ASRock X79 Extreme6/GB @ Think Computers
“The X79 Extreme6/GB comes in a pretty plain retail box. On the front is labeling that lets you know the X79 Extreme6/GB board is inside and emblems showing off the various technologies and features of the board. Flipping the box over there is a complete overview of the board and it goes into detail on some of the main features.”
Gigabyte Z77MX D3H TH @ Guru3D
“Z77 is of course the Intel chipset predominantly released for Ivy Bridge based processors. These motherboards will have a slightly altered feature set and thus support the new Ivy Bridge apples from Intel. Good to know however is that Z77 also supports Sandy Bridge Socket 1155 based processors.”
ASUS Maximus V Formula @ Bjorn3D
“ASUS hit the market hard with the little board that packed a big punch. Now they’ve released the bigger brother of that board: the Maximus V Formula, and the Maximus V Extreme is following shortly. Let’s check out the Maximus V Formula and see what it has to offer.”
MSI FM2-A85XA-GD65 @ Hardware Secrets
“The MSI FM2-A85XA-GD65, also known as MS-7793, is a motherboard based on the most high-end chipset for the new FM2 platform, the A85X (codenamed “Hudson D4”), and is targeted to the second-generation APUs from AMD, codename “Trinity.” Let’s see what this motherboard has to offer.”
MSI Z77 MPOWER @ Pure OC
“Last June, we reviewed MSI’s Z77-GD65 and Z77-GD55. Both motherboards shined in performance, overclocking and value, showing they can hang with the big boys. Both motherboards overclocked as well as, if not better, than any of the higher-end boards. Today, we have another MSI Z77 offering in the lab named the Z77 MPower.”
ASRock Z77 OC Formula @ X-Bit Labs
“ASRock Z77 OC Formula mainboard comes in a very large box. The front of the box doesn’t bear too much information. There you will find just the mainboard model name, its image in the form of a race car and a few logotypes.”
ASRock FM2A85X Extreme6 @ Hardware Secrets
“The ASRock FM2A85X Extreme6 is a motherboard based on the most high-end chipset for the new FM2 platform, the A85X (codenamed “Hudson D4”), and is targeted to the second-generation APUs from AMD, codename “Trinity.” Let’s see what this motherboard has to offer.”
Gigabyte GA-A75-D3H FM1 @ Legit Reviews
“I’m still a fan of the AMD FM1 APU platform, and with the recent launch of the second generation APU ‘Trinity’ the FM1 platform is a very strong budget play. We could easily pair the GIGABYTE A75-D3H with the AMD A8-3870K APU and 8Gb of Corsair Vengeance memory for under $250 shipped to our door.”
ASRock Z77 OC Formula @ TechPowerUp
“Like a high-priced premium sports car, the ASRock Z77 OC Formula races to the finish line, equipped with XFast speed. Bred with nothing other in mind than breaking clock limits while retaining full stability, ASRock has enrolled Nick Shih, to help them design one of the best overclocking-centric products.”
ASUS F2A55-M @ eTeknix
“Next in our stack is the Asus F2A55-M which comes equipped (as the name suggests) with the AMD A55 chipset that we saw originally on the FM1 Llano based boards around a year or so ago, but AMD have deemed it to still suit the market in the current climate by offering a no frills option for a good price.”
