@ieNzYm You can not run SLI on an AMD chipset. It ill support crossfire only as far as I know. If you want to run SLI, I suggest you get an nForce board, they should be fine for it. Otherwise get ATI cards and run CFX.
is this motherboard very big if it is could u please recommend me a case and i want to do sli on one monitor 2xNVIDIA GeForce GTS 450 1GB 16X PCI Express will this be ok?

@hosrom no, the formula remains the same, the extreme tho runs the hudra chip wich isnt sli or crossfire, its their ow thing, and running a physx card with a ati card is not running any kind of crossfire or sli, now stfu son.
@Xyllianos The new ASUS Crosshair IV Formula allows both SLI and Crossfire TOGETHER.
And for you’re info, my Gigabyte board is “only crossfire” capable, but i have a NVIDIA 8800 GT as a physx card and running 5770 cross fire fine no issues.

@NOXXism if ur running sli intel is the only way to go, the hydra chips are awful and so are the old nForce chipsets, radeon 6000 series is just around the corner tho and maybe you wont need sli anyways. wait a moth and see.
@Xyllianos i was looking to another am3 sli board. I love my crosshair ii formula but i wanted to upgrade so this one can go to my brother’s rig… Now i don’t know which board to get…

Peace of Shit. Ohbama is the all time gamer fame of it all the republic he stands, Levie jeans are better than Jordache so if both not the republic use wallmart and get a nicer mainboard at TigerDirect and say no new Taxes. Peace Broth.

@saik0pod Not sure? Pproduction, many do, some don’t. They say the heatsink issue is not big deal. For the price you paid for it let me know if you really satisfied with things you like, things you don’t and if that price was worth. This is a Brand Name, proclaimed republic of gamers. Do they include you and is your efforts said to be of importance or a member of there repbulic. In general, republic includes all public. Do they support your ideas? Any industry can be.

@XGViper2gamer Try to even the length of the heat sink screws. I’ve seen it on another video about this board made by WestCoastMods. It’s kinda late, but hope it works.

13 people don’t like it ? Ok… go buy expansive Intel processors and get only 4 cores, and us, with AMD we’ll be glad to buy the next Bulldozer CPU which will certainly be sold for less than 250€, something like 8 cores, and you’ll buy your Intel CPU 8 cores for 600€…

Even though this is an 890FX chipset, im low on cash, so i was wondering will it support an Nvidia 9600GT? My current system is Nvidia, if i buy this motherboard i will have to buy new ram and GPU, but i cant afford a new GPU…
Hey ppl i was looking on asus page and noticed that on the most of the ram types it says (OC) DDR3 2000(O.C.)/1800(O.C.)/1600(O.C.)/1333/1066 and was wondering why ? does it mean that i would have to overlock the board before i can use pc3-1600 or what D: ?

@Xyllianos Excuse me sir, but do NOT tell me to STFU and i am not you’re “son”.
I made a mistake with the models, i was referring to the extreme edition which has the lucid chip.
Ok?

@NOXXism Furmula does not run the lucid hudra, and im glad, look at some tests of the MSI hydra board, it is truly awful.
