ABIT: AMD Motherboards
Equipped with ATI's brand-new XPress3200 chipset, the
AT8 32X is the right choice for Crossfire.
- AMD Socket 939, ATI Xpress3200 RD580
- 4x DDR DIMM
- 2x PCI-E x16, 2x PCI-E x1, 2x PCI
- 6x SATA, 2x UDMA
- 1x GigE
- 8x USB 2.0, 2x Firewire
- ATI Crossfire Certification
The SLI counterpart of the AT8 32X is the
AN8 32X- AMD Socket 939, NVIDIA nForce4 SLI x16
- 4x DDR DIMM
- 2x PCI-E x16, 2x PCI-E x1, 2x PCI
- 6x SATA, 2x UDMA
- 1x GigE
- 10x USB 2.0, 2x Firewire
- NVIDIA SLI Certification
Ready for AMD AM2 is the
AN9 32X Fatal1ty.
- AMD Socket AM2, NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI MCP
- 4x DDR2 DIMM
- 2x PCI-E x16, 2x PCI-E x1, 1x PCI
- 6x SATA, 1x UDMA
- 2x GigE
- 10x USB 2.0, 2x Firewire
A bit more on the budget side but still using AM2 is the
KN9 SLI which supports only x8/x8 when in SLI.
- AMD Socket AM2, NVIDIA nForce 570 SLI MCP
- 4x DDR2 DIMM
- 2x PCI-E x16 (x8/x8 SLI), 2x PCI-E x1, 2x PCI
- 6x SATA, 1x UDMA
- 2x GigE
- 10x USB 2.0, 2x Firewire
If you want the NVIDIA 6100 chipset which has integrated VGA, the
NF95 might be a good choice.
- AMD Socket 939, NVIDIA nForce 6100 MCP
- 2x DDR DIMM
- Integrated nForce 6100 VGA
- 1x PCI-E x16, 3x PCI
- 2x SATA, 2x UDMA
- 1x GigE
- 10x USB 2.0
I am really looking forward to the
UL8 Pro it uses the ULI M1697 chipset which became famous on the ASRock 939DualSATA.
- AMD Socket 939, ULI M1697
- 4x DDR DIMM
- 1x PCI-E x16, 3x PCI-E x1, 2x PCI
- 4x SATA, 2x UDMA
- 1x GigE
- 8x USB 2.0
