hi new to this but I will give it a go (hope to win lol) anyway I got the asrock extreme 4 990fx ebuyer could not wait to get it but when I did it did not fit in my zalaman case as the heat sink on the mother board for the V8 + 2 Power Phase was pretty big so I had to cut the case up to fit it in around the water cooler as the water cooler could not fit anywhere else on the case but I broke my case so I had to buy a bigger case the nzxt h440 which it fitted it in but getting back to the MB its great ,The innovative features include the ASRock signature XFast USB , good feature . loads of fan pin headers (can never have enough) good over clocking , great bios settings 2 x usb 3 , 4 x usb 2 at the back , great for crossfire and nice lights on the on off MB switch (on/off and reset buttons) .this board features Premium Gold Caps, advanced V8 + 2 Power Phase Design and multi-GPU options. ASRock AMD 9 series mainboards also allow users to easily unleash their system's hidden USB performance with ASRock's innovative XFast USB Technology. Designed for the next generation computing, this board supports AM3+ socket and is compatible of 8-Core series processors . Do you desire to make SLI technology running on AMD motherboard l, ASRock 990FX Extreme4 allows users to take advantages of both CrossFireX and SLI technologies , 3 pci express slots cater for multi-GPU settings, manageable smart switches and Dr. Debug, offering flexible options which will appeal to DIY users. Beside its onboard equipments, this board also features superior software tools such as mouse-controllable Graphical UEFI over all a great MB .
