A75 AMD motherboards at Computex

Many motherboard manufacturers have presented their motherboards AMD A75 to accommodate a processor Llano. This architecture was previously reserved for laptops, but AMD will market models for desktop computers. Asus, Gigabyte, Foxconn, MSI and ASRock have shown their models using AMD A75 chipset and Socket FM1.

Foxconn, Gigabyte and MSI have presented their models Micro-ATX. That Foxconn has not been named yet, is that of the Gigabyte GA-A75M-UD2H and MSI has appointed his A75MA-G55. The first is distinguished by a minimalist approach and may even be too cheap according to our colleagues from VR-Zone.

Indeed, early images, connectivity is limited to six USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, an Ethernet port and connections like 7.1. No optical outputs, FireWire and two USB 3.0 ports. The capacitors are also classic models to the electrolyte, less efficient than solid capacitors that are now very common on motherboards GA-A75M-UD2H is more serious.

There are two PCI-Express 16x instead of on the model from Foxconn who nevertheless had a PCI-Express 1x, unlike the Gigabyte model. Found by two PCI cons on both cards. GA-A75M-UD2H also includes a SATA 6 Gb / s in addition to bring the total to five. There are also two times more USB 3.0 ports and an eSATA port in addition to FireWire and optical audio output that we reported previously.

The MSI model, the G55-A75MA approaches the Gigabyte card, but has two PCI-Express graphics port and 1x. The firm has chosen to use a voltage regulator in four phases, coils and capacitors more upscale. Regarding the ATX models, configurations are conventional. GA-A75-UD4H Gigabyte is distinguished by the absence of PCI Express 1x or 4x the benefit of two ports and two PCI 16x.

Its GA-A75-D3h cons adds two ports 1x. The record is still held by the G35-A75A MSI which includes two PCI-Express x16, three PCI and two 1x ASUS F1A75 which offers two ports 16x slots, two x1 and three PCI slots. SATA ports vary between five and six. ASRock nevertheless stands by the presence of eight SATA ports and a card A75 Extreme6 well built.

It is a direct competitor of Foxconn and it also addresses market entry, but he still managed to distinguish itself with the presence of three PCI-Express, two, three PCI slots and a PCI-Express 1x and solid capacitors. Prices and availability dates are unknown.
