ASUS M3N78 Pro Motherboard Review

@ 2008/10/10
ASUS tends to make high quality motherboards that are popular with a wide variety of hardcore enthusiasts and the ASUS M3N78 Pro has the features to contend with the best of the AMD chipsets available. The integrated graphics on the M3N78 Pro are not up to par with the ATI 790GX motherboards, but on the other hand run a wee bit cooler, can save more energy with HybridPower and are sufficient to run H.264 content. Overclocking features are adequate, but this board is really not for the hardcore gamer or enthusiast buyer.As a HTPC motherboard this is great as the onboard video has HDMI and has the ability to run 7.1 surround- sound through the HDMI port. NVIDIA really needs to launch a faster integrated graphics processor if they intend to compete with ATI on pure performance comparisons.
