@ 2011/02/02IF THERE WAS any doubt that AMD's Brazos platform was going to become popular with the board partners or not, then the news that AMD has at least eight retail motherboard partners with a current total of 18 board designs on the way, should put that doubt to rest. The interesting thing here is that we're just talking motherboard design wins here, it doesn't include various small form factor barebone and system design wins.
Computerbase has gotten their hands on a slide from an AMD presentation revealing how many solutions each of AMD’s board partners are working on. As such we’re looking at four boards each from Asus and Gigabyte, although Asus will offer two mini ITX as well as two mATX boards whereas Gigabyte will offer four different mini ITX models. MSI will have a mATX board as well as two mini ITX models. Biostar and ASRock are both working on two unknown models and ECS, Foxconn and Sapphire will each offer a mini ITX model.
