ECS Elitegroup A785GM-M Video Review, Part 1: Unboxing

[Cience4thewin]

hello , do you think that an ECS A785GM-A would be compatible with a phenom x6 1090t with just an updated bios?

[bomberpage]

@Cience4thewin The latest bios revision on ECS's website does support the Phenom II X6 1090T.

ok good, but yeah man keep up the vids and sooner or later ima start to put up videos with my new gaming pc haha

[bomberpage]

Will look forward to checking em out;)

[jacklental]

ohh ok and does the am3 athlon x3 435 2.9 ghz??? cus on the box of the mobo it says sockets am3 for amd phenom II processors

[bomberpage]

If you are asking will it work with the motherboard, the answer is yes, it will.

Also, as far as PSU's, a short list of ones i recommend on a budget:

Xclio Stablepower 500W

Xclio Greatpower 500W/550W

Recertified OCZ GameXStream 600W/700W (google silicon valley compucycle)

Corsair 400W

OCZ Modxstream Pro 500W

Antec Earthwatts EA500

Season SS-500ES

Also, if anyone is interested in joing our websit, the redirect has been fixed and should now take you to the correct page. Keep in mind website is currently under construction/

[jacklental]

well right now i have a 500 watt psu that came with my case...should i upgrade??

[bomberpage]

I wouldnt even run my rig on a case psu. A quality 500W would more than easily run your rig, but the units that come in a case are far from quality, barring a few cases(such as antec)

[jacklental]

well along with this mother board im going to put a athlon x3 435, 2.9 ghz and 4gb of ddr3 gaming ram... and im going to get a new graphics card in a month or two cus the integrated one is really good

[bomberpage]

Onboard is pretty decent considering its onboard, if you think its good though, a midrange card like the 5750/5770 would blow you away. You have similar specs to the rig i built my dad, except i used a 425, and 1600mhz Adata memory, and a 700W GameXStream PSU i had laying around. What power supply you get for your rig?

[jacklental]

hey man i just bought this board today and i love it and its a really good motherboard for the price. i'm building my first gaming computer with this motherboard.

[bomberpage]

Cool, what all parts gonna be going along with it? I personally picked this board up to put together a rig for my dad .

Also, a note to the video: When I picked this board up at newegg it was $74.99, and then $20 MIR so its gonna be $54.99. The price has since increased to $94.99, but even then its a great board for the price.
