The motherboard or mainboard is the component that connects all the different parts of your computer. Often it has some integrated components like a sound card, enabling your computer to play sound, or a network card, to connect your computer to the network. The standard form factor (size) for motherboards is ATX, you need at least a midi-tower to fit one of those in. Micro-ATX motherboards are often more complete and have more onboard devices, like a video board and fit in smaller cases, but are generally less expandable.

All great CPUs need a home. Sometimes that home is a hand-me-down motherboard from computers past (assuming the sockets are the same), but sometimes it's a brand-spanking-new board to house your brand-spanking-new CPU. In my case, I'm tossing my recently...
Good Good pricing, Excellent software and BIOS, Good feature set (extra USB and SATA ports), Simple overclocking, Five PWM fan headers!...
Bad 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...
Bottom line So what does all of this sum up to? In short, ASUS has delivered a midrange board for somewhat less than midrange pricing (even before mail-in-rebates). It performs well, overclocks well, is loaded with features and expandability, and doesn't break the ba...

EDITED BY: JamesToday I will be looking at the Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0 utilising AMD's 990FX/SB950 chipset, supporting AMD AM3+ FX™/Phenom™ II/Athlon™ II/Sempron™ 100 Series Processors. The ATX Form-Factor M5A99FX PRO R2.0 sports Asus's new Dual Intelligent...
Bottom line 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...

AMD's flagship FX-series processors squarely target enthusiasts with sub-$1,000 system budgets, and it's hard to get there with an expensive motherboard. We requested every vendor's top-value solution, and received three boards for your consideration. D...
Bottom line 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...

Today we are looking at the AMD side of things, specifically with an AM3+ motherboard from ASUS. The ASUS M5A99FX Pro R2.0 is an ATX socket AM3+ motherboard with lots of bells and whistles. AMD's desktop platforms, above the very low power segment, are se...
Good Lots of expansion options, Very stable platform, Many ASUS extras that differentiate the motherboard...
Bad Not the easiest quadGPU spacing, even though there are lots of PCIe slots...
Bottom line 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...

A motherboard, being the backbone of any desktop system, should be as good as other components you're investing on. Its not limited to VRMs, Power Phase, Passive Cooling- but also cramming all the features in a particular form factor keeping the mainstrea...

A lot of people end up paying a premium and buying hardware with extra features they don't need for fear of inevitable obsolescence, when a more sensible approach is to pick the appropriate components that fit your current needs. Also, some features which...
Good 62 DIGIVRM, Four USB 3.0 Ports via ASM1042 with UASP support, DirectKey BIOS, USB BIOS Flashback, MemOK!, AI Suite II, Onboard power, reset and Clear CMOS buttons, Extra pair of SATA6G ports via ASM1061, CAP Format BIOS, TPM header, Remote GO!, Network iC...
Bad Lack of builtin WiFi...
Bottom line Currently available for $149 at Amazon.com, the ASUS M5A99FX Pro R2.0 makes a very compelling argument for those looking to move on to AMD's 990FX platform, especially for those looking to run a dual SLI or CrossFireX setup. Despite not being PCI-E 3.0...
