ge4fsidnview when its compared to
previous RS690 chipset based motherboards, being
the first IGP which supports DirectX 10 and
Shader Model 4.0, the great performance increase
of the integrated graphics core, the powerful
Unified Video Decoder for HD Video, the HDMI
connector, and the support for HDCP, have made
this board be the best choice for HTPC
Best Buy Award ComputerDIY (Taiwan), March 1st,

shows us ECSs efforts in providing not only a
product with great price/performance ration, but
also a product with good quality and nice
overclocking capability

ticle.asp?id6363 besides the great support
for HD video decoding, featuring Hybrid Graphics
Technology is obviously an additional benefit for
users. With the great price/performance ration,
there is no concern for those certain users who
might have a bit budget limitation. This is
definitely the best offering for users who are
looking for a board that is helpful to HD video
decoding
Best Value Award OCWorkbench (Singapore), April

GM-A/g1.htm ECS has put up a good challenge
to the other players with this ECS A780GM-AFor
those who intend to build a HTPC, a full fledge
board might be a bit big for a small box. On the
other hand, the chipset gives you a cheaper
alternative over the 790X as this full board has
3 PCI slots and 2 PCIe x1 slot for future
expansion use.

or/520/1 The ECS "Black Series" A780GM-A
mainboard is a good example of what the 780G
chipset can do for you when properly implemented.
It comes in an aesthetically pleasing way, easy
to use BIOS and at a very fair price. I'm
seriously considering building a Full HD HTPC out
of the platform we showed you todayThis week
we'll receive a AMD revision B3 Phenom processor,
I can't wait to see how well it will perform on
that. So yeah, I'm impressed by this mainboard,
and I don't say that very often, especially in
this price range

itemecs_a780gmnum1 While the AMD 790FX
Chipset is the big brother to the 780G, the ECS
A780GM-A v1.0 was able to stand its ground
against the flagship Gigabyte MA790FX-DS5 in the
tests we had conducted...The layout of this
motherboard is fine by our standards and
shouldn't pose any problem whether it's used for
an HTPC/media setup or a mainstream gaming PC.
