MSI Z68A-GD80 (G3) @ Bjorn3D
“The Z68 Chipset is now considered to be the flagship for the latest Sandy Bridge platform. The original P67 was only able to utilize the CPU and not the onboard Intel Integrated Graphics, but the Z68 chipset is able to use both discrete and integrated graphics that Intel offers with LucidLogix Virtu technology.”
ASUS P8H67-M EVO @ Hardware Secrets
“Motherboards based on the Intel H67 chipset are the best option if you are building a basic PC with integrated video using an Intel processor, or need an affordable motherboard using the microATX form factor for building a small form factor (SFF) PC. Currently, ASUS has six motherboards based on this chipset. Let’s take a look at the P8H67-M EVO, which is a microATX solution featuring two PCI Express x16 slots.”
Three LGA1155 Mainboards @ X-Bit Labs
“The LGA1155 mainboards from ASUS we tested before stood out due to an integrated Bluetooth controller, great EFI BIOS implementation, rich functionality and good overclocking-friendly options. ASUS P8Z68 Deluxe, P8Z68-V Pro and P8Z68-V have all of the above.”
ECS A75F-A AMD FM1 @ TechPowerUp
“ECS is back, with another “Black Series” product, the ECS A75F-A. Built for the recently released Llano AMD APUs, the ECS A75F-A offers entry-level pricing, with quite a few enthusiast features. We take the shinig knight in black armor, and put it into battle!”
ASRock Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 @ Madshrimps
“The new Z68 Extreme4 Gen3 motherboard from ASRock comes with a rich software bundle, but also very useful features like C.C.O., Intel Smart Response Technology, Lucid VIRTU or PCI-E 3.0 slots (to be used with future Ivy Bridge CPUs). The color scheme has been reworked, so now the motherboard has a more professional look.”
Z68 Motherboard Roundup @ OC Club
“The Z68 lineup from ASUS is something that you should think twice about getting your feet into, as all three of the boards that were tested in this roundup were able to perform quite well. When you are looking at the overclocking alone on the three boards, the ASUS P8Z68 DELUXE was able to get a little higher of an overclock, however all three of the boards were able to keep the i7 2600K above 4700MHz.”
ASRock Z68 Extreme7 Gen3 @ Motherboards.org
“Smart Response is the technology that allows the user to pair a small SSD drive with a larger capacity mechanical drive, and achieve nearly the same performance as a stand-alone SSD drive. This is an incredible feature that we’ve reviewed here in the past with really impressive results. Intel’s efforts to give their consumers better performance at a reasonable price, is demonstrated by this feature.”
ASUS F1A75-I Deluxe @ TweakTown
“Like every mITX board I see shown on our news page, when I saw the ASUS F1A75-I Deluxe I instantly said to myself “It must be mine”. I say it every time, I love the mITX format, but there’s just something about an ASUS version of boards. It just tends to stand out more than its competitors.”
ECS A55F-A @ TBreak
“So what the ECS A55F-A doesn’t feature is USB 3.0 and SATA III (6gbps) ports, but these cuts were designed to save on costs. You still get one PCIe x16 slot, with another running at x4 speeds, plus 4x DIMM slots that support up to 2600MHz DDR3 memory. Oh, and there are 6x USB 2.0 ports on the back, should you need them.”
Intel D525MW @ Hardware Secrets
“The Atom D525 processor that comes soldered on the Intel D525MW motherboard is a “Pineview” model, with two processing cores and a 1.8 GHz clock, which is currently the most powerful Atom CPU available. It has a 1 MB L2 cache, is manufactured under 45 nm technology, and has a TDP of 13 W. The integrated memory controller supports up to 4 GB of as much as DDR2-800 or DDR3-800 memory, in single channel configuration.”
