ASUS Crosshair Republic of Gamers Socket AM2 Motherboard Review

September 22nd 2006 | nForce 500

Designed to be the ultimate gamer’s motherboard for the AM2 platform, the ASUS Crossfire (NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI) motherboard is part of the Taiwan company’s “Republic of Gamers” series targetting hardcore gamers and overclockers. This board is "like an amusement park" says TweakTown:

The ASUS Crosshair motherboard is extremely powerful and stacked with impressive features for the gamer and overclocker and some which we’ve never seen before but that power comes at a price. While it is a faster board than the new DFI NF590, it also has a higher price tag than the DFI board. If you want the extra features and can afford this board it is a better option but if you want something that is more on your budget level, ASUS is too far up there, DFI will be better for you with a cheaper price tag.

Overall we were suitably impressed with the ASUS Crosshair motherboard performance and its impressive and unique features but its price tag needs a pole volt to get over. If you have a big enough pole volt, we are quite sure you will also be suitably impressed with ASUS’ first “Republic of Gamers” motherboard.
