Superbly built, superbly featured and superbly cheap!!!

First of all, I'm not a hardcore gamer or anything, but sometimes i do play some high graphic games like crysis2 and NFS The Run.

So now to my personal opinion and experience ; I cannot be more satisfied with this motherboard. When I opened the box and took it in my hand I was truly amazed by its built quality and design. I've fused the AMD Bulldozer FX-4100 procesor, 4gb corsair xms3 (1600mhz) and XFX HD Radeon 6770 to this mobo and I'm so much satisfied by the way this whole package perfor...

Good Motherboard

I bought this mobo and paired it with an AMD 8150-FX. I am aware that another reviewer had said that his mobo had required flashing to enable it to be used with an 8120-FX. However, I did not have this problem and my CPU was supported out of the box.

Much of this has to do with the the Asus BIOS revision. I had rev. 1100 - the 8150-FX is supported from rev. 0502 onwards. To know your BIOS revision look at the bar-coded sticker on the mobo near the 24V connecter. The last 4 digits will give t...

everything you need

This is a very good motherboard. Absolutely great for any kind of work. Anyone who wants a good amd mobo , read the product info and take it without any second thoughts. But I recommend a good '450 W PSU' for this.

pro -
- memok switch which makes recovery from boot failure an absolute breeze.
- core unlocker hotkey makes it easy to unlock processor without going into the bios.
- six SATA 6 gb/s ports (mobo comes with two cables)
- two USB 3.0 ports.
- comes with very good software(bundled...

This is a Great Product!!! Very happy with it.

I own this product and this is an ace product. For AMD this one is great. I have an AMD FX6100 hooked onto it. The features you get with this motherboard are simply amazing. It's the best motherboard I ever bought.
The best thing I like about this is the MEMOK! Switch:
One day my PC wouldn't boot up and I just opened up my cabinet and I saw a RED LED Light continuously ON. I checked out the manual to see what it was. It was a memory issue and all I had to do was press the MEMOK! button next...

Best AMD MotherBoard in this range

In Rs.5000.00 range, this is one of the best motherboard for AMD processors. AMD 880G Chipset and AMD SB850. True USB3.0 and SATA3 (6 Gb/s). AMD Radeon HD 4250 onboard graphics. What more can you expect at this price-range. And of course Asus's great build quality. Very nice board.

I built a PC for my friend. I added Radeon 5570 graphics card; but I'm sure the onboard graphics card itself has enough juice for normal applications and low-end gaming.

Available cheapest on Flipkart. My local h...
