ECS GF9300TA @ Guru3D
“We’ll see integrated IGPs more and more in the years to come, and mark my words… we feel that this trend is becoming normalized in the mainstream market. We peek at a GF9300 mainboard, the model tested comes from the fine folks at ECS, and as always… they were quick enough to send us their “Black Edition” model, a product series that is doing so very well in the EU and USA thanks to it’s nice design and additional features.”
DFI LANPARTY DK P45-T2RS Plus @ MadShrimps
“The P45 chipset has been out on the market for quite some time now and motherboards are widely available. But as usual, it takes a bit more time for DFI to tweak and tune their version of the P45. Today, we have a look at the P45-T2RS Plus motherboard, let’s find out if it was worth the wait.”
ASUS M3N78 Pro @ Motherboards.org
“Overclocking features are adequate, but this board is really not for the hardcore gamer or enthusiast buyer.As a HTPC motherboard this is great as the onboard video has HDMI and has the ability to run 7.1 surround- sound through the HDMI port. NVIDIA really needs to launch a faster integrated graphics processor if they intend to compete with ATI on pure performance comparisons.”
Gigabyte EP45-T Extreme @ Neoseeker
“On one hand, it ran fine with up to 500MHz (2000MHz) FSB with few changes other than Vcore and Vfsb being bumped to 1.45V and 1.4V respectively, as long as the DDR3 timings were left at “Auto” and no attempt was made to exceed about 1600MHz memory speed with pretty sad auto timings. On the other hand, the memory performance of the P45 chipset – as my other P45 reviews showed – is sub-standard compared to the X38 and even P35 chipsets.”
