Everything in our PC is changing fast and that includes our motherboards, and with the list that we have provided here I do have the urge to upgrade my PC.
I am just hoping by doing so, the upgrade will not cost me too much as powerful as some of the listed can be!
Here are the new pc motherboards that are due out this year:
BIOSTAR’s TA970 Plus AMD Mainboard
Just recently, BIOSTAR released an AMD socket AM3+ motherboard that is the TA970 Plus. While you might know that AMD sockets usually have an AMD OverDrive Technology on their mainboard, the TA970 Plus is also said to have the ACC (Advanced Clock Calibration) feature for overclock enthusiasts out there to precisely calibrate clock timings between processor and RAM chips.
The board supports AMD multi-Core AM3 processors and fortunately, it includes AMD FX/AMD Phenom II and AMD Athlon II
;versions to its support. It is a full sized ATX board with 4 slots of DDR3 DIMM up to 64 GB and is crossfire capable. This new motherboard also supports USB 3.0 and is said to have a SATA connection with a speed of 6 GB/s. While the price is yet unknown, it has been rumoured to probably go up to $79.00.
ASRock’s X99E-ITX/ac
If you experienced the power of an X99 motherboard, you probably already know that it is a powerful motherboard. And just a few days ago, this powerful board is now coming in a Mini-ITX. Ridiculous it may be but yes, it was made possible by sacrificing some of its specs.
While the previous model was capable of holding eight DDR4 memory, this one has less. Same goes with our PCI-Express 3.0 x16 slot. It also said that there will be six SATA3 connectors and two of them can be made into a single SATA-Express connector. You might also want to know that this board is now USB3.1 capable and has a wireless AC connectivity.
While the price is yet to be determined after this week’s CeBIT, we also hope to gain the exact specifications of this announced motherboard.
MSI’s New And Updated Motherboards
If you are not a fan of BIOSTAR or ASRock, then MSI just announced twelve upcoming motherboards, all featuring USB 3.1 and is rated to be at full 10GBps in speed. Ten out of the twelve motherboards are said to support Intel, while two are for AMD. Also, while most use the traditional USB Type-A connector, a single exception features the new reversible Type-C connector on the rear I/O panel, the MSI Z9&A Gaming 6.
Here are the said chipsets that are coming out:
