“Last week we examined the ATI Radeon HD 4250 integrated
graphics performance found with the AMD 880G chipset introduced a
few months back. We found the performance of the 880G IGP to be not
that different from the higher-end AMD 890GX chipset when using the
proprietary Catalyst driver, but today we are looking more at the
880G chipset along with the 890FX chipset as we review the ASRock
880G Extreme3 and ASRock 890FX Deluxe3, respectively. Both low-cost
motherboards offer USB 3.0, SATA 3.0, and eSATA3 connectivity, and
Turbo UCC overclocking, among other features.“880G Extreme3 Features:
“CPU
– Support for Socket AM3 processors: AMD Phenom II X6 / X4 / X3 /
X2 (except 920 / 940) / Athlon II X4 / X3 / X2 / Sempron
processors
– Six-Core CPU Ready
– Supports UCC feature (Unlock CPU Core)
– Advanced V8 + 2 Power Phase Design”
