In my opinion I will say that the ASUS M4A89 GTD PRO at 10,300 is a better choice. The reason for this is that it has hybrid crossfire support while MSI 890FXA GD70 has presently crossfire. Which means you be able to make use of your HD5870 in crossfire by means of the HD4290 IGP as well as the case of MSI you cannot do that.Both of these boards have similar offerings similar to SATA6GB/s as well as USB 3.0 however the ASUS mobo has an Overclocking switch intended for instant safe over clocking.As well it is 600 bucks cheaper than MSI. However for what purpose you are planning to make use of this.

If you desire on the way to play each and every games in the coming 3 years, better obtain a HD 6870 or else HD 5870. HD 6850 is a mid choice card intended on the way to race in opposition to GTX 460 768 MB. It is superior performer as compare to GTX 460, 768 MB while HD 6870 is superior than HD 5850.As well as concerning your inquiry, I didn't obtain the accurate question, are you asking why Hybrid crossfire is not probable by means of HD 5850 or else why the ASUS mobo is superior.
