Trying to build a PC with this mobo. Can any of you please go to http://amzn.com/w/YZH8TA16YW8N and let me know of any bottlenecks or issues?

I wont go to your link but I will tell you there is NO bottle necks... You needs to look at the processor architecture and the PCIE speed. But trust me, there is no bottle necks with this board... that you could afford....

Although I got this motherboard a while ago, I still haven't finished assembly (the instructions are hard to follow). The motherboard can hold 4 RAM cards and one gpu and seems fairly organized. I have no idea about it's gaming capabilities but that is why I got it so I may be able to tell you soon!

You have made a wise choice for your CPU and GPU. However, your mobo choice is a bit of an over-kill. I tell folks to match your hardware for it's primary use. This matchup strikes me more of a gaming system than photo/video rendering...even 4K video. If you want a gaming system, that's another issue. Also consider another mobo; your choice will run you about $480, consider the ASUS X79-DELUXE ATX DDR3 1333 LGA 2011. Both will support DDR3 2800, for about $100 less. Keep in mind, most of the cost of a mobo is features (bells and whistles). If you think you'll use them, by all means go for the gusto. If you are well versed with BIOS setups & over-clocking, regardless of what you get you will be fine. If not, you may want to try a less challenging setup. Keep in mind that most people find they have no use for most of the features on a mobo and hence waste their money. Asus for the most part makes a solid product regardless of the mobo you get. Have fun...

I agree with Caleb E. pcpartpicker will help you a ton when building a system. It shows no problems at all... and by the way.. I love this motherboard...

I used this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231589 I didn't actually have much luck with this board (I'm assuming that's because it was open box though.) Are you manually clocking or RAM or just using the X.M.P.? My board was fine using the X.M.P. settings.

Can't find your MoBo, but it runs a 24 pin connector, just make sure your MoBo runs on that and you're good, it runs voltage and frequency runs just about everything as well, don't see a problem

Do you have a pci express x16 2.0, 2.1, or 3.0 and a powersuply of more then 400w with either a 6 pin connector or 2 molex connectors? If so, then yes. ------------------ Under further reaserch of the bored you(hopfully) don't yet have I have to say is EXTREAM OVER KILL. that board runs 200 ish here on amazon and you only need all the stuff it has if your trying to run a server while edditing videos/ rendering them. this is a mid-range card an the motherboard you speak of is the low of the high. sooo you would be better of with the gigabyte 270x or up or a duel set up with this card. If you don't know about what I speak (since you don't appear to know much about compatibility ) I would suggest a cheaper first rig, and also something newer. getting a good bored is important but aim for a newer one. reaserch research a d research. and more research. YouTube helps a lot. I hope this impute was helpful, good luck with the build!

I'm using a third generation cpu, but you shouldn't have any compatibility issues with the cpu, if anything you might have an issue with you're mobo. Make sure it's compatible with 2400 ram

Everything in my other comment stands, but I just noticed the huge money you're putting into the card. Do a lot of research before buying. Talk to a lot of gamers. I guess you already have a build using this mobo, and are upping the video card. I would think all should work well, especially if you have not had the flaky stuff that's happened with mine. Make sure you have a strong power supply.

I'm not familiar with those mobo's. If they have a PCI-E slot on them, then I don't see why it wouldn't work.

No not really, but the MOBO works great with my 8 gigs of Corsair Vengence ram at 1866. It also depends on the performance you are trying to reach

my opinion, dont get this board. i had issues with it having bad DIMMs, the dual channel didnt work and kept crashing to blue sceen. just do a quick google of this board and ram issues and you will see what i had to go through. save yourself some grief and go for another board.

It is a value motherboard rather than a performance mobo. If you have a tight budget and want a fully AMD solution than, sure, it is "good for gamin". The AM3+ designation gives you processor choices, it has USB 3.0, plenty of SATA III ports, has SATA II ports if needed, even has an IDE port, has gigabyte lan, is easy to work with and somewhat elegant in its simplicity. So it is "white bread" but will meet the average gamer's needs.

Should be fine with your CPU - be careful with overclocking though, if you intend to do that. Otherwise, it's a fine motherboard and hasn't given me any issues.

No, and I would not recommend this Mobo to anyone! Asus also just so happens to have some of the worst customer support. Give it a try call them tell them you just bought something of theirs that is defective and its to late to return it to the store. They will want you to pay for the S&H; to and from them even if they make mistakes.

Sorry for the delay. The e-mail initiating this conversation when to my non-main e-mail. Nope. This is an FM2 socket, which is incompatible with AM3+ chips (read: anything Phenom). You'd need to specifically buy an AMD APU (Specifically the AMD A#-5#### or A#-6#### series processor).Hope that makes sense.

Well! M5A87 is pretty good board & its supports all AM3+ family processors, Also if you would like to consider new yet affordable '8-core processors' like AMD FX 8-Core Black Edition 125W version (not 200W version as your motherboard has limitation upto 140W only). One more suggestion I personally prefer high frequency DDR RAM modules such as 1600 or 1866 all varies just for just 10-20 bucks compared to standard ones like 1333/1066, this will noticeably improve the application response esp for like cads/games etc who requires low latency access.
