first I want to review the internal graphics chipset on this MSi Motherboard. The HD 4290 is much like ATI HD 4350, so this video card is the lowest end of the HD 4xxx series and supports DirextX 10.1. In the MSi 890GXM-G65 motherboard, The Video card is clocked at 700 MHx. The motherboard also comes with the upcoming 6-core bfrom AMD proocessor. In 890GX chipset supports 10W CPUs. and also supports the X3 and current Phenom II X4 CPUs. This AMD motherboard has 2 missing pins in the socket AM3 and doesn’t support Socket AM2.

In MSI website, the 890GXM-G65 doesn’t support Hybrid SLI like in NVIDIA chipset but the motherboard supports Hybrid Crossfire which allow users to install aHD 4350 or HD 5450 card, it means users can improve the integrated graphics performance.

What is special thing about AMD’s 890GX which has been added in MSi motherboard. This chipset is the only one can fully support SATA 6Gbps drives withoyt a bridge chip. The 890GXM-G6b5 motherboard supports USB 3.0 which offers user 10x bandwith in USB 2.0.

When you use this motherboard for 3d gaming is required more power than to type texts or surf the internet. Because the Active Phase Switching is controlled from the CPU, Chipset PWM and Memory. The board of this Msi 890GXM G65 motherboard has LEDs, it is useful to show you when the board is on full load. Except MSi, the motherboard manufacture such Asus, Gigabyte, Biostar etc has a type of APS on the boards, but MSI motherboard has control over the phases in linux as well as windows. In this Amd motherboard has 4 power phases under the 10W CPU ready heatsink.

In some editions ago, I has been discussed in full on P55 motherboard that uses socket 1156. In the article, I also mentioned that motherboards with this chipset can be paired with two types of the latest processors from Intel, the Core processors and the Core i7 i5 which bersandikan Lynnfield. Core i5 has four cores, while the Core i7 also has four cores and uses HyperThreading. That way, users of P55 motherboards that want to upgrade the processor from the processor to a Core i7 Core i5 no longer need him to replace the motherboard.

After the launch of Lynnfield-based processors, all the motherboard vendors are competing to create a P55-based motherboards. Motherboard prices offered vary. There is a high price with a pair of new facilities and functions as a USB SATA 3 and 3, there also have a price below U.S. $ 200. Obviously, a more affordable price will be able to attract people who have limited funds, but want to feel the speed held Lynnfield-based processors.

At this time the comparison test, test CHIP P55 chipset motherboards that use to find where the fastest and best. There are 17 pieces of motherboards from various vendors who come to the test center. Itesting done in this article a little differently than usual. Comparison tests this time is the prime ratio tests using the new Microsoft operating system, Windows 7. In addition to testing the system update, such as using patch 1:06 Sysmark 2007 with the full support of Windows 7, Ialso added some new tests which will become the standard testing of I. Therefore, before deciding to buy a P55 motherboard, it never hurts you read this comparison test article first so you get a reference material in the purchase.

As is known, the chipset released by ATI is a response to SLI platform much earlier released by Nvidia. Even so, in terms of features and performance, of course, RD480 motherboard which is also aimed at power users or gaming segment is not less than the nForce 4 SLI version. In fact, in terms of price, its position under berchipset SLI motherboard. Let us discuss both these A8R-MVP.

As a socket 939 motherboard, of course Asus A8R-MVP supports all socket 939 processors AMD output, either single-core or dual core. The following technical specifications of the motherboard Asus A8R-MVP. In terms of appearance, nothing too unique in this series motherboards. At first glance, this motherboard layout similar to the A8N-SLI series, for example in the use of the heatspreader on the MOSFET, the placement holder processor and DIMM slots, power ports, and several other complementary components.

Equipment and Layout

In the sales package, ASUS is only included as standard equipment on most motherboards are two SATA cables and the power is, two ATA 100 cable and a floppy cable, I / O shield, manual, firewire cable and a USB port extra. Asus provides a metal plate on the back of the board, just below the socket holder 939. In addition to help the board when burdened by hook extreme heatsink fan that sometimes made the motherboard slightly curved, the plate can also help reduce board temperatures around the processor holder.

On the external panel on the back, in addition to providing standard ports such as a pair of ports PS / 2, each with a parallel and COM ports, audio ports, and RJ-45, you’ll find four USB ports, Firewire, and SPDIF output. For the network, ports are supported by chip utilizing Marvel 88E8001 PCI standard communication lines. SPDIF while it is controlled by the onboard ADI AD1986A 6-channel audio CODEC which are calculated for standard multimedia PC systems today.

To cool the chipset on the job, Asus provides each a heatsink without a fan on the northbridge and southbridge chips. Though a bit hot to the touch, but this passive cooling is sufficient to overcome the heat generated, proved no stability problems or crashes due to excessive temperature effects when we do a test. The surplus, in addition to more save power, use of these passive cooling would minimize the noise level to 0 decibels.

ULI M1575 southbridge chip that is used also to provide sufficient support for the media penyimapanan complete. Call it two IDE connections and four Serial ATA connection. This chip also supports the configuration of RAID 0, 1, 0 +1, 5, and JBOD.

For additional power supply, in addition to providing power connector 4-pin usual, on this motherboard is also Molex connectors that are characteristic of artificial Asus motherboards. For the memory voltage, the available options are also relatively enough to accommodate the wishes of the users who intend to do overclocking. Either start from 2.65v to 3.20v.

Similarly mengustomisasi option for memory performance. For those of you who like to experiment, quite a lot of options available to you play.

From the software side, Asus includes a four fairly useful utility that Asus Update to further facilitate the user when to update the BIOS, MyLogo to personalize the boot display, Cool and Quiet is a complementary feature thermal management and processor performance, as well as PC Probe II for monitoring temperature , voltage, and speed of the processor heatsink fan circles.

Installation and Testing

Here we use the testbed to test the Asus A8R-MVP:

• – AMD Athlon 64 3200 + (Winchester, 2000MHz)
• – Stock Cooling
• – X2 Kingston KVR400X64C25/512
• – GeCube Radeon X800 Mastercard 256MB
• – Asus Radeon X800 256MB (Crossfire Ready)
• – Antec Truepower 2.0 550W
• – Windows XP Professional SP1
• – DirectX 9.0c
• – ATI Catalyst 6.1

In addition, this motherboard test results we compare the test results Asus A8N-SLI which we could test some time ago. Testbed that we use the same as above. The difference is, the A8N-SLI motherboard that time we pasangi Sapphire Radeon X700Pro VGA, and use Enlight 420W power supply. Others same.

As usual, the installation process we go through smoothly without a hitch. Similarly, when we do CrossFire feature activation. There is no problem that we found by chance two graphics cards that we use, either master or slave card using the chip and the same memory capacity

If seen from the results of testing with Sysmark 2002, although the results ujinya good enough, but the performance was slightly below the motherboard Asus A8N-brother who had our SLI testing. Similarly, the results of the tests with PCMark 05. though testbed that we used relatively the same (just different VGA and power supply), the performance of Asus A8R-MVP is still slightly below the A8N-SLI.

ATI Radeon chipsets seem Xpress 200 Crossfire is relatively new is not maximized its performance compared to Nvidia chipsets, nForce 4 SLI is already very mature.

This intel LGA1156 motherboard is usually called one of the black series because all of the capacitors use solid. And also the color of the PCB is usually black. And make the product seems male. Powered by two slot PCIe X16, the product of ECS P55H-A can maximally run int a Crossfire/SLI features so the graphic performance can be added more better than before.

Meanwhile for the memory purpose, ECS P55H-A Motherboard provides 4 slot DDR3 memory which claimed by ECS can run maximal un till2130 clock MHZ by overclocking and 133 MHz by default setting. To protect system this intel motherboard AM3 uses only standard cooling system consist of heatsink in each chipset and the available MOFSET. Unfortunately, you can compare it with dfi lp dk p55 t3eh9 motherboard there is no additional heattipe to remove heat. In the CPU phase power, there is only 4 unit CPU power Phase.

The spesification of ECS P55H-A :

• DMI/BIOS : 2Gb/s / AMI
• DIMM Slots/ RAM MAx : 4 xDDR3 2130/1600/1333/1066
• Expansion Slot : 3x PCIe X16, 2 xPCI . 1 x PCI X1 / 6x USB 2.0, 2 x USB 3.0
• Integrated Audio : Realtek ALC888 8-channel HD AUdio Codec
• Integrated LAN : Realtek 8111DL Gigabit Fast Ethernet MC

In the motherboard performance of ECS P55H-A, look at the total performance score is enough with 97%. But in other sector, the score is less. So this p55/AM3 motherboard can not be compared with Asus P7P55D-E Premium Motherboard.Like in the overclock score only gets 46% because this ECS product has only less phase power unit and without the tools to do overclocking process in onboard or seperately.In the energy saving score get the worst score at 39% with power in 111 Watt. The best think is ECS provides long warranty and the cheap price.
