Review on πŸ’» ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 AM3+ Motherboard - AMD 990X, SATA 6Gb/s, USB 3.0, ATX by Travis Karren

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The core functionality of the board works fine, but I'm having an issue with the onboard.

The main functions of the board work fine, but I have a problem with the integrated audio on the board, there is no sound coming out of my speaker. Only one who has this problem, just google "M5A99X no sound", you will see what I experienced. There were many home-made solutions provided by many users, including reinstalling audio driver, reinstalling PCI VGA card, etc., but this should not depend on the user's efforts to get the card's basic functions working. The board overclocked well; my 8350 processor is running on 4.4. Ghz, runs stable, two stars deducted because of sound problems.

Pros
  • Happy for the moment
Cons
  • Negative impression
