Dear Customer,
Thank you for your e-mail.
Regarding your query, our R&D would like to point out that with the ASRock 890GX Extreme3 Motherboard, you will probably not reach the maximum performance of the HyperX SSD. In fact, you will likely achieve between 70 and 80% of the stated performance.
However, our experts also advised that the HyperX SSD is still a good upgrade and a choice in case you want to switch from AMD to Intel.
We trust that the above information will be of assistance to you. However, should you have further queries do not hesitate to contact us.
Kind regards,
now they say i"m gonno get 70-80% performance, witch is still preatty good, and for the price i"m gonna get the ssd i can"t get anything else as fast as a hyperx, so i just wanted to see is there anyone who has hyperx on an 890gx motherboard because i wanna know does it still preform very good, and will overclocking northbridge give me more ssd performance? btw i have a phenom 1055t clocked at 3.5ghz + 8gigs od kingston hyperx memory, i"m upgradeing from a wd black 640gb, i also have a 2tb wd green for storage.
