my new thread wish is to not become top spammer ever again... 

asus did it again... 


pros:
- 10 phase pwm
- hw core unlockin switch

cons:
- $$$
- bad layout for cf (cards w/ big heatsink) + pci-e sound card

RM75x for a 890gx board still consider not bad? no wonder ur rich... 
SGD. 
what would u expect from asus bro? i better off place my bets (on behalf of u guys) on biostar for value, dfi, msi, & giga for mid to high end. 
it's d same if u dun have any $$$ sis... 

me really would wait for some magic....890GX on paper currently doesn't really make your spine tingling...if you already have 790GX or790FX, 890GX in terms of function, wouldn't justify the upgrade...

The IGP also its just a small bump from the 785 models.... why dun put in HD5200

t+1
dont have baget here...
i rekemen giga 770 ud3h rm320..or u want the usb3 is 770t ud3
or biostar ta790gx a3 -rm370++

@ts
that msi kindda cheap leh..replace gd65 that is around 500? kekeke..450 > 500,so the price will increase la..kekekeke

ECS A785GM-AD3 (Black Series)

lol... ECS also comes with BE.. xD

but 95W really x worth.. cant put Quad BE..
lately kept searching for MOBO...
and finally search something nice... AM2+/AM3, DDR2 and DDR3 support (combo series), Crossfire, integrated HD3300~

@tplus1
jetway?
i would not take it if i were u..
u can only slot in 2rams at one time..either ddr2 or ddr3..
if u want to stay ddr2, buy ddr2 mobo..if want ddr3.buy ddr2 mobo..
and they lay out also ugly..kekeke

lolz... i knw... just jetway got... but i am low on budget... and DDR3 seems super expensive... lolz... DDR2 in the other way is way more cheap and easy to get 2nd hand in low low price... wakaka...

and since i am building my own, when i got more $$, imma get DDR3... so, why not DDR2/DDR3? lol...

btw... let me knw whts the bad of jetway? haha... support still??? very weak? but the spec seems ok to me? lolz....

or isit nt OC friendly?

hmmmmm......... mobo really will affect the quality? i thought if chipset 790, then all same?

guess i will just wait for more budget then... and get abit or biostar

typo brader     

ok..here my view..
u want to use back ddr2..so go ahead buying ddr2 mobo..if u bought jetway.u still use the ddr2 ram..so? u get urself a crap (perhaps) mobo with ddr2..
if later u want to upgrade, u just upgrade to ddr3 ram.. so u end up using ddr3 ram with crap mobo and the performance more or less the same with ddr2

sifu, do correct me with the crap term..if u think that mobo not so crap la

Added on March 9, 2010, 2:20 pmcloudwan.. JW and jetway the same ka? i thought they are different

it's not a secret that i'm a asus basher. i'm not a fanboy of any brand (well, except dfi but from what i heard we can barely see any amd board from dfi nowadays). ofcoz, i will be happy to be proved wrong, w/ that kinda price tag, it's quite temptin to be honest. but d look... even biopening is better...

high end wise need not to elaborate more... cun but price is another turn off... 

mebe i should post a want to loan thread in vrz...   

Foxconn Intros AMD 890GX-based Digital Life Series Motherboards
OEM major Foxconn made additions to its own channel brand of motherboards with two Digital Lifes series models based on the AMD 890GX chipset, supporting socket AM3 processors. The nearly identical Foxconn Digital Life A9DA-S and A9DA (pictured in the same order below), are ATX boards building on the features the chipset provides. The CPU is powered by an 8-phase VRM. The AMD 890GX embeds an ATI Radeon HD 4290 class IGP with 128 MB (+UMA) SidePort memory and connectivity which includes DVI, D-Sub, and HDMI.

Expansion slots include two each of PCI-Express 2.0 x16 (electrical x8 when both are populated), PCI-E x1, and PCI. The SB850 southbridge gives out six SATA 6 Gb/s ports. Other standard features include 8-channel HD audio, gigabit Ethernet, and a number of USB 2.0 ports. The A9DA-S is the more premium variant, it has a heatsink over the CPU VRM, and a VIA 2-port FireWire controller. The two should be available in stores soon.

touch wood!!! not in a million year bro... 

dfi all d way... but sadly we see nothing from 'em for 8xx series till now... 

biostar 890fxe was a let down (5+1 pwm not really enuf for 6 cores imo), gigabyte ud3 w/ 4+1 pwm... if lucid hydra chip can do near to real x-fire performance, i'm rootin for msi 870a-gd60 on behalf of u guys (at least u) bro... 

10+1 pwm & 2 * full 16x pci-e lanes for gfx... fwahhh...       

this time it is really weird, i throw all the voltages to stock, vcore 1.325v (+0v)

only rams @ 1.65v

running almost 4hrs...

tmpin2 = core temp minus ~2 °C
tmpin1 = nb i think

AMD Phenom II X6 'Thuban' and Phenom II X4 'Zosma' Tabled on Roadmaps
A list of new Phenom II series processors were tabled in a company road map. The road map confirms AMD's naming scheme for the Phenom II X6 brand, and also sheds light on a new line of quad-core processors. In the second quarter of this year, AMD will introduce Phenom II X6 six-core models 1075T, 1055T, and 1035T. While the 1075T has a TDP of 125W, the 1055T comes in 125W and 95W variants (likely one following the other), and 1035T is the slowest model with 95W TDP. All Phenom II X6 models are based on the Thuban core (a desktop, socket AM3 implementation of the Istanbul die). Each of the six cores has 128 KB of L1, 512 KB L2 caches, and a 6 MB L3 cache is shared between all cores. The HyperTransport 3.0 interconnect operates at 4.8 GT/s.

The new line of quad-core processors here, is the Phenom II X4 900T series. The first member in this series is the Phenom II X4 960T. These processors are created using Thuban dies by disabling two cores. It helps AMD salvage its foundry produce with minor defects, and also target lower price points. The resulting die is codenamed "Zosma". Zosma in X4 960T has a TDP of 95W. Probably it has a lower clock speed than the "Deneb" Phenom II X4 965, but is placed in the same league, in terms of performance. One of its biggest "unintentional" unique selling points is that since it's based on a die that has six physical cores, some customers could get lucky by unlocking them to a six-core processor, at a much lower price-point. Even as several motherboard manufacturers have innovated ways to unlock disabled cores, and are advertising their unlocking features, it is not guaranteed that a Zosma would unlock into Thuban, just as Callisto/Heka to Deneb unlocking doesn't always work out. Going by AMD's road map, these processors will be released some time in May.

yalor, one nite stand x aci maa... 
lai lai... throw me ya 125watter bro, i dun mind one... 

we'll see x 4>6 gudness soon... 

hopefully 7xx series board will do as gud... 

why? where's d pitih u got from d x3 + mobo sales...  :/(
Sauce

hmm... hopefully it's not chipset related since it's to operate at hardware level... c-state thingy usually related to chip itself only rite? 
zosma = thuban w/ 2 cores disabled. if 7xx series can support thuban, it's just d matter of time manufacturers/bios modders to come out w/ core unlockin bios. on 7xx series, core unlockin is done via inclusion of microcode in bios... on 890gx, core unlockin is done via hw eg a switch like what asus is doin now. not so sure how asrock's ucc functions but their 890gx extreme looks yummy...  :/drool:

wait..thuban 45nm right? how AMD make the tdp lower?
even on c3 its a mystery to me...

hello para ocer AMD sekalian

i got a question here regarding a couple of motherboard.

Gigabyte 770T-UD3P and the newer 770T-USB3

is there any significant changes between the 2 other than the newer USB 3 standard and the 8pin power connector placement??

thanks in advance.

cant find the 770TA-UD3 listed on any of pricelist on the frontpage.

any estimate for the price??

belum lagi bro, but w/o core unlockin support (i assume since it's usin sb850) so it's not really a gud choice for budget users who wanna do core unlockin on this board. layout wise + pwm is great thou... what a pity... 

oc for my phenom x2 555.
