The chance of the customer, who favors discrete graphics configurations, and whom we have mentioned in the introduction, being interested in such a system board is all the more small.
Non-standard settings were not tested for operability.

This test also assesses the board's ability to automatically revert to correct frequencies in the case of system hang-ups, excessive overclocking, etc. Only the effectiveness of the automatic clock rate restore function deserves a positive mark.
Consumed Power, Energy Consumption: It is important to realize that overclocking performance varies by motherboard and is, to some extent, an individual characteristic of each specific unit. Video 3Digests Video cards: He doesn't want to pay more for the options that he doesn't intend to use, but he does want to be able to install all the peripherals that he has accumulated and that require formally obsolete ports and connectors. The board's layout stands out because of its spacious distribution of expansion slots.
For this reason, it is impossible for us, and any other review, to determine the overclocking potential of any board with megahertz precision. Time will tell, but for now let us return to our modest task of examining a board with almost the least functionality of any one available on the market, which nevertheless falls into the ATX form factor category.

In addition to that, there are two SATA ports, a TPM module socket and some extra rarely used ports, which were intended, perhaps, for a more expensive version based on the chipset without the LE suffix. In case of our modules with characteristics surpassing the DDR standard requirements this value has turned out to be one grade less - MHz.
In such a case, of course, the supplier is free to have his opinion about the decision-makers, but doesn't necessarily have a right to argue with them. Toggling of audio output functions is implemented quite conveniently. In any case, even large system integration companies sometimes have to assemble a batch of computers that have to comply with modest office-duty requirements and nfore6m-a an outboard graphics card under minimal budget.
BioShock Infinite and Metro: The performance drop that we have observed is quite significant and, more importantly, absolutely unjustified.
However, there is no guarantee that the board won't choose an even lower value for some strange reason for certain expensive high-quality DDR modules.

In the above circumstances preferring a graphics card might be a deliberate choice of those, who have been making do with integrated graphics support in Windows XP. Taking that fact and the values obtained in frequency response test into account we, probably, wouldn't recommend this board's audio support to those who are interested in high quality sound.
It is clear that rear panel's space wasn't used in a rational way. On one hand, the set of peripheral ports, BIOS settings etc. Perhaps, it may even lower the bottom limit of system board prices in general, which in return may become an additional small incentive for buying configurations with inexpensive graphics cards.
As we have mentioned earlier, heat emission of the modern single-bridge NVIDIA chipsets is relatively low, therefore, making active cooling an exception to the rule. They may justly fear that integrated graphics might not provide as clear a picture via analog output, as a discrete graphics card would.
As we all know, space should be conserved in office conditions and in general too.
Write a comment below. It would be reasonable to expect that in time these boards would occupy the lower parts of price lists. The evs manufacturers have adopted these chipsets specifically in order to add ultra-light nforfe6m-a to their series of boards. However, having looked into the details and having heard the board's audio output we find nothing terrible in the way it actually sounds.
However, there wouldn't be anything wrong with using it for "office" needs. However, if lowering Hyper-Transport frequency, for example, doesn't improve overclocking performance, the default multiplier is used instead.
