The motherboard is the foundation upon which your PC is built the main elements that make up the motherboard are the CPU or the processor, the socket for the motherboard, bus speed, chipset, system memory, bus speed, peripherals like printer, keyboard, mouse etc and you must get the motherboard which is compatible for supporting all the components well. Here is a list of top five motherboard available in the market.
1) XFX nForce 790i Ultra: It is nVidia’s flagship board with new north bridge which brings real PCI-E 2.0 boasting 32-lanes of bandwidth, a new memory controller that now has support for 1600MHz FSB, 1333MHz DDR3 and EPP. XFX 790i Ultra comes with three PCI Express x16 slots that support SLI, 3-way SLI and Quad SLI. This board is the board is ESA compliant making it easy to get all sorts of detailed data on your system when ESA components are used.
2) GA-MA790GP-DS4H: The GA-MA790GP-DS4H is GIGABYTE’s next generation, high performance platform based on the new AMD 790GX Chipset and support for the new AMD Phenom™ quad-core processors, with the latest AM2+ platform support, integrated DDR2 1066 memory controller, HyperTransport™ 3.0 technology links.
The GA-MA790GP-DS4H is an unusual board in that it works both as an enthusiast overclocking platform and a meek desktop platform. The board has extensive support for overclocking but includes features like an integrated HD3300 GPU and SidePort connected GPU memory to enable HD video playback.
3) Asus M3N72-D: M3N72-D is based on NVIDIA nForce 750a SLI, which is compatible with DirectX 10 Shader Model 4.0 integrated graphics kernel and implemented advanced technology NVIDIA Hybrid SLI (GeForce Boost regimes and Hybrid Power).
It features dual-channel DDR2 1066 memory support and accelerates data transfer rate up to 5200MT/s via HyperTransport 3.0 based system bus.This motherboard supports AMD Socket AM2 Athlon/Sempron processors. It features 2000/1600 MT/s HyperTransport-based system bus, dual-channel un-buffered DDR2 800 memory support, and AMD Cool ‘n’ Quiet technology.
The new design spacing makes it so much easier to install cards in SLI. The only dislike about the board is the SATA box angle. it is facing out instead of up making it a pain in the rump to attach your drive cable.
4) Asus M4A79 Deluxe: The M4A79 Deluxe is based on the existing AMD 790FX chipset and supports DDR2 memory. It is an AM2+ board that will accept the new socket AM3 processors, but the board itself is Socket AM2+. Socket AM3 will have DDR3 memory and WILL NOT be compatible with Phenom, Athlon 64 X2, or any other Socket AM2 or AM2+ CPU’s.
M4A79 has a more intricate cooling system, four PCI-Express x16 slots for CrossFireX setups and one eSATA and five SATA 3.0 Gbps ports. This board comes with 7.1 channel audio, Gigabit Ethernet, an 8+2 phase power design, Power, Reset buttons, and the Express Gate feature which provides a quick-booting Linux environment for use and abuse.
5) ASUS M3A78-EM: This motherboard features a variety of detailed expert setup options that aid in overclocking and performance-tweaking. The board is based on the AMD 780G and ATI SB700 chipsets, which have been around long enough to be very stable, well-supported performers. One of the benefits of this Asus motherboard is its onboard, ATI, HD3200 Graphics Controller which performs fast enough that you can get by without needing to pay extra for a good PCI Express Graphics Card. Express Gateway is a feature which access a hidden, built-in operating system of the motherboard which can turn your computer on and be online in about 5 seconds.
