Today's test is a little different than our usual process in that we went ahead and used each company's bundled management software at its default settings, allowing some of the value added to each board's bundle to show through. ASRock's board comes the ...

Lots of expansion options, Very stable platform, Many ASUS extras that differentiate the motherboard
Not the easiest quadGPU spacing, even though there are lots of PCIe slots
Overall the ASUS M5A99FX is an excellent motherboard for the price and application. The motherboard was rock solid stable during testing. ASUS is also bringing to the table many of the features such as its UEFI BIOS interface and ASUS Fan Xpert. Those ext...

The Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0 came well packaged and with a good bundle including that really useful Q-Connector. The board looks great and the layout is also well thought out, just what you would expect from Asus. The M5A99FX PRO R2.0 also has a good deal o...
Good pricing, Excellent software and BIOS, Good feature set (extra USB and SATA ports), Simple overclocking, Five PWM fan headers!
Not much different from past 990FX boards, Some features are essentially onetime use (BIOS FlashBack and MemOK), Dual PS/2 ports will likely go unused
