ASUS M4A88T-V EVO/USB3 ATX AMD Motherboard

Comment:
Wonderful overclocker. Very stable BIOS has a ton of alternatives. Core unlocker functions flaswlessly (assuming your CPU has 4 very good cores like mine). Heatsink on voltage regulators seems loose but not adequate to come off totally. Hasn't causes any difficulties.

Good attributes overclocks and unlocks cores. Onboard video is decent. It wouldn't enter bios via my kvm switch, but thats my dilemma.

On-board videoLot's of overclocking capacityHas halfway decent computer softwareTurbo unlocker wonderful for people who don't want to go through the difficulty of a full overclockA lot of sata and usb ports. Firewire port a plus mainly because I have an old firewire iPod.USB three.Lot's of space for upgrade in the future. Not a big fan of the color, but that's not why I bought it. Good for a 500-900 dollar make.

Effortless setup - installed all perephials Ɩ Core Phenom, 8 gig ram, 120 gig SSD) and booted suitable up. a retaining clip fpor one of the pcie slots had snapped off in the course of shipping but because I am not in will need of this slot it is no concern, on the other hand, packing could have been far better and may possibly have prevented this from happening. Lately, items I get from new egg are cushioed utilizing brown paper all balled up. I think this form of packing is somewhat inadequate. None

For 100$ you cannot ask more out of a motherboard. This one is ready for AMDs 6 cores and you have integrated video card for anyone who won't be playing games.

Simple Install; one of the simplest boards to install I have owned. Nice spacing about the components.

The only OC is in the BIOS setting themselves as DDR3 1600 is supposedly an overclock, even although ASUS lists the G. Skill Ripjaws RAM I installed in the MB manual as approved.The fix is uncomplicated: Enter the BIOS setup and Save and Exit again.This resolved itself right after the Win 7 install. You have to load the LAN and USB 3 drivers from the ASUS Support DVD included with the MB.

Superior I/O an Layout configuration. forget about employing their overclocking software program, It will crash your laptop or computer faster than you can say why me, and then your running with three overclocked cores even though your core unlocker is engaged. Very touch and unstable, I can say the exact same for the greater priced AMD board I bought....A little far better, but you have to manually clock it. download the board manual and study it initial. Get the suggested Memory, CPU and GO INTEL Before ITS TO LATE. AMD is rapidly in the right hands but there is a spike strip ahead if you push it even inside its specs your setting your self up for the blue screen. I have the M4A88TD-V EVO/USB3 now. Its ok with stock O.C. profiles, but nonetheless AMD, I purchased the finest SDRAM, AMD3 phenom ii X4 965 and nonetheless dont anticipate to get over 3700mhz stable, and this hasn't effected efficiency, but the SATA port are configured incorrect, sata 2 is flipped with sata 3, I can live with this unless it causes a hick up down the road.

Has a lot of characteristics and locations to plug stuff into! Overclocks incredibly nicely and lots of tweeks to do! Athlon II X3 435 at three.55GHZ ྶ% OC). 2gbX4 Ƙgig) Adata gaming series ram ddr3 1600 at 1626. every thing for a excellent setup is on this board! pretty much... The 1 large thing i did not like is that there is not a way to over volt my GPU card. perhaps in a bios update they will consist of this feature, but for now i ought to give it 4 eggs. The ram is placed a small high on the board so i couldnt use 1 of my top fans, but this is minor. make sure that you read the manual! 1 of the switches on the board for core unlocker was switched on and my laptop or computer wouldnt boot till i figured it out. make certain you know what your performing with this boar. It is very tweekish.

Booted up 1st try. I ought to have purchased this board very first I'm operating this board with an AMD 1090T, G.SKILL Sniper 8GB RAM -F3-12800CL9D-8GBSR-, a Corsair 650W energy supply, a Xigamatek AIO water cooler, in a cooler master HAF 922 case, and working with 3 sata difficult drives for a total of 3300 GB of storage. The board configured and POSTed with no issues and almost everything functions fantastic in UBUNTU and WIN 7. The onboard graphics and sound are also pretty decent, I haven't figured out how to configure the hdmi output under UBUNTU but but I haven't worried about it considering that the vga worked, i'll get to it eventually even though.

Lots of capabilities. Lots of positive critiques! Has everything I need. Not the most current and greatest? Originally got the M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 for my quad core 64 bit construct. Had issues with finding 8gb ƒx4) memory to function. Read that other people were having similar difficulties with memory slots on that board. Returned it for this board and...voila...works like a charm.

Good Obtain AWSOME DEAL AND EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE. Straightforward TO INSTALL Quite Helpful TECH Support AND Simple SETUP. demands a small more information.

Board was super uncomplicated to set up, it recognized my 12GB of Ripjaws, every little thing was excellent, loaded all my software onto the 1TB difficult drive, all went smoothly. The HDMI connection would not work, I did a RMA, shipping it tomorrow and wait for a replacement. I was certainly satisfied with the board until the HDMI did not perform.

Comment:
Fantastic! Effortless to set up, simple to unlock a six-core AMD! Almost everything installs effortless, decent directions! The back plate is extremely inexpensive, it pretty much looked as if it had not been finished in production as there we tiny tabs all more than the thing that has to be removed or bent for every little thing to fit together. Just a note but no large deal. Has a neat feature, a small mini-OS that boots immediately if you want it to. If you pc is hardlined to the internet you can even get online by way of the instant booting mini-OS instead of going all the way to windows.

Uncomplicated to install, wonderful looking heat sinks, not 1 hitch - literally installed, hooked up and came proper up. Firewire port for my HV40 HD camera. USB three., DDR3, AM3. No cons. I used this to upgrade my old Asus board - I wanted DDR3, AM3 and a firewire port. I have this with a AMD 4X 955, 8G of Gskill DDR3 RAM and an older Asus video card. WEI gives everything a 7. or higher other than my old HDD ƕ.9)

From ASUS, on of the reasonably priced reliable brands.Bought this as a combo deal with the Phenom II X4 965. The rams I purchased, G.Skill ddr3 1600 <- the one with more than 1000 5egg reviews was not compatible.... my fault but I believed these two would run with no difficulty.YOU Need to USE THE RAM Supplied IN THE COMPATIBILITY LIST. kept finding BSOD with the unlisted rams.so prior to purchasing, check ASUS's support web page. GO ahead, its reliable and I would certainly recommend it.Oh yeah, the fan attachment for the Phenom II x4 was somewhat tight... I haven't turned the notch to squeeze the heat sink to the CPU because its already tight sufficient;

Purchased this motherboard for my new machine a week ago and it's great. Excellent value for the price as it comes with on-board graphics, two USB 3.0 ports, 3PCI ports as well as 2PCI-E16 slots.Overall I am very satisfied by this product and would definitely purchase it again.

Great looking mother board, everything you need for a new age mother board with DDR3 memory and HDVI, HDMI,plugs it makes it usable at many different points without a video card. Have heard good things about this boards over clocking, haven't had a chance to try it out yet as my ram is delayed, but i will update.

Are you kidding? This board was the core component of the easiest and most trouble-free create I ever did. The integrated video ATI Radeon 4250 is really excellent as lengthy as you're not a hard-core gamer. I utilized it even though I was waiting for my EVGA GeForce GTX 460 to arrive. The latter installed with out any challenge too. This board seems incredibly rapidly to me, but I haven't accomplished a build in practically two years.

I was looking for an all-in-one ATX. Bought this one for a budget build. It's a great board with many nice features like USB3 HDMI and lots of USB headers ports. Using AMD 955BE and 8GB with Windows 7.I have no problem with the board, it's rock solid. The only minor cons were the placement of the SATA and IDE. If only SATA were angle makes install much cleaner, as well as IDE should face vertical instead of horizontal. Those of not major issue. I'd recommend this board for anyone on budget build. Awesome.
