Foxconn A79A-S?

Motoman · 29th Jul 2008, 09:48 AM

...anybody know when the new Foxconn A79A-S mobo might be available? I am excited about the new southbridge (750) and want to see what the price is for this swank new unit...apparently it's not in the channel yet though.

Checked around and not sure on price but it was supposed to be released before the end of July. I checked the Foxconn site but there "search" function doesn't seem to be working

Here's their page on it:

...if it's in the channel very soon, I am interested in possibly using it for 6 gaming rigs I'm building for a new LAN party gaming center...not if they come out at $200 a board though. If they're $150 or less, I'm all over them - but have a budget to work with.

Newegg.com - Foxconn A79A-S AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard - AMD Motherboards

$230. Ouch. Once other makers start getting product out hopefully some of them will be more affordable.

nice mbo but a little bit high price
i would recomend this Newegg.com - GIGABYTE GA-MA790X-DS4 AM2+/AM2 AMD 790X ATX Ultra Durable II AMD Motherboard - AMD Motherboards

or atleast this one
Newegg.com - MSI K9A2 Platinum AM2+/AM2 AMD 790FX ATX AMD Motherboard - AMD Motherboards

there si no normal 790fx with dual lan under 220$

Hopefully once more manufacturers start including the SB750 as you said Moto, we'll see prices come down some.

For myself thats what I'm waiting on. The fact that so far the 750 seems to give a 200 mhz bump in overclocking because of design is definately a plus.

I agree nice boost but a wee bit pricey

The gigabyte Ga-m750sli-ds4 is a nice board, $130 @ newegg.
