Yes, the new Gigabyte 890FXA-UD5 gives you all the benefits of the 890FX chipset; but they have given the chipset a taste of Gigabyte's own medicine. The prescription prescribe would be the ability to unlock the extra cores on X3 and X4 Athlon II and Phenom II processors which is no longer present within the chipset but integrated in the motherboard via a hardware mounted IC. Another Gigabyte exclusive is the Ultra Durable 3 Technology which means that two ounces of copper is placed into each PCB better heat dissipation and better stability.
