6150K8MA-8EKRS is the mATX solution targetting multimedia PCs. Small in form
factor but big in functions. 6150K8MA-8EKRS is based on the new GF6150
integrated chipset. The Northbridge:
nVidia GeForce 6150 and Southbridge: nVidia nForce 430 MCP.
(There are various combinations of NB_SB pairs, a comparison of them and
supported features can be found
here). This Socket 939
board supports up to 4GB DDR400 memory in dual channel mode and the Socket 939 processors including the
AMD Athlon 64/FX/X2. It is capable of HT of 1GHz and
AMD Cool 'n' Quiet Technology. It supports an external
PCie x16 graphics card and comes built in with a PureVide-CE quality video
processor to acclerate WMVHD video playback.
There are also 2 ATA/133 + 4 ports of Serial ATA
II 3.0Gb/s, RAID 0, 1, 0+1, 5s. Audio wise
it has 7.1 Realtek audio codec. There is a GbE
controller using a Marvell PHY.
The board also uses Texas Instrument 1394a controller. It also can support up to
8 USB 2.0 ports, 4 in rear I/O and 4 more via headers on board using brackets.
There is a also TV-out via cable/bracket.
Although this is
a mATX board, WinFast has incorporated adjustable
bus speeds, Adjustable memory timing
and Adjustable voltages
for Vcore and Vdimm. Considering it a matx board, it can o/c pretty well. Check
out the rest of the review to find out more.
