Today we are using an unnamed board which is currently under NDA for out tests based around the AMD 790GX chipset, so we haven't provided any pictures of the board.
We used this board as AMD is pushing the 790GX chipset for its mainstream users. Today we have the Phenom X4, X3, Core 2 Duo and Core 2 Extreme offerings on the table to see just how well the Athlon 7750 Black Edition can handle itself.
