Gigabyte GA-F2A85X-UP4 FM2 Motherboard Review: Overkill for Trinity?
Results: SiSoft Sandra 2013
I run the CPU benchmarks to make sure there are no glaring issues between the different boards when running the same processor. We check the memory streaming performance to gauge how mature or performance oriented the BIOS is. Finally we take a look at the file system results from both the native SATA 6G controller and the native USB 3.0 unit.
The results are pretty similar between the two boards, and this is a good thing. The Asus board is a little faster in terms of main memory, but the Gigabyte board is a bit faster when it comes to the file tests on the SATA 6G controller. With the built-in USB controller of the A85X we see the two boards exchanging blows.

Nice board for FM2. One of the best I have seen. Good job Gigabyte. No AMD you need to make a monster chip for the FM2 socket. Maybe drop the Gpu part and pack more cores. a 6 core fm2 would be sweet
I think a Matx version with similar features and a slightly lower price tag would have made more sense.
Full Atx for an apu is hard to understand.
But I do like it overall, just too bad Trinity really can't take advantage of anything in the OC department.
nice board, hopefully it will work with kaveri.
Looks like a good and solid motherboard but i lean more towards Asus plus if you get the F2A85-V PRO FM2 AMD A85X you also receive a bonus Razer Kraken pro headset ! id say thats a sweet deal :)http://event.asus.com/au/2013/FM2/
This is what I plan on using on my next build. Love Gigabyte...

No numbers? That makes this a sort of "general opinion" review?
Kind of like.. well...I like this one sort of better than that one?
Very strange.
I "kind of" wish I had the 5 minutes back.
I see multiple benchmark pages in the review... are you not seeing them?
