Up for review today is the M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 'Xtreme Design' motherboard from ASUS.

It's a brand new unit so we're very privileged to have it here on test!

Asus are an incredibly well known and highly regarded company and are one of the major manufacturers in everything from motherboards and soundcards all the way to laptops and GPU's.




ASUS, a technology-oriented company blessed with one of the world's top R& teams, is well known for high-quality and innovative technology. As a leading provider of 3C (computers, communications and consumer electronics) total solutions, ASUS offers a complete product portfolio to compete in the new millennium.

To succeed in this ultra-competitive industry, great products need to be complimented by speed-to-market, cost and service. That's why all 100,000 over employees of ASUS strive for the "ASUS Way of Total Quality Management" to offer the best quality without compromising cost and time-to-market while providing maximum value to all customers through world-class services.



Most focus these days seems to be on i5 and i7 based hardware. However, AMD have been working hard on this new chipset to compliment their new Athlon II and Phenom II processors so i'm eager to take a look and see how this board compares to the competition.
