The ECS HDC-I is a Mini-ITX motherboard with an AMD E-350 CPU soldered on it, aimed on HTPCs and multimedia PCs. Let's test it.
Mit den beiden "Llano"-Prozessoren A8-3850 und A8-3650 haben wir uns bereits die ersten beiden CPUs der neuen Desktop-APUs von AMD angeschaut. Doch auch wenn die integrierte Grafik zu überzeugen weiß, so ist man noch immer auf ein Mainboard angewiesen und auch hier sind entscheidende Unterschiede auszumachen, die den Gesamteindruck der Plattform beeinflussen können. Wir haben uns einmal sechs Platinen zur Brust genommen. Die Palette reicht dabei von günstigen Versionen entsprechender Hersteller, die für ebenso günstige Mainboards bekannt sind, bis hin zu teuren Platinen, deren Hersteller mit exklusiven Features und Optik auftrumpfen wollen. Wo die Unterschiede liegen und welches Mainboard das richtige ist, versuchen wir auf den folgenden Seiten zu klären.
The G1-Killer Sniper 2 is a Z68 based motherboard that has been designed specifically for hardcore gaming. In a world where gaming and enthusiast systems have been combined we find this to be a rather bold product decision.
I'm not sure why, but I'm a huge fan of the tiny mITX form factor. It's come a long way from the days of VIA powered boards and while they indeed were cool, they just didn't have the performance you could get out of mATX or larger boards which could carry those faster Intel and AMD CPUs. The format has really blown up lately, though, and we're seeing more and more companies offer mITX boards based on chipsets that indeed offer the chance to give us some real performance. Today we're looking at the ASUS P8H67-I which as you can possibly tell from the name, is based on the H67 chipset.
There are a wide array of motherboard manufacturers cranking out AM3+ boards, with chipsets ranging from the venerable 760G up through the gamut of 800 series. Of course AMD has also refreshed its chipset naming to match the new CPUs, and motherboards based on the 970, 990X and top dog 990FX are also available. It's two of these 900 series of boards that ASUS has sent over for review; the one we will be focusing on today is the Sabertooth 990FX.
GIGABYTE is known for putting out very high quality hardware. Today should be no different, at least in terms of quality. What we have to play with today is a little bit different in terms of features. If you have been following the latest Intel Chipsets, the Intel Z68 Chipset has the capabilities to utilize a SSD to speed up the performance of a traditional Hard Drive. The GIGABYTE Z68XP-UD3-iSSD features an integrated Intel Series 311 20GB SSD that is designed for exactly that! How does it perform? Read on to find out!
Der Einstieg in die Welt von FM1 beginnt bei Mainboards mit rund 50 €. Das MSI A75MA-G55 das wir in unseren zwei Llano-Artikeln verwendet haben kostet bereits 20 € mehr. Das Sapphire Pure Platinum A75 stellt mit 115 € das teuerste Mainboard für die Lynx-Plattform dar. Es hat also bei vielen Usern einen schweren Stand, denn Lynx mit der A-Serie-APU von AMD ist für den Mainstream gedacht und wer kauft schon ein Mainboard, das teurer ist als die APU, die ja bereits CPU und GPU in sich trägt. Wir wollen dieser Frage nachgehen und schauen, ob das Board von Sapphire seinen Preis wert ist und wie sich das MSI im Vergleich schlägt.
I'm just going to come out and say it. When GIGABYTE released the G1 line-up, I hated it. I was really bummed that they decided to concentrate on the X58 chipset and ignore the P67 chipset. By the time the G1 line came out the 2600k had well and truly established itself as the processor to buy thanks to its strong overclocking potential and excellent price point.
A few months later in May Intel launched an updated Sandy Bridge chipset called Z68 which essentially takes the best features of the P67 and H67 and combines them into one. With a Z68 board, users can overclock the CPU and use the integrated Intel HD graphics. Previously, if you wanted to overclock, you had to buy a P67 board and you had to use a discrete graphics card. If you wanted to use the integrated graphics, you needed an H67 board but then you couldn't overclock the CPU. In addition to these combined features, Z68 also introduces a new feature called Smart Response Technology (SRT) which uses a solid state drive to cache data from a traditional spinning hard drive.
La belle Lynnfield eut comme mission de transposer au commun des mortels la grosse débauche de puissance contenue dans la plate-forme X58 + Core i7 9xx. Elle y parvint assez bien avec cependant un chipset très castré, le P55, qui lui valut des moqueries pas franchement imméritées. Puis au bout d'une petite année, Intel décida qu'il était temps pour elle de raccrocher les crampons, alors qu'elle venait d'accueillir les premiers CPU 32nm de la firme, mais hélas aucun n'était quadcore et donc à même de conserver un peu d'intérêt pour le LGA1156. Sandy arriva et ce fut le glas qui sonna pour Lynnfield. Pour autant, Asrock a continué à développer des solutions bizarres complètement hors de la mouvance, et c'est tant mieux. Car la firme est la seule à proposer une carte mère P67, chipset dévolu au LGA1155 , po ur les CPU LGA1156 Lynnfield ce qui en théorie est censé effacer les grosses lacunes du P55 niveau débits Sata 6Gbps et USB3.0. Voilà donc le tour du propriétaire de cette carte mère atypique, mais pas dénuée d'intérêt, loin de là !
