ASRock 890FX Deluxe3 Motherboard

"AMD 890FX is the new high-end chipset for AMD processors and ASRock 890FX Deluxe3 is a mainstream motherboard based on this new chipset, bringing nice features like three PCI Express x16 slots, eight SATA-600 ports, four USB 3.0 ports, solid capacitors, core unlocking utility and more. Check it out. This new high-end chipset is a two-chip solution. The main feature of the north bridge chip is the presence of 42 PCI Express x1 lanes - almost the double the amount present on AMD 890GX chipset (22 lanes) - which allows a very high-end configuration for the expansion slots as we will explain on the next page. The south bridge chip used is SB850, the same one used on AMD 890GX chipset. The main feature of this chip is the native support for six SATA-600 (a.k.a. "SATA 6G") ports, so the motherboard doesn't need an external chip to support this feature, and certainly AMD 890FX and 890GX will help the new SATA standard to become mainstream."
