Fantastic AM3 board for O.C.
I personally choose this board over the Gigabite one at the time because it was capable of excepting more RAM. It wasn't until i had bought it and started to research it that i learned what i had gotten myself into. It comes from the ROG division of ASUS also known as the Republic of Gamers. So if you own any of their equipment you become part of their republic. At this point i'm now part of a republic of gamers and a cult of razer. Which actually does make it a little bit more fun to own products like that. The board itself is a work of art. I am quite proud of the entire i system i built with it and it serves as an excellent platform for any high performance lower cost system. ROG recently released a newer version known as the extreme which does add the advantage of built in bluetooth, more PCI-E X16's and the lucid hydra. However at a cost of 100 dollars more and the AM3+ sockets and bulldozer AMD processors due to launch in a few more months it may not be worth it. The Formula board was quite easy to simply put a bluetooth adapter into the USB slot and as far as performance is about the same with the extreme version. This board has many little features built into it. There are one touch O.C. buttons right on it. a Bios reset feature where it will go to the last known stable configuration if it crashes during O.C. It came with a free year of kaspersky antivirus. The phenom II 1090t i put into it takes full advantage of the core unlocking feature as well as the O.C software. It also features a USB cable to perform what is known as ROG connect. Where you can connect a laptop to the USB and the other end to the ROG connect usb port and tweak settings for memory, CPU, bridge voltages right from your laptop. The extreme version lets you do this through the built in bluetooth but i would imagine you would want to be near the desktop when tweaking it. Over all i am quite pleased with this product i would highly recommend it to anyone considering a High end inexpensive build, since the bulldozer platform will be a bit pricey, If you have the extra 100 bucks and a mixed bag of Nvidia ATI/AMD graphics cards laying around then the extreme version would be the better buy for the lucid hydra chip only. The bluetooth feature is easily added to this board with a cheap USB adapter, it just can't be OC'd through your I/android/blackberry phone or laptop.

Way cheaper then Intel Similar performance.
I love that the performance is nearly comparable to the core i7 but the cost is so much less then Intel. The other major factor in purchasing this processor is the company i work for sells our products to AMD but intel refuses to do business with us so i would rather support AMD by building a computer using their processor. The machine i built is rather quick the cores are all unlocked and slightly O.C. with no stability issues. I would highly recommend this processor to anyone looking to build a fast inexpensive computer.
