ASRock Fatal1ty 990FX Professional @ Vortez
“The ASRock 990FX Professional marks the pinnacle in ASRock’s AMD lineup and is designed squarely for gamers and overclockers. Designed as part of the ‘Fatal1ty’ range of products with Jonathan ‘Fatal1ty’ Wendel, this board aims to provide not only top end performance, but a whole range of useful features.”
ASRock Z68 Professional Fatal1ty Gen.3 @ PureOC
“ASRock has released their second Sandybridge Fatal1ty motherboard called the Fatal1ty Z68 Professional Gen3 aimed at both the enthusiast and hardcore gamers. As of late, ASRock has been jousting with the big boys and is known for producing a wide range of quality motherboards to suit just about any preference, need, or budget, and it will be interesting to see how the Fatal1ty shakes out.”
MSI Z68A-GD65G3 @ TechwareLabs
“Over the years I have come to expect certain shortcomings when a product comes to the market with “WORLD’S FIRST” featured on their box. MSI released the Z68A-GD65G3 with two “World’s first” features. While very excited to see what the PCI Express 3.0 and Click II bios had to offer.”
Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD4-B3 @ PCStats
“This is a review of the Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD4-B3 motherboard which is equipped with a (new) ‘B3’-stepping Intel P67 chipset. The Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD4-B3 motherboard replaces the original Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD4 model that was recalled due to the Intel 6-series chipset issue.”
ECS HDC-I @ Hardware Secrets
“We concluded that the ECS HDC-I motherboard is a great choice for multimedia and entertainment PCs, as well as for Home Theater PCs (HTPCs). It brings a powerful (of course, considering its cost and power consumption) CPU for general web surfing, multimedia watching and entertainment purposes.”
ASRock Z68 Fatal1ty Gen3 @ Hardware Heaven
“Today we have one of these forward looking Intel boards on our test bench, the Fatality Z68 Professional Gen 3 which is a board which works with today’s PCIe 2.0 based hardware but also includes all the components required to support future 1155 CPUs and PCIe 3.0.”
ASUS F1A75-V Pro @ OCAholic
“At a first glance ASUS leaves a good impression with its F1A75-V Pro. Especially the digital power design as well as the space between the PCI-Express x16 slots are major plus points. Furthermore we very much like the color design and to us it’s very appealing.”
MSI 870A Fuzion Power Edition @ Vortez
“Unlike the Crosshair IV Extreme the Fuzion is relatively affordable too – certainly a viable core component for a very high end gaming system. I can imagine many users prepared to stick by their AMD quad and hex cores choosing a board like this to eek out that extra perfromance.”
ASUS P8P67 @ FutureLooks
“The P8P67 ability to overclock is quite impressive. It makes very efficient use of the CPU offset voltages quickly pushing the 4.8GHz barrier and nearly matching its bigger EVO sibling. Granted, it might take a little more from supported component voltages, but it’s a further testament to ASUS’ DIY user continuity initiative.”
ASUS Rampage III Black Edition @ HardOCP
“Overclocking the ASUS Rampage III Black Edition was actually very easy despite the fact I’ve become spoiled by P67 and Z68 boards as of late. Of course I went ahead and disabled the CPU and PCIe spread spectrum settings and then disabled all the unnecessary CPU features such as C1E support, Execute Disable, turbo mode, C-States, and Speedstep.”
