eXentios Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 I had that same issue a few years for my FX-8120, I compared the Asus M5A99X Evo, M5A99FX PRO and Sabertooth 990FX, read a few reviews, and as a conclusion bought the M5A99X Evo because the amount of money spent for instance in a Sabertooth don't get justified by the gain in specs/performance.
