@Casuality07 I own it with similar specs ... It's a great motherboard and can even bring up good gaming performance. Try it out with your system, should work out!

[Casuality07]

i just got this motherboard is it any good? im gonna use it on a corsair HX 650w, intel core i5 dual core -650 3.2ghz, XFX radeon HD 6850, 8gb RAM, win7x64, is it a fail buy? :(

[GodlessIrish]

@olivierhacking you can run a gtx 580 at full potential with this motherboard, is PCI-E 2.0 X16 and thats what a gtx 580 need to run awesome

[olivierhacking]

Hey @TigerDirectBlog

I currently have this board and I know it supports PCI-E 2.0 x16. Does this mean I can run a GTX 580 with its full potential? Correct me if I am wrong, but if it DID have a PCI-E 1.0 it would not be able to use the gtx 580's full potential? Thanks!

Allright it may be a system problem or the graphics card. But i play metro on high dx 10 no aa and still its not perfect, But when the ati controle center does make alot diffrence in games.

[iamthecomplain]

@Ankido94 lol..

[rullatormannen]

And its not the motherboard that makes so you can max the grafic

[Ankido94]

Hey im no kid, Get your facts right,

[waihung]

@Ankido94 lol the motherboard is not the one to be blamed. learn something kid before u post bullshit

[Ankido94]

People i tell you this rignt now, If you want to be a real gamer dont do like me and buy this motherboard, i have the i5 the xfx 5770 4gb ram and i cant even max bad company 2. So not this one note!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[kwoods83]

I am running this board with an i5-750 2.67 @3.8ghz, Cooler Master V8 cpu cooler, 4GB G.Skills Ripjaws DDR3 1333@2550, EVGA GTS250 1GB, OCZ Fatal1ty 550W PSU. All in a Cooler Master Storm Scout case. Runs super quiet and as long as you're not an extreme gamer, it's a perfect build. No GPU OC yet, but not really worth it on a 250. Runs Crysis Warhead good though.

@lylix123 nvm i got a 5770 now

[lylix123]

@CobraProductionsTV

[Sekcja0serowa]

[CobraProductionsTV]

Will a ATI HD 5850 fit on this motherboard ?

[TheAloiser]

im going to buy this board for my i5 system.

[GaryH315223]

Well, AMD is not for gaming, and this is a gaming board.

[Macsimus007]

What would be a good heatsink to pair up with this board.
