletto kit, the same in the vesta pc ncix offers, and it wouldn't post on the first try, so I hit Memok and it worked, it posted and I installed win7, but it's only showing 4gb's availible, are there any other options I need to set for it to work properly?

[SaM52461]

@unokilo321

Ummm, check the BIOS

[unokilo321]

@SaM52461 thanks, i'll check bios, and the operating system, i'm posting for a friend, I built the rig for him, and he installed windows 7 after I left, then he emailed me saying only 4gb was showing up, I was worried that something was wrong with the parts, but now i'm thinking he has a 32bit o/s i'll check later today, he asked me to stop by and check it over

[54Xe]

@unokilo321

what kind of win7??? if it's a 32-bit, then it isn't supporting more and you'd have to install a 64-bit for more ...

[unokilo321]

@54Xe it was win7, I posted for a friend, he gave me a list of problems and what he tried and asked me to post for him on fb, yt, and a few other forums. the problem was he didn't push one of the ram dimm's all the way in. that's why it wouldn't post and was only showing 4gb of ram. he has a win 7 ultimate and has since upgraded to a 990x asus maximus black edition an corsair dominator ram.

[MastaPlanMan]

Hustler!

[Gemeines]

its completely badass. that is all.

[matiasmoriconi999]

who cares about the colors?? the motherboard is great!

[MrTRISTANCOOL]

I want this board :D

[MrTRISTANCOOL]

at 5:51 the bord is bended !

[abney317]

this guy makes me lol... if you're buying a motherboard like this you aren't gonna care about the colors xD

[AusiMoney]

hi ,how big of a psu will i need with this board with a i7 950 and a hd6950 aswell as all the necessities hardrive etc? please help me 

[MrTRISTANCOOL]

@AusiMoney should try 900 or 1000 watts

[Isaidhi7]

@AusiMoney A 750W would be perfect. If you  are ever going to run crossfire. Get anywhere from 850w-1000w.
