For dual and quad-core processors
One of the most affordable motherboards for the AMD FM2+ platform that is compatible with Kaveri and Godavari processors (for example, the A8-7600 is the MSI A68HM-E33 V2.
Everything for the upgrade
The motherboard has only two DIMM DDR3 RAM slots, but there are as many as three PCI slots. The first is PCI-E 3.0 x16 for connecting a graphics card, the second is PCI-E x1 for modern network and sound cards, and the third is old-school PCI for outdated models of the same cards.
Video outputs, audio and network available
However, the motherboard has quite good integrated Ethernet and HD Audio controllers. The video signal, in the case of using integrated graphics, can be output both through the analogue VGA port and through digital HDMI.
Fast disks and flash drives
Disk drives are connected to high-speed SATA 6 Gbps connectors, and USB flash drives and other external devices are connected to equally fast USB 3.0 ports. In addition, exclusively solid capacitors are used in the design of the motherboard, which guarantees a long and uninterrupted operation of the entire system.
