included accessories are 4 sata cables, 2 with right angle connectors, 2 with straight connectors, sli bridge, driver and software cd

Solid Quality, Supports FX Vishera/Piledriver Out of the box.

The only reason I chose this board is because it's the cheapest on offer with ASUS USB Flashback feature, which lets you update BIOS even without CPU and memory installed. Something like that would come handy if you're not sure if the board supports FX-8350 "Vishera" out of the box (if it needs a BIOS update to do that). To my delight, this board came with out-of-the-box support for my FX-8350 "Vishera" processor.

The construction and build quality of the M5A99FX Pro R2.0 is solid. It is we...

Awesome board.

I built my PC using this motherboard. I used an AMD FX-8320, 8GB of Kingston HyperX RAM, and the system is running beautifully. When this board comes in stock, go for it with your eyes closed.

Pros: Easy to use, excellent features, solid build quality, supports upto AMD FX-9590. it also comes with the latest BIOS preloaded.

Cons: None.

Great Mobo

This is one of the best motherboards for AM3 sockets. I had a MSI board before with AMD FX 8320 but it could not handle the temperatures which reached more than 70, inspite of multiple cabinet fans and got burnt, but this board is really keeping it cool, the temperatures rarely reach up to 50 degrees.
