Asus SABERTOOTH 990FX Socket AM3+/ AMD 990FX/ DDR3/ Quad-CrossFireX & Quad SLI/ SATA3&USB3.0/ A&GbE/ ATX Motherboard is the newest addition to the TUF Series motherboards is the SABERTOOTH 990FX based on the latest AMD’s top 990FX/SB950 chipsets. Known for their unrivaled quality and reliability in extreme conditions, the SABERTOOTH 990FX features the use of CeraM!X, an exclusive aerospace-grade cooling material that is extremely effective in conducting heat away from vital system components. Also onboard is ASUS’ Thermal Radar technology that consists of ten sensors located on vital motherboard components, which provides users the ability to actively monitor each one individually and automatically adjust fan speeds to ensure a high level of system stability without overheating. Besides six native SATA 6Gb/s ports and total four USB 3.0 ports, the SABERTOOTH 990FX also brings multi-GPU configurations through both SLI and CrossFireX to bring a brand new gaming style like you’ve never experienced before.
* Please Note: This is an OEM motherboard and it does not come with rear I/O shield also known as back-plate cover; this part is not needed and you can still install the board in standard ATX case.
