ECS A890GXM-A AM3 Motherboard Review - Motherboards 65

Our Cinebench 11.5 results showed steady performance bumps using the A890GXM-A over the other 790GX/FX chipsets used with the other motherboards in this benchmark. Cinebench is highly CPU intensive, but the ECS board seemed to pull away in both single-threaded and multi-threaded benchmarking.
