ASUS Crosshair III Formula Cometh

[soryuuha]

Wow, I never thought Asus will bring Crosshair III Formula with AMD chipset :rock:

it seems nforce 980a still unable to deliver ACC

[TheMailMan78]

WOW thats a nice looking board. Any estimates on price yet?

[ShadowFold]

I'm guessing 230-250 since the Crosshair II is 230$.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking Shadow?

[AllHopeIsGone1]

I want for my PII 955 rig soon.

Hopefully we shall see this board by the Summer..if so..I'm buying when that SOB hit's the shelves.

I really wish EVGA had a competitor in the AM3 field..I enjoyed all my EVGA product's greatly.

Is it me, or is AMD really lacking with stylish/competitive boards compared to i7 boards?

And all the AMD boards are shit brown..can't compare to the Foxconn, or EVGA color scheme's at all.

EVGA are Intel fanboys ASUS and DFI make better X58 boards imo, my dad has a Rampage II Extremulus X58 or what ever it's called and it's pretty damn sweet. I only got the MSI that I have because it was on sale for 90$ I really like the looks of the MSI 790FX that's AM3, the blue and black go really good together. Same with ASUS' 790GX.

EVGA are Intel fanboys and it suck's. They have lifetime warranty on all their product's when registered with them which I believe is fantastic. Not a lot of companies do that.

I would love to see a nice Red/Black loadout like the Foxconn Bloodrage but in AMD format.

This MSI? It's OK...but still look's bland really from a top view.

And this Asus? Still has that shit brown looking color..can't really stand it.

There shuldnt be 2 per company even tho there are no intel 790FXs lol. I love gygabyte and have never had a prob with them i wanted a UD3 but theres no way id pass this sick @$$ board for it, sorry. Also feel free to speculate your brains out: Will this board support (DDR3 1800 :OC) Usualy they kick it up more with ROG boards (never owned one just noticed) do u think it will Officialy support higher???

but rampage are high end intel and WTF are u talking about. 890FX is not the name of the next chipset, is RD890 and, hell, dont post if u dont know what are u talking about.

[fullinfusion]

Id say the RD890 is considered the 890FX to some mate....No big deal... we know what he was saying

Hahaha, I might even get it and slowly build a second rig around the PII 955....oh yeeeeeah! I'm pretty impressed with the digi surround sound I get off the onboard on my current M3A79-T so I'm not too worried about another PCIe slot. 2 is good, plus I have 4 on the M3A79-T.

Me neither what kinda clocks can u get now with your M3A79-T 4.2 or so? Ive been reading alot of USER reviews (since webistes dont know how to oc AMDs) and they are about there.

Well, I'm running a 9850BE right now. 2.5 stock and 3.1 stable with a good air cooler. Liquid? Haven't been there (yet?). The M3A79-T is a jewel of a board. Good luck finding it now...you might find one open box. My 9850 is currently clocked @ 2.8Ghz only because I'm crunching for WCG.

The M3a79-t might have been renamed M4A79-T AM2+ version at least that's what I see on Newegg.

The onboard sound as I said is awesome. In COD4 I hear grenades exactly where they land on my Logitech Z-5500's. (And I run in the other direction! )

ohhhh i thought u were refering to the AM3 ASUS board out now. ("4.2 or so" air some 4.5(validated)) I know that board u have now btw, Well my upadate is long over due lol im on a 64 3400 @2.7O.C. Somthing told me to wait just a lil longer b4 getting the GIG-UD3 and i know why now lol. I had to read the article a couple times diff places to BELEIVE it was 790FX!!!! lol. And yes i hear the Xifis are awsome but, some slam it and say its not the real xifi but a lower version i was reading about that on the Rampage Extreme?? Who cares I know its 4324234235435X better than my onboard. I have the money now but itll prolly be a MONTH b4 it goes to newegg (at the least). I have my full list ready I just wish maybe they release some more ram... I notice all manufatures right now are tri this and tri that sleeping on 1600 DDR3 i know that could be faster. With any luck this will oficialy support (1800OC) like it does 1600 now???

hehehe.... I hear ya bro. I might go soundblaster but I just riigeed up from an Athlon 800Mhz. I got my current rig which is kickass btw to hold me over.

Ya I was talkin bout maybe slowly building an AMD dragon platform with this board and the 955. That would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet! but $$$$ lackin which is why I said slow nellie!!!

But manus are not sleeping on 1600...they got some good stuff out there....check around Kit! And welcome to TPU btw!!!
