In the excitement associated with having the best processor or motherboard we sometimes forget that our systems have gotten a little overpowered for the average every day user. That's not to say we can't use 6 processor cores or can benefit from an insanely fast memory controller but rather that we don't always need all of that power to check email or watch a high quality movie.

The Gigabyte F2A85XN-WiFi motherboard uses a mini-ITX form factor which makes it ideal for HTPC and compact builds. The F2A85XN-WiFi supports AMD A-series and Athlon series processors that use the FM2 socket. The AMD A85X chipset on the F285XN-WiFi provides four USB 3.0 ports, six USB 2.0 ports and four SATA6 ports for connectivity. For network connectivity, Gigabyte has outfitted the F2A85XNWiFi with a Realtek Gigabit LAN chip and a dual-band Qualcomm 802.11 a/b/g/n with Bluetooth 4.0 Wireless module comes pre-installed onboard. The Gigabyte F2A85XNWiFi supports up to three displays simultaneously via the integrated APU graphics via a DVI-D port and a pair of HDMI 1.4a ports.

GIGABYTE has been a key player in AMD overclocking for awhile now. Their latest generation of motherboards for the AMD FM2 platform aren't looking to break that streak either. Earlier this week it was announced that the GIGABYTE F2A85X-UP4 was able to set the record for the highest clock speed on the AMD A10-5800K 'Trinity' APU. Today we are going take a look at the GIGABYTE F2A85X-UP4 in all of it's glory and put it through the paces! Read on to find out how well it does!

The second generation of AMD A-Series APUs is now among us. Hopefully you have been able to read our articles about the newest AMD Trinity Processors. Those APUs are nice, but they amount to nothing without a motherboard to pair them with. At Benchmark Reviews, we tested those APUs with the Gigabyte F2A85X-UP4 Socket FM2 A85X Motherboard. While the A85X chipset brings a few minor changes to the FCH, Gigabyte has added a lot of their own features to the F2A85X-UP4 motherboard to ensure that it meets all of the needs of early FM2 adopters.

Gigabyte EX58 Extreme is probably one of the most complete socket 1366 motherboards based on Intel X58 chipset (with the ICH10R south bridge chip) for Core I7 processors available on the market today, with features not found on most competitors, such as three PCI Express x16 slots with support for SLI and CrossFireX modes, 16-phase voltage regulator circuit, liquid cooling waterblock on the chipset, POST diagnostics display and several other features commonly found on Gigabyte's high-end motherboards, such as passive heatsink with heatpipes for the chipset and voltage regulator transistors, solid aluminum capacitors and ferrite chokes. Let's take a look in the motherboard and see what you should expect from it.
