Switching from Gigabyte 770T-UD3P to ASUS M4A79XTD EVO mainboard AMD 790X

Yep... My gigabyte will not run 8gb of ddr3-1600

This shiny new Asus board should be here tommorrow, not too many reviews/feedback out there but I played with the 785 Evo and it was solid. Ran my gskill (all 8gb) at full ddr3-1600 with no adjustments! Plus I'll be able to upgrade to crossfire in the future... Overclocking looks easy too. 2 oz copper and 8+2 power phase design to ensure constant voltages

Well, my board STILL is not here and it is STILL listed as in stock on zipzoomfly website.

I got it for the special of $95 shipped... I cancelled my ewiz order which was $122 shipped and would have been here by now.... Grrrrrrrrr I want my board!! The board looks even more AWESOME than you think in person, just wait, lol

Hey Kenube,

Did you get your board yet? I got mine, make sure to update to the latest bios ASAP to fix the CPU NB (to enable the cpu/nb frequency setting). Mine is running at 2600mhz
