So today i present you my present time system, 1 month old. After some 1150 system, 1 month ago i switched to another platform composed esentially from: Asrock 990FX Extreme9 Motheboard 180$. Cpu: FX 8300, 120$  Coole: AIO Raijintek Triton 100$ PSU: Cougar GX 800. Case : Corsair 400R. VGA : GigabyteGTX 750Ti    Only the motheboard, cpu and cooler are new, the rest are old. Reason to chose it, the combination of a top high end motheboard and a very good cpu at 300$ was a wonder .On Intel i would have to pay 400$ for i5 4690k with a much weaker motheboard. In fact with 400$ i bough motheboard, cpu and a very good AIO cooler to overclock them like hell. Now why i chose Asrock 990FX Extreme9: Because it's the top of AMD AM3+ motheboards. It's released not so long ago, so a motheboard very compatible with the latest AMD processors. It's has a very strong VRM: Advanced 12 + 2 Power Phase Design - Dual-Stack MOSFET (DSM). It has 8 SATA3 ports. Because supports 3SLI 16/X8/X8 something which on budget Intel platform 1150/1155 almost doesn't exits. Also i like the look of the radiator on VRM,NB and the look of the motheboard in general. So what came from this combination??? Some madness as always with Asrock 4800Mhz 24/7 stable configuration posible. And some 5100Mhz Cinebench 8.81points.  Thanks to both motheboard and processor.   So thank you very much Asrock again for a wonderful job on this motheboard! PS: Sorry for my dust in case, i have to clean it up these days... ------------- Live free or die hard |

| ASRock mobo to me seem to be quality boards (I'm using the 990FX Extreme3 with FX-4100 CPU) Overclock is amazing with these boards, I managed to get aircooled 4.7GHz on Linux and 4.2GHz (BSoD if any higher) from my 3.4GHz without struggle for the board. Using it with a 5850 FX and 6 HDDs (external raid card due to SATA port locations) |
