“With AMDs recent release of their APUs it was only a matter of time before the technology came to small factor computers.  In the past, you needed a Motherboard, CPU, and GPU (either discrete or integrated into the motherboard) to have a working system.  However with the E-350 this is all rolled into one miniscule package.  Today we will be looking at a slightly different solution called the Zotac Fusion-B-U.”

“BIOSTAR’s TZ77XE4 is as you may have guessed based off the name is an Intel Z77 based motherboard which is what our Taiwan lab is mainly full of at the moment. It will be interesting to see how BIOSTAR sit when compared to some of the other Z77 boards we’ve looked at since launch.”

“This mainboard boasts very numerous advantages: high-quality packaging, remarkably rich accessories bundle, smart components layout. The functionality of the Intel Z77 Express chipset used in this board has been significantly expanded. However, if you decide on this particular mainboard for your next gaming rig, there are a few peculiarities that you should keep in mind.”

“To some, Z77 may not be a big fuss, as it only offers slight benefits over Z68, but we saw very much a similar experience with P67 to Z68 and so far Z77 has actually been a big success, and you can see the huge array of reviews that we had at launch, from various brands including Asus, Biostar, ECS, Gigabyte and MSI to name but a few.”

“Panther Point, the Z77 chipset, launched simultaneously with the brand new Intel Ivy Bridge CPU’s. Supporting PCI-3.0, native USB3.0, high BCLK and RAM frequencies, but only if bundled with one of Intel’s 3d generation CPU’s. As usual, vendors launched a wide variety of boards, from low end basic OEM boards to high end gamer/overclocking versions.”

“Gigabyte’s GA-A75M-UD2H is an entry level motherboard with onboard graphics, excellent connectivity and a rather appealing low total system price tag. This microATX motherboard is of course built around the AMD A75 chipset and supports socket FM1 AMD Fusion processors which offer integrated DX11 graphics.”

Z77 Motherboard Roundup

Z77 Motherboard Roundup @ Neoseeker

“In this roundup we are going to be examining a wide range of motherboards based on the Intel Z77 design from manufacturers such as ASRock, ECS, Gigabyte and Intel. Each board comes with its own unique feature set, but since they all support the latest Ivy Bridge processors they should all have around the same level of performance, and memory support.”

Biostar TZ77XE4

“With the launch of Intel’s latest Z77 Express platform, Biostar steps up to the plate with a new game in mind, ready to hit a homerun. Featuring a new aesthetic design, and a new more efficient VRM design, the Biostar TZ77XE4 is ready to knock one clear out of the park.”

“Gigabyte introduced their gamer-oriented “Sniper” branded motherboard series with the X58 chipset and today they continue the Sniper 3 series with the Z77 chipset and we have to say, it’s a real badass looking motherboard. So let’s get it to our lab and on the test bench, and see what Gigabyte has in store.”

ASRock Z77E-ITX

ASRock Z77E-ITX @ TweakTown

“From there it’s time to check out the BIOS to find out what our options look like and we’ll of course check out the overclocking area before we move into the testbed and then the overclocking capabilities of the board. First, though, as we mentioned let’s check out the package and see some of the main features that are offered from the ASRock Z77E-ITX.”
