This motherboard from Asus comes ready for ATI’s crossfire. As a board in general ASUS has done a fantastic job at making a board that is very overclockable with very little adjustment of voltages and other settings. Attention to quality is clear in the ability to overclock easily and making it ready to do so.
As reported at bit-tech, this board has a pretty good layout and performs well in most of the tests performed on it. Although 3DMark05 dropped to the desktop after about 17 hours or so, the 1380MHz hypertransport speed attained is the highest ever seen by the guys over at bit-tech.
One of the only niggles they had was that the headers for the Silicon Image 3132 SATA controller were located at the back of the board by the I/O panel.
Overall, whatever options you may be looking for in a motherboard, for example whether to go for SLI or Crossfire or which kind of chipset you should go for, this board takes the cake for overclocking.
If overclocking is your game then this board is a vital part of your arsenal.
