Full specs and details are up


With the launch still some one month away, it seems like a lot of the motherboard manufacturers are still more than happy to put up information about their AMD 780G boards already.

To be fair, the chipset has already launched in China, but AMD wanted to tweak the Hybrid CrossFire drivers before launching this chipset in the rest of the world.

We already told you about Gigabyte's board here and even provided a picture for your viewing pleasure, but now you can check out the official specifications and picture on Gigabyte's website.

One interesting piece of information is that Gigabyte claims 1,500 points on 3DMark 06 from the onboard Radeon 3200 graphics when the board is paired up with a Phenom 9600, 2GB of DDR2 800MHz memory and Vista 32-bit.

Even more peculiar is this statement "Please use ATI Hybrid Graphics technology certified VGA card (i.e., ATI Radeon HD 2400, 3450 chipset)". Hopefully this doesn't mean that Hybrid CrossFire is limited only to the entry level graphics cards from ATI, but time will tell.
