One of the biggest motherboard vendors, MSI, has launched their first AMD FM2+ GAMING motherboards A88X-G45 GAMING and A88XM GAMING. With Kaveri performing like it does hopefully some other vendors *cough* Asus ROG *cough* step up and release some as well! AMD hasn’t really seen any high end boards since the Asus Crosshair V Formula-Z released several years ago. The A88X-G45 is an ATX version and includes Assassins Creed Liberation HD while the A88XM is the mATX version. They both feature the now classic MSI red dragon on their heatsinks. Considering that Kaveri is mostly in the market for people who aren’t buying an external GPU I’d sure love to see more FM2+ mITX boards be released!
