best of the best

Best board for this price. u can SLI Corssfire and overclock K series processors upto 4.8ghz. Besides, it is a ROG board, so u can connect ur laptop n use it to overclock ur proc. There is just one catch if u plan to SLI or crossfire; the GPU's will be too close to each other n might build up heat n that is it, also there is no XIFI audio chip, be aware.

Absolutely AWESOME

Worth every rupee spent on it, and more. No problem in installing it. Was worried if the cooler (CM Hyper 212 EVO) would prevent installing my Corsair Vengeance RAM, however there is just enough room to put the RAM in the first slot and the cooler in the default push configuration.
