Introdução
Analisamos mais uma vez uma motherboard da ASRock, desta feita a mais recente placa com socket FM1 desta marca, baseada no chipset Hudson-D3 A75 da AMD, sendo o northbridge completamente transferido para o APU. A série Llano para desktop é a jóia da coroa no calendário para mainstream da AMD.
Os principais argumentos da plataforma Lynx são as 6 portas SATA 6Gbps nativas e as 4 portas USB 3.0 também nativas, trás também outro ponto interessante que é o CrossfireX híbrido entre qualquer placa gráfica da série 6 e o APU.
O Socket FM1 é alimentado por uma fase VRM-10, é ligado a quatro slots DDR3 DIMM para dual-channel da memória DDR3-1866 MHz, e de dois dos três slots PCI-Express 2.0 x16. Os dois primeiros slots são PCI-E x16 que mudam para PCI-E x8 quando ambos são utilizadas. O terceiro slot é x4, ligado ao chipset os outros slots são 1 PCI-E x1 e 3 PCI.
À primeira vista reparámos que a qualidade de construção se mantém a um nível muito apreciável, a retenção do cooler é igual aos Socket AM2 e AM3 e também que os coolers acopulados à motherboard dos mosfets e do chipset, são de tamanho reduzido o que deixa prever que é bastante fresca.
