It seems you can use your 6 series card and combine it with the onboard graphics. Therefore a kind of crossfire GPU config.

If so, i'll be buying this board asap

I find my sef getting carried away with all the awesome new tech that arrives onto the shelves but as i'm not an OC'er I should really not get involved lol

I'm not going to tweak voltages etc i'm one of those who want to use the product as it comes, unless there is a button to auto-overclock of course, i'll do that

I was going to buy the MSI frozen board but that was ages ago now!

Anyone else interested in these new boards from gigabyte? I wonder what MSI and ASUS will bring to the market in that price range i.e. £90-£115 price point

It's the same as the z68 boards and the Lucid Virtu, the IGP in the in the new AMD chips are much better than the ones in the SB ones though and it would be a good cheap dual graphics solution.

Yeh tbh i'll be happy enough with a board like this. The ROG IV and 1090T was going to be my new build but i've not been able to get one and BD will be out soon.

Looks like i'll have to sell my 965BE and hope I can afford one of the BD'z as they are the only chip you can use with the board.

hmmm

a75 board are more for low end APUs from AMD....equivalent to i3s from intel....but they are better then the i3's (did i just contradict....nvm lol) the best for a budget gaming build considering the price of the apu is only 139.99 here in the US not to mention if the dual gpu thing works nice the apu+lower-midrange gpu might perform well
