ASUS M4N72-E @ Motherboards.org
“The ASUS M4N72-E motherboard has its strong and weak points. The strong points include SLI support, support for AM3 CPUs out of the box as it’s a new design and a solid bundle. Performance was lower than other chipsets but that is due to the fact that the nForce 750a is not the top of the line NVIDIA chipset for the AMD market, the 780a is the chipset for that catago
MSI 790FX GD70 @ Au-Ja!
“The next stop for our AM3 CPUs is the MSI 790FX GD70. This mainboard combines DDR3 with AMD’s 790FX chipset. You have an onboard dial to increase or decrease the clock rate, one of the USB ports can be used to connect eSATA devices as well and there is one big cooler mounted on top of the northbridge and MOSFETs.”
MSI 790GX-G65 @ Motherboards.org
“AMD’s launch of the AM3 platform is an interesting one from many angles. For the new computer owner the move to DDR3 memory is pretty clear as fewer and fewer motherboards with DDR2 memory support are hitting the market today compared to a year or two ago. DDR3 memory on the AMD platform requires AM3 CPUs.”
Gigabyte EP45-UD3L @ Hardware Secrets
“Let’s have a look on EP45-UD3L, Gigabyte’s Socket 775 motherboard for Intel processors, aimed mainly for Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Quad processors. Like EP45C-DS3R, this motherboard is based on Intel P45 chipset, which replaced P35. Both chipsets are for the mainstream market.”
ECS A790GXM @ Guru3D
“We will review the A790GXM-AD3 motherboard from the folks at ECS Elitegroup. This article will entail two primary focuses. The first being a review on this motherboard, the second… to observe if we actually see a performance increase from DDR2 over DDR3 memory.”
Jetway X-BLUE P45 @ PCShopTalk
“In this review I will test the X-BLUE-P45 motherboard from Jetway, which is one of their low-cost motherboards with this chipset and see how it performs compared to the MSI Memory Lover motherboard, reviewed recently.”
ASUS P5Q3 @ Benchmark Reviews
“Launched last summer by Intel, the P45 chipset has quickly grown in popularity, replacing the aging P35 chipset. Intended for a mid to upper mainstream consumer base, the P45 chipset boasts some impressive features, such as: full DDR2/DDR3 support, 20 PCI Express 2.0 lanes, ATI Crossfire support, and a 65nm manufacturing process.”
ASRock X58 SuperComputer @ TweakTown
“ASRock has been known to us here at TweakTown as producing a more rounded board aimed at the mainstream and value end of the spectrum. Never would we consider putting this motherboard maker into the hardcore and overclocking segments that ASUS, MSI and GIGABYTE has managed to push into, yet ASRock for all their trying are aiming for the top. And why not!”
ASUS P6T @ Think Computer
“Today I will be looking at the P6T, Asus’ basic mainstream X58 motherboard. As with other Asus Intel motherboard series, the P6T falls just under the Deluxe model, and is a full-featured but more affordable board. The P6T supports 3-way SLI and 3-way CrossFireX, triple-channel memory, and all of the other goodies provided by the X58 chipset. Read on to find out about the Asus P6T!”
Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 @ PC Per
“Gigabyte harnessed a lot of different technologies when they built the GA-X58-UD5. While the board didn’t wow us against other comparable X58 boards on the market, it did show us flashes of brilliance that should entice its fair share of consumers. The Gigabyte brand itself is really pinning itself against ASUS for the top spot in the motherboard industry.”
