ASUS 990FX Sabertooth

So far, Intel has wowed the computer industry with its P67 and Z68 chipset boards, designed to go with their newest Sandy Bridge architecture. In addition, 2011 has seen the launch of the Sandy Bridge-E series extreme processors, and 2012 will bring the Ivy Bridge die shrink. Intel's steady march forward had created enormous pressure on AMD to release their long-delayed Bulldozer. Today we're looking at the ASUS 990FX Sabertooth, which is meant to be ASUS' offering to the enthusiast market. The board comes with a plethora of features, all of which we'll cover. The ASUS 990FX Sabertooth uses the AM3+ socket, which fits a large number of AMD processors. AMD has a good history of offering backwards compatibility, making it a favorite of more mainstream users who don't necessarily need the extreme performance offered by Intel CPUs, and also don't want to spend money on a new motherboard every time they upgrade their processor. The 990FX represents the flagship chipset targeting the enthusiasts and hardcore gamers. The 990FX is essentially the same chipset as the 890FX.

Asus Sabertooth 990FX review

The top-of-the-range AMD 990FX chipset in the Asus Sabertooth 990FX motherboard is all about adding support for AMD's formidably titled and mysterious Bulldozer CPUs. Those eight-core, quad-mod Bulldozer chips should at the very least match the Intel i7 2600K pace for pace. Intel's chip is a four core, eight-threaded affair, while the Bulldozer chip will have eight actual cores.All that processing magic will appear on store shelves in Zambezi quad-mod chips before you'll be digging your winter coat out, but for existing AMD CPU customers, the Bulldozer-ready Asus Sabertooth 990FX still has features to offer right now.First, there's a landmark moment for AMD boards and multi-GPU. It's SLI and it's available across a range of the 9-series boards. Gigabyte's GA-990FXA-UD7 will actually support 4-way SLI or CrossFireX setups, while this Sabertooth can hack three-way support. This is quite a big selling point for loyal AMD gamers – these are the first motherboards to support Nvidia's multi-GPU tech, and the very fact it's included suggests Bulldozer has the grunt to match SLI'd GPUs.Sabertooth comes without that TUF thermal armour that gives its P67 iteration that odd look, but still sports the rugged design and heatsinks painted in ubiquitous military tones.
