All of them use the Z77 chipset and have support for LGA 1150 CPUs

Like Biostar, Gigabyte and ASRock, Micro-Star International has completed some motherboards ready to welcome a certain CPU series that Intel won't launch until summer.

And we don't just mean the Z87A that we talked about right over here.

We are talking about three Z77-powered platforms that share the brand name of the N660Ti PE graphics card.

That's right, the Z77A-GD65, Z77A-G43, and Z77A-G45 motherboards all bear the “Gaming Series” brand.

We could go off on a tangent about the PCI slots, the memory support, storage and connectivity capabilities, etc.

We won't though, because they are more or less along the same lines as the motherboards from the other companies.

What we will specify instead are the special perks: VRM heatsinks with dragon-shaped fins, themes PCH heatsinks, Killer E2200 low-latency network interfaces, Creative Sound Blaster Cinema audio, and Gaming Series branding on the POST screen. Even the UEFI BIOS is themed.

No price or availability info has been provided by the Hardware.info report.
