ASUS M4A Series to Spearhead Company's AM3 Motherboard Initial LineupWith motherboards based on AMD's newest AM3 socket surfacing from the likes of ECS and ASRock, market heavyweights such as ASUS have decided to pixellate their offerings on the internet. ASUS for one has two motherboards in the pipeline, under the M4A series. As the series name suggests, It's based on the AM3 socket (AM2+ was M3A) and based on AMD chipset. AM3 boards based on NVIDIA nForce chipset will be most likely called the M4N series.
Here are the initial offerings: M4A78 Pro and M4A79 Deluxe. The two are based on the AMD 780G and 790FX chipsets respectively. Both the motherboards use DDR2 memory. A complete range of AM2, AM2+ and AM3 socket CPUs are supported. Surprisingly neither support DDR3 memory, the one that makes AM3 stand apart from AM2+. The two are expected to be released in January, their prices are unknown at this point in time.
Sauce Isn't it strange for asus to release an AM3 mobo but without DDR3 support??
I could understand if they put both DDR2 n DDR3 at the same mobo but only DDR2?? Does this really qualify to be called AM3 mobo??
Ah Soh oh Ah Soh..
