My review

ordered this motherboard 5,6 days ago,got it yesterday.
installation goes pretty well.i had phenom x2 550.
cons:- am3+ (supports all old as well as upcoming amd processors)
-usb 3.0? (future of usb)
-heatsink between input/output ports and socket( provides efficient cooling)
-an epic bios (help overclocking and unlocking)
-supports 4,5 fans( more cooling)
-supports crossfirex setup (future of gfx cards?)
-supports HD audio and 6.1 systems.
-supports 32 gb dual channel ddr3 ram.

conc.
-no integrated gfx card( no vga port).
so you need to install extra graphics card.
(i dont think this is really a con. its designed for gamers and 3d designers who need future proof pc in low price range.)

if you want to design a gaming rig with amd processor,simply buy it now and dont forget to thump up my review if it helps

-thanks and regards

Superb mobo

This one is a superb motherboard. The UEFI BIOS and the features like mouse controlled BIOS tweaking makes this an ideal mobo for the price. I was really searching for the "EVO" or "PRO" version of this mobo which has some extra ports and some extras, since those are not available here in flipkart I went for this one.

Pros:-
-Asus AI Suite has features like FanXpert which lets you adjust the fan speed according to your taste
-TurboVevo overclocks the configuration without any effort from the user withot losing stability. (My 1075t went 3.5Ghz and memory timings were decreased)
-2xUSB 3.0
-6xUSB2.0( You will never run out of ports :D)
-Optical audio(I don't have one) and upto 7.1 speakers(I have 2.1)
-CrossfireX(The black one is x4 PCIe in the size of x16, so you can't SLI with this)
-Supports FX series processors.(BTW FX series processors don't perform so well. So stick with a phenom for now and pair it with a FX 2nd gen when it arrives.)
-Upto 32GB 1866Mhz RAM.(I got 8GB)
-No itegrated GPU( Yes It's a pro. Reason to buy a good GPU :D . I got a radeon 6850)

Cons:-
Nothing

Nice Motherboard.

Okay let me come straight to the point. I know that this board is packed with lots of good/amazing features. I'll keep it short and precise.

> Please consider buying a bigger cabinet if you want to use this motherboard. You may face difficulty setting it up. But I'm sure if you're an expert you'll be able to handle it.

> No Vga/DVI/HDMI port available on this board. So make sure to keep an extra graphics card available in case of video related troubleshooting

> I wish there was a crossfire bridge included with the motherboard.

> GUI Bios setup is really awesome, the best I've ever seen.

> ASUS AI Suite II is one of the best utility included.

Overall I'm very satisfied with the motherboard. A very good Motherboard indeed !!!
