ASUS M4A79XTD EVO AM3 Crossfire DDR3 Motherboard Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips
www.ncix.com This board features most of the features you need for a good value gaming rig including Crossfire, DDR3, and Phenom II X6 support, without any of the fluff that you don’t need like USB3.0 and SATA3. That said if you want the latest features, an 890GX board might be the way to go.
should I get Asus M4A79XTD or the Asus M4A89TD Pro/USB 3.0.. and Im thinking of putting 2 Sapphire 5770(Jupiter XT). The M4A79XTD is $100 but the M4A89TD is $175. Please someone answer!!
Why do all AMD Boards have LONG names??
@fthis12345 fu fthis.
@olmatenightfox I agree! Intel is making good processors but they fuck you up because of the price. $999 for the i7 Extreme?! the AMD 6 core is only $200
can i core unlock a Phenom x2 550 or 555 BE??
good review….but gay reviewER…lol.

@homes24 Lmfao.
6:35 “That is defensively the ideal configuration for those sluts” — lol
@migoffspring Get the 955, 2gb more RAM and if you are on a budget the a standard 5770.
@wiifan62 This board is perfect for the configuration. I would suggest to get 4 GB 1600mhz DDR3 Corsair ram.
@migoffspring yea shouldn’t be any problem, though having 4 gigs of ram will improve performance alot
can i run this mob with Phenom x4 965 ,G.skill Ripjawls 2gb ddr3 1600, MSI hawk hd5770 1gb???

Is it just me or are there cats typing in the background?
The heat sinks are a ripoff off their old P5Q mother board
they look really similar
you still have to consider that intel is using the 32nm and amd is still using 45nm
personally I’m waiting a year or two to upgrade, I’m expecting 18nm by then from both companies.
meh…I like ASUS and have used AMD in my last 3 machines, but this board is…well, meh.
@MrRageaholic ooo now i got it..THX(i feel so stupid rightnow LOL)
How does it support quad crossfire with only 2 slots? Also, what is the chasis intrusion detector thingy?
I agree with Nadrealis, but you should just throw it across the room or something after saying it. Also, bring the “knife” (AKA sword) back!
@AgentHydra but older chipset
I think your cats are more active with keyboards and mice than you are, from what i’ve seen and heard in your videos…
