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.”
EVGA nForce 790i SLI FTW @ Digit-Life
“Today we are going to test the EVGA nForce 790i SLI FTW Digital PWM motherboard the only new feature of which is a digital PWM. Still, FTW models have an important feature: they are officially based on the NVIDIA nForce 790i SLI chipset, not its Ultra version. With the insignificant difference in practical features, it means much lower costs for the chipset and the motherboard.”
ZOTAC GeForce 9300-ITX WiFi @ TweakTown
“Today we have been given an Intel Core 2 series supporting ITX model on steroids in the form of the 9300-ITX WiFi. Costing a mere $145 USD from Newegg it’s priced right, but will it perform? – Let’s have a look. Today we have the new 9300-ITX WiFi board up against our 610i and 630i based boards from ZOTAC; this just to see if this new board is able to outperform the previous generation boards.”
Gigabyte EX58 Extreme @ Hardware Secrets
“Gigabyte EX58 Extreme is probably one of the most complete socket 1366 motherboards based on Intel X58 chipset (with the ICH10R south bridge chip) for Core I7 processors available on the market today, with features not found on most competitors, such as three PCI Express x16 slots with support for SLI and CrossFireX modes, 16-phase voltage regulator circuit, liquid cooling waterblock on the chipset…”
Sapphire PURE CrossFireX 790GX @ TweakTown
“AMD has been on the back-end with its current architecture processors since Intel brought us Core 2. For over four years now AMD has had to play catch up and it seems that every good thing has to come to an end. But while AMD has lost the performance crown to Intel, the Phenom II based processors are extremely cost effective, as are their supporting boards.”
ASRock X48TurboTwins-WiFi @ PCShopTalk
“The X48TurboTwins-WiFi is the X48 motherboard from ASROCK which offers integrated WiFi connectivity from a module that comes with it, support for DDR2,DDR3,Crossfire and very good performance coming from the X48 high-end chipset.”
