ASUS M5A99X EVO Motherboard

When we reviewed the ASUS Sabertooth 990FX motherboard several weeks ago, the planned launch date for AMD's new AM3+ compatible Bulldozer chips was September 19th. Surprisingly that day came and went with little explanation as to when exactly we might finally see the product hit store shelves. We didn't have too long to wait however, on October 12th the chips began popping into online inventories everywhere. Unfortunately not many likely made it into checkout carts, as a slew of reviews published that same day gave the FX series Zambezi chips scathing remarks. AnandTech's review of the current top offering FX-8150 gave it a fair shakedown, and concluded that, "If you have an existing high-end Phenom II system, particularly an X4 970 or above or an X6 of any sort, I honestly don't see much of a reason to upgrade."
