Motherboard ASUS - quality, time-tested
The ASUS motherboard is a symbol of quality andreliability, which are checked by time. Due to these indicators, this Taiwanese producer enjoys high popularity among computer specialists. The products that are produced under this brand are distinguished by their excellent functionality, rich equipment and extended service life.
The main link of all moderncomputers is the motherboard (sometimes it is also called the system board). Structurally, it represents an item of increased complexity. The latest versions of this product are made in 4 layers.
ASUS manufactures computer components inincluding motherboards, mainly for x86 architecture. Products for this hardware platform can be divided into two types, depending on the manufacturer of the processors, that is, Intel or AMD. In the first case, this product is oriented to serious and highly specialized tasks, therefore its cost is higher than usual. The second kind of products is oriented to domestic needs and is characterized by a lower price.
Motherboard ASUS, made for processorsIntel, can have the following connectors: 1150, 1155 and 2011. These numbers mean the number of contacts for connecting the processor and correspond to the number of legs of the chip that is installed in the connector of the motherboard. The highest performance devices with connector 2011 (there is the possibility of installing processors with 8 cores and 4-channel memory controller, which can significantly increase the productivity of the entire system). As examples of such a group of devices, as the ASUS 2011 motherboard, you can cite Rampage IV GENE and SABERTOOTH X79. Both devices are built on a set of system logic X79 (chips installed on the motherboard), have excellent design, high quality and excessive performance. The other two sockets have almost the same performance. The only difference is that the 1150 is newer and comes with a more powerful video core. An example of this performance is the SABERTOOTH Z87 and Maximus VI Extreme devices (based on the most modern chipset - Z87 - for this platform). In turn, connector 1155 is older by computer standards and is equipped with a weaker graphics accelerator. The most popular solutions for such a platform are Maximus V GENE and SABERTOOTH Z77.
The ASUS motherboard, manufactured forAMD's products, there can only be two kinds - AM3 + and FM2. The first option is maximum performance, based on the technical solutions of this manufacturer of microprocessors. Examples of such motherboards are SABERTOOTH 990FX. High reliability of its work is provided by solid-state capacitors, which have an extended service life in comparison with electrolytic ones. The socket FM2 has a low level of performance and is well suited for entry-level systems, as well as multimedia stations. An example of such a motherboard is F2A55-M LK2 PLUS.
Leading positions in the computer industry marketTaiwanese company ASUS. The motherboard of this manufacturer is a device that perfectly combines high reliability and excellent performance. If uncompromising performance is required, then it's better to choose products of the series 2011. Lower cost and less computing resources for 1150, 1155 and AM3 + devices. For an entry-level computer, FM2 is ideal. Also such components will fit well into the multimedia station.
