The launch is a little ways off, but today William gives us a quick look at the upcoming ASUS Z97-WS workstation motherboard featuring the Z97 chipset."
Motherboards
Since the popularisation of mini-ITX motherboards a few years ago (if I remember correctly they took off with the Intel 6 series chipset) the price of mini-ITX motherboards has been falling sharply. However, combined with that falling price has also been rising quality, increasing innovation and more features – particularly with ASUS mini-ITX motherboards. Irrespective of which motherboard vendor you prefer it would be fair to say ASUS have driven a lot of the mini-ITX innovation over the past few years. Today we’re looking at the culmination of some of this innovation, but for a respectably low price of just $160. Enter the ASUS Z97I-PLUS which is one of the new ASUS Z97 motherboards that has ingenious ways of taking advantage of all the great features we’ve come to expect from a fully fledged PC. ASUS have managed to cram M.2 on the board by moving it underneath, they’ve added a WiFi AC and Bluetooth 4.0 module, equipped four SATA III ports, included fairly high quality ALC 892 audio and offered up the latest Intel Gigabit LAN. Despite the motherboard’s size you still get a fully fleshed out rear I/O and an impressive 6 phase VRM. On paper the ASUS Z97I-PLUS looks like a very impressive Z97 mini-ITX motherboard so let’s proceed on with our review to see what the product and its performance has in store for us!

The workstation and server marketrelies on pure processing power, so can Asus take the powerof two Xeons to produce a top end number crunchingboard?

Today, we are able to retire our Intel Core i7 2600K processor from our motherboard test bench! Intel has officially launched the Intel 22nm 'Ivy Bridge' series of processors! Nate will be taking an in-depth look at the Intel Core i7 3770K 22nm processor architecture and performance which you can find here. We will be looking at the performance of four different Intel Z77 motherboards with an Intel Core i7 3770K 22nm 'Ivy Bridge' processor...

Zwar hat AMD noch keinen offiziellen Termin bekanntgegeben, doch ist es schon längst klar, dass die Trinity APU für den Desktop Bereich vor der Tür steht. Doch aber was machen wenn man aktuell auf eine verfügbare APU setzen möchte, die auch etwas mehr Leistung bieten kann? Wir haben uns aus diesem Grund noch einmal die Llano Plattform bzw. ein entsprechendes Mainboard dazu angesehen. Biostar kommt mit dem preisgünstigen A75MH Ableger daher und will damit auf Kundenfang gehen.

OCIA.net has posted their review of the Biostar A880G+ AMD Motherboard. Below is a direct quote from the review.

BIOSTAR has arrived to the market with their high-end board a little bit later but not without a lot of improvements like a revamped design, a bonus Gaming Commander box, a solid VRM, USB 3.1 capabilities, a redesigned and easier to use UEFI and more. Through the board features we cannot help but to remind of the superior audio implementation, SATA Express and M.2 support (slot which is hidden under the plastic shroud for a stylish appearance) and good overclocking results.

Die Kombination aus CPU und GPU macht AMDs aktuelle APU-Generation attraktiv für Wohnzimmer- und Multimedia-PCs. Gepaart mit einem BluRay-Laufwerk können sie damit Konsolen, BluRay-Player und Mediaplayer aus den heimischen TV-Racks verbannen. Eine solide Hauptplatine und eine gute Soundkarte sollten natürlich auch vorhanden sein, um das Multimedia-Erlebnis abzurunden. Und genau das soll das Biostar A85W auch umsetzten können. Mit einem überdurchschnittlichen Onboard-Sound und zahlreichen Features ist es ideal für dieses Einsatzgebiet. Inwiefern Biostar diese Versprechen einhalten kann, klären wir im folgenden Testbericht.

Today we are going to take a look at the Biostar Hi-Fi A85W motherboard which features the same A85X chipset as the Gigabyte F2A85XM-D3H that we reviewed recently. Consequently, it features AMD’s FM2 socket which supports the latest ‘Trinity’ APUs.
Motherboards
Based on AMD A85X Chipset, the BIOSTAR Hi-Fi A85W motherboard supports the latest Socket FM2 'Trinity' APUs and is priced under $100. Biostar also optimized this particular board for high quality sound reproduction, so audiophiles are in luck! Read on to see how the BIOSTAR Hi-Fi A85W motherboard does when we put it to the test with an AMD A10-5800K APU!
