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.

In letzter Zeit sorgte DFI mit seinen High-End Lösungen für Wirbel im µATX Segment. Die Hauptplatinen boten einen einzigartigen Umfang an Ausstattung und Übertaktungsmöglichkeiten. Solch ein Treiben ruft natürlich die Konkurrenz auf den Plan und so stellt ASUS mit dem "Rampage II Gene" sein erstes High-End µATX Mainboard vor und hat sich einiges vorgenommen.

ASUS has some tough shoes to fill. Fortunately, they're familiar shoes; their own, in fact. A long string of high performance motherboards that got adopted simultaneously by the enthusiast and gaming sets, led ASUS to create a specialty brand segment they call "Republic of Gamers". The ROG Creed goes like this: "The Republic of Gamers is committed to delivering the most innovative and best performing PC solutions to enhance the gaming experience of power users." That's a tall order, especially in the competitive PC component market where today's news is already old news. One of the newest members of this Republic is the Maximus II GENE, part of a new group of small form factor components that give nothing away in performance to their larger brethren. Benchmark Reviews is pleased to review this latest offering, based on the Intel P45 and ICH10R, and we put it through the wringer against a well known full ATX-size reference boa! rd.

In the first Preview on eTeknix we are proud to introduce the first LGA-1156 motherboard in the UK, the Asus P7P55D Evo, which is designed to use the new Lynnfield processors that Intel will hopefully be releasing in a few months time. The first of these should be Core i5 750 clocked at 2.66 GHz and confusingly we should also see i7 1156 socket processors in early 2010 with the 860 and 870 clocked at 2.8 GHz and 2.93 GHz respectively. It's worth mentioning before we get started that this preview is based on a pre-production motherboard, so some of the specifications may be altered before it goes in to mass production ready for a September release to coincide with Intel’s i5 launch.

Motherboards with inexpensive discrete chipsets remain popular, but rarely make it to reviews because of poor functionality. But sometimes such motherboards get proprietary technologies, in which case it would be strange not to review them. Today we shall examine one of such motherboards based on the AMD 770 chipset.

For computer enthusiasts, the last Intel milestone was the Core i7 processor launch that paralleled the X58-Express motherboard chipset launch back in November of 2008. Ten months later and well into September of 2009, Intel has returned with the P55-Express chipset for mainstream users who pair it with the new LGA1356 socket. On the outside little more than the processor socket and memory configuration has changed, replacing dual-channel for triple. PCI-Express now offers only one 16x lane instead of two, while the number of SATA and USB ports continues to give more expansion room than the average user might need. The consumer might not know what to expect when choosing between the two products, other than one is mainstream (P55) and the other is for extreme enthusiasts (X5. In this article, Benchmark Reviews directly compares the Intel Core i7-860 equipped Gigabyte GA-P55-UD6 motherboard against the GA-EX58-UD4P with Intel Core i7-920. Testi! ng a Core i7-860 against an i7-920 might not seem fair, and it's a little biased to compare P55 against X58, but the final outcome might just surprise you.

Let's take a look on one of the most overclocking-oriented socket 1156 motherboards from the market, MSI P55-GD80.

For one of the cheapest boards on the new chipset, this one looks very decent. If you don't need 6 expansion slots and fully-fledged SLI/CrossFire, then ASRock P55M Pro is a nice choice for an inexpensive machine based on a Core i5 CPU (or future Socket 1156 processors).

The Core i5 processor and P55 Express chipset are Intel's flagship parts for the mainstream market. Today, Legit Reviews takes a look at the Intel Extreme Series DP55KG 'Kingsberg' and DP55WG 'Warrensburg' motherboard to see how these two board perform. Both offer the same level of performance at default clock speeds, but what about features and overclocking performance?

Nach dem GA-EX58-UD4P wollen wir euch ein weiteres Board von dem beliebten Hersteller Gigabyte vorstellen, das GA-X58A-UD7. Dies ist das erste X58 Board von Gigabyte mit USB 3 und ähnelt optisch und von der Ausstattung sehr dem EX58A-Extreme. Geeignet ist das Board für Overclocker und Enthusiasten…
