Cons: It's dead already.

Pros: One of maybe 4 AMD motherboards that are able to run SLI.
Comment:
It's unfortunate that Asus and Gigabyte don't make more AMD cards that can run SLI. Asus has a couple, but they're quite old. Running this with Phenom II X6 1055T, GTX 460, Silverstone 1000W, 8gigs of DDR3 G. Skills Ripjaws. Stock everything, not overclocked then just died.

Cons: Sata ports are placed on the edge... kindof hard to get at.only 4 USB ports on the back... Keyboard, Mouse, Printer, external drive... and you're out (although 4 USB headers on the board)Floppy connector?? why :(No sata 3 support

Pros: Tri-SLI supporton board HDMIlooks like an elaborate setup to cool the board
Comment:
No issues with this board... seems to be chuggin along just fine. Although I did notice in the manual that it said there is a 15GB RAM limit. On board HDMI could come in handy in the future.

works just fine, remember to download the nvidia sli driver for seven or vista, wait for the sistem to show the sli mode and select the one you need refer to the mobo manual about how to properly enable it. this suport hibridpower and hibrid performance mode.

Took me like a minute to install everything once I screwed it into my case. This motherboard is fast, efficient, quiet, cool, has lots of features and has a good price to.

I have had this board running for about a week. It is very particular as to what video cards to run. The user manual is extremely poor and provides little help. Example they sent me a version of the manual with info to hook up a 4 pin processor power source in an 8 pin slot. The 8 pin power slot had a small plastic cap over 4 of the pins. I called support and they said a number of people had tried to hook up the 4 pin and the result was an underpowered processor. They had no idea why it was there. I looked up the pertinent manual on the support site and lo and behold, it was correctly identified as an 8 pin power source. There were some other things that had to be figured out as well. Had I not built a few, I might have made some costly errors. Unfortunately, their support is a burden to say the least. The most aggravating thing so far is the fight between the on board video and the video card I want to use. I am working on that. Probably will have to disable the on board card

This is a great mobo, and in fact, the only one I found for AMD3 socekt with DDR3 mem, and SLI ready. SO if thats what you are looking for, you wont find anything else yet :) Booted up right out of the box, my only complaint, is the placement for the front panel connections such as the 1394 and front panel switch and LED connections, if you want to run the latest graphic cards in multiple SLI, then you cant use the 3 pcie slot as the card will not seat properly due to the connectors on the board, so have to use the top 2 pcie slots.

Works awesome with a phenom II 965 and GTX 275. Contrary to the reviewer below me, there are more overlocking options than just 10, 15, and 20. Those overclocking options are the overclocking switch on motherboard. Should you want to, you can go into the cell menu and adjust the frequency, multiplier, and other settings manually. No problems at all with connecting SATA connections on motherboard, then again, I have a full tower Coolermaster Cosmos case. SLI chip and graphics chip run really hot due to poor application of and poor quality thermal paste. Recommend taking those heatsinks off, getting off the thermal paste, and putting on arctic silver ceramique (so that it doesn't short out your motherboard).

sata are hard to plug in in mid tower if hdd bays are side mounted, but other than that, wow, its a fast board with all the bells and whistles, has blue leds so it shines bright when there is cpu activity and power. comes with 4 sata cables, one dual SLI bridge, 1 ide (useless), 2 molex to sata adapters (turn two molex into 4 sata power), 3 q adapters for case pwr, restsw, etc. has 24 and 8 pin power so get the right psu, recommend at least 750watt for half decent rig. threw phenom II x4 3.2ghz 955 black and 8 gb of xm3 1600mhz ram on it with 9800gt 1 gb ddr3 vid card to blow away all my friends setups.

running it with a 965 phenomII i wish it had more over clock options, in general you have 3 options for over clocking the chip 10, 15, and 20 percent. gets over 16,000 benchmark out of the box with 3dmark06 and 2 gts250 sli and windows7 pro os. over 18,000 out of the box benchmark using the windows xp os. over clocking could possibly get over or near 20,000 benchmark on either windows. 2 pcie x16 slots running at x16 if you run 3 cards it is x16 and x8 x8. not many boards are running 2 x16 slots as x16 especialy at the price of this board.
