Where are the AM4 motherboards ?
Well, according to my calendar October is gone. No AM4 boards at any retail sites. I was wanting to try Bristol Ridge until Zen comes out.
If they keep delaying the boards that won't be an...
From the digitimes article,
"The high-end X370 chipsets will be launched at CES 2017, while mainstream B350 and low-end A320 will be unveiled later. X370-based motherboards will begin shipments in...
If the X370 motherboards will be available in Dec, and the budget chips available later, does this mean NO am4 boards and no Bristol Ridge chips to tide us over till Zen?
This is a change from...
I'm not so sure. If you listen to the talk he mentions that there will be improvements to the 6300 Opterons. One thing that was never fixed with the PileDriver core was the cache latency. That would...
Potentially bad news about am3+ steamroller
Techreport has a link to a new AMD desktop roadmap that does not seem to offer good news for am3+
http://techreport.com/news/25658/amd-fx-family-wont-get-a-steamroller-update-next-year
...
The article says "AMD's FM1 and AM3 sockets will start phasing out in mid-2013 and the end of 2013, respectively. By the end of 2013, Socket AM3+ processors will account for 30% of AMD's total...
You are right about DFI. Their matx boards were minature versions of their atx boards, and not just cut down versions like other manufacters, I hope one day DFI will decide to renter the market....
This is about the best you can get for a new mobo. The only alternative is a used asus M5A88-M, which has the 880G/850 combo, supports up to 140W cpu,.
What I don't understand is why there are so...
Another question is if a socket am3+ version will be produced (no graphics). I can't imagine the server socket having the built in graphics. Maybe the enthusiast line will be merged with it.
...
I would try removing the northbridge and southbridge heatsinks, cleaning them and reapplying thermal paste. I ususally do this with any new board, and I also do it about once a year. I have bought...
This is strange. If you look at the M5A88-M page on the ASUS site, and click on the supported cpu's link, you will find both FX-8350, FX-8320, and FX-6300 officially supported on this 880G/SB850...
I recall one of the AMD executives (i can't find the quote anymore) making a statement during an interview and saying something to the effect that the "piledriver core of 2013 will not be the same...
I wonder when the 95 watt FX-8320's will be available?
The Gigabyte GA-880GM-USB3 is the one I am most familiar. From version 1.1, it jumped to 3.1, and the socket changed to AM3+ (from AM3) and lost the ide ports. It you read the newegg reviews, some...
I would much rather see a the realtek nic replaced by a intel or broadcom nic and/or newer DRMOS stye mosfets instead of thunderbolt capability for revision 2.
Gigabyte will have revisions...
Me too. It sounds like the quality of voltage regulation, etc. isn't up to par. This would explain why one "good" chip works fine, but others with slightly higher voltage/current requirements will...
Does you have info on the rumored new chipsets (1090, 1070 and new southbridge) and their release date?
I have noticed a lot of dropping prices on am3+ boards with many models being deactivated at...
Hmm,
I have noticed a lot of manufacturer "refurbished" am3+ boards showing up on various sites that seem to be the complete box and accessories. I also noticed prices starting to drop after many...
Unregistered ECC support in bios for 9xx Gigabyte boards?
Hi,
Does anyone know if the 970a-ud3 or 970-d3 boards will support unregistered /unbuffered ECC ram in the bios? I know some of the higher end boards (990fx) will support it, but I am not sure if...
The woods are full of them .... Get your gun...:)
I am waiting for the 95w fx-8200 to show up in quantities.
...
Perhaps you mean 1090FX and 1070 ?
I think the OP may be referring to the 1090FX and 1070 chipsets:

I would imagine they would show...
Does anyone know when the FX 8120 95W cpu's will show up in retail? Of course at this point it might be better to wait until the new B3 revision starts to appear as well.
unbuffered ECC support?
Do any of the new Gigabyte AM3+ boards have ECC ram support in the bios? (i.e. under
DRAM Configuration" there should be an entry "DRAM ECC enable = Turn on ECC" )
I would especially be...
Why not just offer a coupon???
I wish Intel and AMD would not include a cooler (at least for high end cpus) and just include a $10 coupon for the heatsink of your choice. I sure the third party manufacturers would jump onboard...
