<p>Lost amidst the headlines surrounding the launch of AMD's 6-core Phenom II&nbsp;X6 desktop processors was the simultaneous introduction of AMD's updated enthusiast chipset, the AMD&nbsp;890FX. While review sites naturally dedicated some time to it (we gave it <a target="_blank" href="/view/26512">a page</a> here), there wasn't time to examine the various 890FX boards in-depth. The fact that the AMD&nbsp;890FX&nbsp;is mostly similar to its predecessor, with the exception of a new Southbridge, meant that there was even less of a story for the press. After all, the new SB850 may bring SATA&nbsp;6Gbps support, but for most users still using older SATA&nbsp;3Gbps hard drives, the newer interface is unlikely to bring immediate benefits.&nbsp;</p>
<p>In any case, we have already tested the AMD&nbsp;Phenom II&nbsp;X6 and its Turbo Core technology to our hearts' content. This brings us finally to the high-end enthusiast AMD&nbsp;890FX&nbsp;motherboards that vendors hope you purchase along with a brand-new 6-core processor. And maybe a couple or even a quartet of AMD&nbsp;Radeon HD&nbsp;5800 graphics cards for quad CrossFireX if you are at it.</p>
<p>Don't be surprised if we tell you that some of these motherboards cost as much or almost as much as a Phenom II&nbsp;X6, for among them are premium models from top brands like ASUS, Biostar, Gigabyte and MSI. Although we've gathered the top boards from each maker in this round-up, the Biostar board is the most affordable 890FX motherboard in our mix and should make for an interesting comparison.</p>
<p>An interesting trend that we noticed for these four boards is that while AMD&nbsp;has removed the Advanced Clock Calibration feature that was used by enthusiasts to unlock the 'disabled or hidden' cores on certain AMD&nbsp;processors, the motherboard vendors have stepped up and introduced their own unlocking features. All four boards have their form of 'core unlocking' and one can even go to the extent of turning certain cores on/off if you choose to.</p>
<p>The 'unlock' is as simple as enabling a setting in the BIOS, which is certainly an improvement over the past, where one has to scour forums online to find the right model and the correct BIOS&nbsp;version to unlock an AMD&nbsp;processor, as we documented <a target="_blank" href="/view/2315">here</a>. Before we examine the merits of these boards in the next few pages, the specifications are listed below. As we have previewed three of these boards, <a target="_blank" href="/view/23177">ASUS</a>, <a target="_blank" href="/view/15300">Gigabyte</a> and <a target="_blank" href="/view/25976/">MSI</a>, we will be using some of the content and images from those previews.&nbsp;</p>
