When trying to think of a name for our look at Asus’s new Z87 mainstream motherboard options I went through countless bad jokes and Bond Goldmember comments. I came to the conclusion that much like Asus I would let the boards speak for themselves. Today we are going to take a look at the Asus Z87 Pro and Z87 Plus, both what they call Channel boards. In other words this is Asus’s standard lineup. In the past I have been extremely impressed with what Asus had to offer in their standard lineup; hopefully they can keep that up. Let’s see what they have to offer.
After what feels like months of prepping, testing, photography, videos, and writing are finally reaching the end of our Haswell launch motherboard coverage and I think we may have saved the best for last. We haven’t covered one of Asus’s TUF Series of motherboards official although we do have one in our cooling test bench and we have seen countless boards in our reader’s rigs. So to finish things off we are going to take a look at Asus's new Micro ATX TUF Series Z87 Gryphon. Its smaller form factor is a first for the TUF line and I am very excited to see what the fuss has been about.
The ASRock Z87 Extreme4 is a mid-range socket LGA1150 motherboard targeted for the "Haswell" processors (fourth-generation Core i3, Core i5, and Core i7 processors). Let's see what this motherboard has to offer.
Over the last month or so we have covered Intel's latest generation of CPUs in a number of ways from the initial CPU article, through system reviews and motherboard comparisons. In that last category we looked at MSI's Z77-G45 Gaming board and it scored well against a slightly cheaper offering from another manufacturer. Having seen that MSI felt they could compete really well with their G43 board so today we have that very product on our test bench to see how it compares.
The ASRock FM2A85X-ITX is a very nice ITX motherboard that can serve as a solid basis for an HTPC or even a home server thanks to the presence of eight SATA ports. The specifications and performance of the board are all in order, and only the idle power usage could be a little lower. Nevertheless, the FM2A85X-ITX remains an excellent motherboard.
The G1.Sniper 5 Z87 motherboard from Gigabyte is packed with all bells and whistles and offers stuff like Killer E2200 NIC, a solid 16-phase VRM, Sound Blaster Core3D audio with interference PCB isolation and replaceable OP AMPs, a 2-in-1 heatsink on the VRM which also acts as a water block, 4-way CrossFireX/SLI support and many more.
In questo articolo analizziamo la prima motherboard giunta in laboratorio dotata del nuovo socket LGA 1150, compatibile quindi con i nuovi processori della serie Haswell. Si tratta della GA-Z87X-UD3H, dedicata alle nuove CPU Core i7 di quarta generazione e caratterizzata dalla tecnologia Ultra Durable 5 Plus. La tecnologia Ultra Durable 5 era stata introdotta con la precedente generazione di schede madri Z77X-UP, di cui avevamo analizzato il modello UP4. A parte la componentistica simile, ci sono ovviamente importanti novità in questa scheda madre, che scopriremo insieme in questa recensione.
How does a company make a multiple award-winning, enthusiast-grade motherboard even more ‘extreme’? By making it into a black edition version, of course. Asus has updated its critically-acclaimed Rampage IV Extreme X79 motherboard to ‘Black Edition’ status. Have the upgraded components and IVB-E tweaks resulted in yet another rampaging master class?
Gamers are increasingly realising that you don't need a Full ATX motherboard to build a powerful gaming PC. The Z87M Gaming has all the features a gamer could want and you can even use two graphics cards in SLI or Crossfire. The MSI Z87M Gaming costs around £120 / €161 and competes against boards such as the Gigabyte G1.Sniper M5 and ASUS Maximus VI Gene.
