When will AMD fans get a A+ Motherboard?

[Lexinious]

It would really be nice if we could get a Crosshair Formula V Extreme for AMD! A new "Chipset" would be awesome as well, that way I wouldn't have to run a 3.0 card in a 2.0 Pcie lane! I'm serious, Intel gets the latest of everything and really nice too but AMD'rs just get a few buttons moved around, the sound gets a small upgrade, a -Z gets added and its suppose to be the best thing since sliced bread!

I've been waiting for a "REALLY" nice AMD board for a long time now and I see Intel got yet another Black Edition...lol, sad! Ive got the -Z board and had the V, IV as well! Am I going to have to swallow (and I mean a BIG GULP of) my pride and just buy an "Intel" board to be able to have a "Edition" anything (Motherboard) from Asus? Please for the love of God, PLEASE someone who knows something just give me a tiny hint if ones going to come out in the future 😞 ... I'm dyeing here man...lol!

Thanks...

As soon as kaveri comes out, I think I will be picking up one of these for some low budget overclocking fun!
That is unless ASUS delivers.... Because lets be honest, I would much rather have an Asus board

Despite the hype with AMD, Intel has always outperformed AMD. Sure you pay less for AMD, but you get less too imo. Thats why intel boards are 20/1

I'm glad some people have all of the knowledge about Hardware to not remember that AMD was the leader in CPUs until about 6 years ago and was the first to bring out the 64bit CPU that blew Intel CPU's out of the water. I guess that the Athlon 64 FX CPU is so far Ancient history that the 13yr old's have never heard of them and can state with assuredly that AMD has never been in the forefront or had anything that could be equal with Intel. Then the fact that AMD has been Innovating Technology while being forced to hold back 4 to 6 years at a time because the only way Intel can really beat them is by forcing them into court with injunctions to stop them from selling their new products when they come out.

Sorry folks but between a very bad day and seeing this garbage I just can't hold back. When you make statements like that you had better do some research first. From 1991 to 2005 AMD was the Fastest and Most Powerful CPU's on the Market! plus the most Expensive! Look it up. Where did AMD get the Tech in the first place....Well from 1976 to around 1990 they were Intel Secondary Manufacturer or in other words they were a Arm of Intel!

Here here!

What ever happened to the TUF Sabertooth 990FX R2 Gen3? It was an AM3+ mobo with PCIe 3.0... It never came out even though it was shown at CES 2013... 😞 If a TUF 'board could have PCIe 3.0 for the FX-8350, why can't there be a Crosshair V Extreme with all the bells and whistles???

Amen!
