9.5/10
I4U Rating

Pros

  • Tons of features
  • Fantastic performance
  • DDR3 support
  • ESA capability

Cons

  • Price
  • Lacking internal USB headers
  • Some large CPU coolers may not work

Verdict
If you are an NVIDIA fan and plan on running an Intel LGA775 processor the XFX 790i Ultra is hands down the board to build your enthusiast system on. If DDR3 support isn’t a requirement you can save some loot and step down to the 790i, but for the extreme enthusiast the XFX 790i Ultra is what you want in your gaming rig.
