have 4 custom built PCs and 6 PCs total. With that said. I have two AMD Systems, and while I elect to use ASUS for Intel, I have found Gigabyte is my brand for AMD. I bought this Motherboard with the intention of having an easy time getting a sixcore 3.3ghz FX Chip up and running, and I did. The board has loads of features, great slot selection, it has 3 PCIe slots (x16) and works with a Nvidia GeForce GTS 460 I am using (and also another card in another slot, an ATI FirePro 4800) and has a PCIE USB3 (extra 2 port) card in it, running great. Used an 850w Power Supply, which seemed ample and the motherboard has a good standard bios (its not UEFI for you UEFI fans out there) but it is a standard old Award Bios. One thing I noticed is with win7 ultimate there is no sleep mode setting for the PC obvious but you can still set one if you want to (I do not but I notice these things and report them). If this MB is as reliable as my 880FX Gigabyte or numerous other Gigabyte boards in the past have been (I Been using Gigabyte since before they had US website, in other words when gigabyte.com.tw was the only one out there - yeah about 15 years) and they always come true for me with AMD. I have only built two intel based machines in the last 15 years (AMD is usually my preference but I went with two lga 2011 3960Xtreme's as AMD cannot compete with it) as I had the cash. Interesting facts is this scores well on benchmarks (the FX chip) against my 3960X's at 1/4 the price. This motherboard looks like yet another winner by Gigabyte (I have never had a Gigabyte board fail, or be DOA on me. I can't say that for ASUS) in general the computers get older than they are worth to still use before a problem with their boards pops up. I recommend this board to anyone who wants good slot diversity for expansion, good compatibility with diverse video, and wants to run an FX Chip on an AM3+. Very satisfied with the purchase, and Gigabyte as a motherboard make overall.Read full review
I bought this board from reviews that I have read over the net. They all listed it as a good solid motherboard. I bought my first one here on Ebay and I liked the look and how well it could be upgraded. My first board (from Ebay) arrived in a paper wrapping around the motherboard box, they did not even included the cardboard motherboard holder. Let's just say that it was DOA on arrival. I really liked the look and other tech spec of the board to re-buy it from Newegg with the refund I got back from the buyer on Ebay. It's an excellent produced that can hold it's own and then some in it's price class. If you have an extra $50-70 US to spend, then go with the Asus Crosshair as it can handle higher voltages for higher OCing. CONS: (A) This motherboard comes with a load line calibration in the bios, but is not as tight as the Asus but does a Very Good Job at keeping it closes to spec. So far there have been no massive V droops to cause BSOD's. (B) The setup of the Video Slots IMO is FUBARED as it is advertized as a (3) Three Way Crossfire motherboard, but you have to stack your 3 video cards on top of each other. To run (2) Two Way Crossfire at X16 you have to use slot 2 & 4, which sandwiches them together for no airflow. I also bought 2 of the Gigabyte Windforce 3 HD7950's and to get them to run with proper airflow, I have to use the FIRST x16 slot and the BOTTOM x8 slot. Luckily I had previously purchased a pair of Sapphire Toxic HD6950's that came with all cables needed, including extra long Crossfire Bridge Clips.Read full review
Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD5 Ver. 3 with AMD FX-9590 overclocked using Corsair h100 water cooler, dual GTX970 GPUs using SLI, maxed out with 32GB of DDR3 1333 RAM, This gaming rig rocks! At first I burned my 750W PSU so I used a 250W to run the fans and lights and a 750W for the mother board and GPUs. NOTE: the GA-990FXA-UD5 Ver. 1 does not support the AMD FX-9590, you need the 3.0 or 3.1
