ECS motherboard wins Computex “Best Choice” award

ECS motherboard wins Computex “Best Choice” award

Today ECS announced that their A890GXM-AU motherboard has won a “Best Choice” award for Computex 2010. The AMD 890 chipset is at the heart of this little marvel, and the killer app is ECS’ “4most Display” feature—four different video outputs all onboard for a high degree of flexibility in choosing your display device. The motherboard has on-board DVI, D-Sub, HDMI and DisplayPort connectors.

Computex is Taiwan’s premiere annual technology conference, with thousands of attendees yearly.

    ardichoke Seriously? ECS? Have they improved their products lately because the last time I used an ECS board they were the el-cheapo, crap hardware brand.

    primesuspect We have two ECS motherboards on our testbench at ICHQ, and I will say this: They have come a long, long way since their days of being a super-budget motherboard choice.

    Short answer: yes, they've improved their products lately.

    ardichoke Good to know. I had always avoided them since the last ECS board and all the problems I had with it. I'll keep in mind they've improved since then.

    djmeph It has all those connectors, but how many can you run at one time? I was reading the article earlier (can't seem to find it right now) that some new technology is coming out that will make it easier to run more than two monitors. I've never attempted to run three monitors, but I would have never guessed that it would be such a chore.

    I agree. I have several boards in use right now. I'm also glad they've finished their website upgrade. I think it took them several months just to get the download section working again. But here in Manila, people only buy from 4 brands, Gigabyte, Asus, MSI & Asrock. I rarely see people buy ECS.

Howdy, Stranger!
