While I wasn't expecting this particular motherboard to offer a plethora of overclocking options, as it simply isn't aimed towards that market, what I would expect is at least the ability to tune and alter memory timings, and in this discipline the A58XK9-ALF is more than lacking. If this is fixed in future BIOS revisions or final retail boards, then we could be left with something far more worthwhile on our hands. As it stands, the A58XK9-ALF is great for out-of-the-box performance, but a major disappointment for anyone looking to tweak a little extra speed out of their rig.
