Asus SABERTOOTH Z97 Mark 2 Motherboard Intel ATX Intel Socket 1150 (Accessory)

Customer Review

JOperation ASUS products for over 10 years (motherboards and video cards) and I was not disappointed.
This card is in ATX format, so quite large. This has the advantage that the components are further apart and connectivity is richer.
The Intel Z97 chipset is brand new, so it has the best performance for SATA and USB 3.0 in addition to support for new Intel processors.
I find that the components are quality. The TUF series is designed to last, also on the box is displayed: 5 years warranty.

The BIOS is graphical, so it can be managed with a mouse. There are plenty of options for overclocking, but also a high degree of management for fans.
Unfortunately most connectors for 4-pin fans, so my old 3-pin fans have only a very limited use (only 1 agreed on one of the two 3-pin connectors, otherwise we lose the fan control function ).

USB side:
4 external USB 2.0 connectors
2 USB 3.0 External connectors
4 integrated USB 2.0 connectors
4 USB 3.0 connectors integrated

This card even comes a paper manual (hey, it's in English, but this is rare today have a manual of about 70 pages included with the product).

BUT I am dissatisfied (so 1 star less) because that ASUS have been stingy and preferred not to include any temperature sensor (3 connectors "thermal sensor" available) or USB brackets for connecting USB ports on the back of the case. Not even USB 2.0, and I dreamed of a bracket combining e-SATA and USB 3.0!

So, I got the old USB 2.0 bracket from my old PC to add 2 USB ports on the back ...

For the temperature sensor I always look. She apparently was included with the cards Sabertooth Mark 1. In fact it is a simple thermistor which is less than 1, but it should be connected and find the right value (old ASUS cards using the value of 10k ohms). The only ASUS reference I found is: SKU: 14004-01400000, but it is not available on the ASUS shop at a price of US $ 7 (they do not send outside the US).
