EPoX NVIDIA nForce5xx, ATI RD580 AM2 motherboards - pics, specs

March 14th 2006 | nForce 500

A few days ago, NVIDIA officially launched the nForce 500 series chipset. Epox has one of the first commercially announced AM2, nforce 5xx motherboards, the MNF55P SLI2. The board uses dual gigabit Ethernet, six SATA 3.0Gbps channels on the southbridge (plus an additional two more from a Jmicron JMB363 chipset. Expect to see the MNF55P on store shelves around late April in anticipation for the AM2 launch.

Epox was also quick to sport the widely acclaimed RD580 chipset from ATI on AMD’s AM2 socket. The MD580 XR-J also offers a full 2×16 configuration for dual graphic card support, but only six total SATA 3.0Gbps channels are included in the package. Multiple graphic adaptors are powered by ATI’s CrossFire support.
