Review on Asus M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 AM3 AMD 890GX/SB850 Motherboard - 6 SATA USB 3.0, ATX by David Pullen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great start for a powerful machine

This motherboard is popular for a reason. With all the features it includes, it's definitely a great investment for the price you pay. I have no doubt that there will be high-performance PC enthusiasts who would prefer a higher level, but for $150 it's hard to find too many other motherboards that can compete with this package. With so many USB ports, full SATA support, GPU and RAM/CPU boost capabilities, it's a great buy and should give you plenty of power. I recommend that if you're looking to get a motherboard like this, spend a few bucks more to get a powerful processor so you really get the most bang for your buck with this motherboard. I installed a 6 core AMD Phenom II and it worked like a dream. This car handles everything I throw at it.

Pros
  • Great product
Cons
  • Requires socket
