    <p>You know.. What i am going to tell you will not sound good. My
      board was Sabertooth 990-fx R2. My little story is that at first
      it seemed to run ok (with r9 270X card). I sinked enough hours to
      titanfall and it was great. After good period of time of non-usage
      (as board was in warranty service and eventually swapped to brand
      new board), multiple kernel updates and migration to archlinux i
      no longer could get it running as fast. Now i do not know if i
      just did not feel slowness initially and it was always there or if
      something changed, but i know for a fact that testing older kernel
      releases did yield a little bit better performance (enough that i
      could notice). So i moved back to dual-booting due to performance
      reasons. In the end combination of this and r9 270X constantly
      causing entire PC to go down with a red screen i simply swapped
      hardware for intel x99 + nvidia gpu. Such is sad story of mine..<br>
