AMD AM2 Motherboard Roundup

September 14th 2006 | Hardware

With promises of 35W Athlon 64 desktop CPUs, RAM speeds of up to 1066MHz and the awesome FX-62, the new socket from AMD should appeal to everyone.

If you’re on a budget, the ECS RS485M-M is a good start. It’s the only board here that doesn’t sport one of NVIDIA’s new Nforce 500-series chipsets, instead plumping for ATi’s Xpress 1100. The rest of the boards use either the high-end Nforce 590 or 570 chipsets:
MSI K9N SLI Platinum
Abit K9N SLI
Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4
Foxconn C51XEM2AA
Asus M2N32-SLI Deluxe
