Review [ENG]: MSI DKA790GX Platinum Motherboard

Darco | October 22, 2008

MSI has built a stellar motherboard with the DKA790GX Platinum board. The board has all of the features that you would want from a 790GX motherboard including HD 3300 graphics with CrossfireX capability, ACC overclocking and more. From a performance point of view, the DKA790GX has nearly the same performance as the other 790GX board that I tested, meaning that it is pretty high on the totem pole. It did work better in Hybrid CrossFire than our previous 790GX boards and that is a very good thing. MSI DKA790GX Platinum @ Motherboards.org

Review [ENG]: DFI Lanparty JR P45-T2RS mATX Motherboard

Darco |

Well what can we say other than that for a micro ATX board DFI managed to squeeze most things you need into a smaller package. In terms of motherboard features, the Lanparty JR P45-T2RS has almost all of the options of a full-sized board including CrossFire, 8 channel HD audio, heatpipe cooling, CMOS Reloaded and a solid design with all solid capacitors. The only thing really lacking compared to a standard board is a Firewire port. All the features tested in this review worked as promised and setup was quite straightforward. For motherboard layout, DFI did a good job in squeezing everything possible onto a smaller board. The layout is actually great; connectors are in the most convenient places, the 24 pin ATX connector is out of the way on the right edge and there are two CMOS jumpers (which is good because you will need them!). The PCI-E slots leave enough space to use full-sized water blocks on GPUs or even dual slot coolers although the second card covers one of the CMOS jumpers. One thing in the build that may limit the top end use for enthusiasts is 4 layer pcb and 4 phase PWM. DFI Lanparty JR P45-T2RS @ HardwareCanucks

Review [ENG]: MSI P45 Diamond Motherboard

Darco | October 20, 2008

MSI’s P45 Diamond is an attractively packaged motherboard (just check out the size of the box!) that performs well for the price. It costs about a third of the price compared to seriously high-end solutions from the like of ASUS and Foxconn, but it’s comparable to Intel’s X48 and nVidia’s 790 chipsets when it comes to everyday usage and gaming. It looks pretty neat (the CircuPipe and the water-cooled Northbridge block in particular), sports an impressive array of onboard features, and the BIOS offers good overclocking and tweaking options. The P45 Diamond isn’t the most powerful solution for extreme users (that’ll be one based on Intel’s imminent X58 chipset and Corei7 processors), but it’s a decent all-rounder for the price.

Review [ENG]: DFI Lanparty DK P45-T2RS Plus Motherboard

Darco | October 16, 2008

At the end of the day, I sit back and smile because DFI has done it again, like I expected from this mainstream overclocking motherboard. The performance is again top notch and as we hoped, overclocking is easy. We have seen people hit FSB frequencies up to 690MHz with this motherboard, still using the stock northbridge cooling; that says enough, no? Agreed, if you’re not interested in overclocking at all, there’s no need to choose this board over any other one, simply because there are no extras. If you want to build a system that offers more than the mere minimum, leave this one on the shelves and check out, for instance, the Asus Maximus II Formula, which offers so much more than only overclocking. The price is higher, of course. DFI Lanparty DK P45-T2RS Plus @ Madshrimps

Review [ENG]: Gigabyte GA-EP45-DS3P mbo

Darco | October 12, 2008

Believe it or not Gigabyte lists 18 models of motherboard that are built around the Intel P45 chipset. Add the G45, P43, G43 and X48 chipsets into the equation and the total number of current Core 2 models rises to 29 which is confusing to say the least, so it’s worth taking a moment to see exactly where the GA-EP45-DS3P fits into Gigabyte’s product range. Every P45 model has a model code that starts GA-EP45 so it’s the suffix that we’re interested in, which in this case is DS3P. This is an Ultra Durable 2 motherboard so the area around the CPU socket is typically neat and tidy and that won’t change with the transition to Ultra Durable 3 as the chokes, capacitors and MOSFETs look the same. The cooling system is slightly more extensive than we would expect for a DS3 model with a heatpipe linking the passive cooler on the power regulation hardware behind the IO panel and the cooler on the Northbridge. The tiny cooler on the hardware at the top of the board and the similarly small Southbridge cooler aren’t connected and have to rely on the airflow inside the case to keep them cool.

Review [ENG]: Gigabyte EP45-T Extreme Review & Overclocking

Darco |

The Gigabyte EP45-T Extreme is an excellent board, even with its DDR3 timing shortcomings.It has great I/O expandability, and an excellent feature set; it was quite stable during testing - and I never had to remove the CMOS battery no matter how I tried to overclock it! I liked all the copper heatsinks and heatpipes too, and the debug LED and on-board switches are great when tweaking. Don’t put too much weight on the good, but less than stellar DDR3 performance - the performance is “good enough” that you can only tell the shortcomings of the P45 on some benchmarks, and it does not greatly affect benchmarks; frankly the easy overclockability and feature set outweigh the slight performance loss on the memory side of things.
