asus has 2 model for amd 890fx.crosshair formula cost more the other one has 180$.i think that sound card and 4 pcie 2.0 solt in crosshair fomula make it expensive and in overclocking they has same result.is this true?

The Crosshair has an additional PCI-e x16 slot is the main difference. If you are doing a new build though, you'd probably be quite happy with a 890GX board instead.

It also has USB 3.0 support.

It actually has 3 models: Crosshair IV Formula,M4A89TD PRO,M4A89TD PRO/USB 3
And the difference is that Crosshair has better cooling and some extra features such has a sound card....

Hi.

See the comparative of the three models here.

The Crosshair IV have more features, a better power managed, better OC capabilities and unique features that rise the price of that mobo. Different network chipset and a better sound card. Don't support IDE drives and finally is a ROG series.
