GIGABYTE 990FXA-UD5 AM3+ Motherboard Review

OCIA have posted a review of the brand new GIGABYTE 990FXA-UD5, an AMD AM3+ motherboard that is based on the 'new' 990FX northbridge and SB950 southbridge.

Here's what they had to say:

"I found the 990FXA-UD5 available online for an average price around $180. While not bad for a 990FX board with three-way graphics support, a similar equipped quad-graphics board like the UD7 or Sabertooth isn't that much more. Still, for those who want all the features of the 990FX/SB950 chipset but don't ever plan to run more than three cards, a small savings can be had here."


This seems like a great motherboard, but until AM3+ Bulldozer/Zambezi processors are released there is very little reason to buy a 990FX motherboard.
