The GA-890GPA-UD3H is aimed at the upper end of the mainstream consumer and business market with options for six SATA 3.0 drives, two USB 3.0 ports and support for up to 140 Watts CPUs. For the more mainstream consumers (and more than a few business users) the HD 4290 integrated graphics will be more than enough to keep things going smoothly. For those of you looking for a little more, the Crossfire support and two x16 mechanical PCIe 2.0 slots will be sure to keep you happy.

The latest chipset from Intel, the Z77, has been around for a little while now and has certainly spurred a lot of interest by aftermarket motherboard manufacturers. Little actually changed between the Z68 chipset and the Z77 chipset. Z77 added Smart connect to let you receive emails while your computer is asleep and Rapid Start to speed up boot times. With so little changing, it is up to the manufacturers to pack their motherboards so full of features that they stand out above the rest of the competition. That is exactly what Biostar has done with the Hi-Fi Z77X.

With a huge stack of Z77 boardsin our labs, the Z77A-GD65 from MSI is next on our testbench.

We have had more than a few ASRock board in the lab. We have even had the folks from ASRock stop by to talk to us about their products. So it comes as no surprise that ASRock has been one of the ones to send out their IGP carrying AM3 boards that are claiming full support for the Phenom II X6. As we have found out, though, not all boards that support the X6 can do so with style.

So you need more CPU power than what a single Intel Core i7 Extreme Edition processor can provide? Look no further than the EVGA Classified SR-2 motherboard. Anyone who has been following along the enthusiast motherboard industry knows exactly what this motherboard is all about. We take it for a spin with two high end Hexa-core Xeon processors and look what kind of performance you can expect if you can afford a platform like this!

Although not usually covered by the enthusiast media, ASUS has a great line up of Workstation boards that have just as many features (including overclocking) as their non-professional line up. We have taken a look at one of these before; the P7P55 WS SuperComputer and it was a fast board.

Ein äußerst umfangreicher Usertest ist in unserem Forum für das ASRock Z68 Pro3 Sandy-Bridge-Mainboard entstanden. Die Platine bildet einen sehr preisgünstigen Einstieg in die Welt der Z68-Mainboards, erledigt ihre Aufgabe allerdings trotzdem überzeugend. Interessant sind die Ausführungen zu Lucids Virtu-Technologie (die den allermeisten Z68-Boards beigelegt wird), mittels welcher je nach Aufgabe on-the-fly zwischen integrierter Intel-Grafiklösung und extra Grafikkarte umgeschaltet werden kann.

ASUS has been cranking out the motherboards lately, or actually, I suppose I should say they are continuing to crank out the motherboards. In particular, they have been pushing out more than a few of their Republic of Gamers boards. These are ASUS' flagship line and usually contain not only top notch features, but are also capable of top notch performance.

EVGA are very successful in the GPU sector of the market, but have they been able to put their top level of performance into an X79 powered board?

Nachdem das Gigabyte GA-F2A85X-UP4 den Anfang gemacht hat, soll unsere FM2-Testreihe mit zwei weiteren Boards aus dem Hause ASRock fortgesetzt werden. Die erste der beiden Platinen ist das ASRock FM2A85X Extreme4-M. Die Platine ist im mATX Formfaktor gefertigt, was sie vor allem für PC-Systeme mit kleinerem Formfaktor interessant macht. Im Vergleich zu vielen Full ATX Platinen mit dem AMD Sockel FM2 hält sich das Board hinsichtlich der Ausstattung jedoch etwas zurück.
