It's official: AMD's latest chipset has finally landed. Consequently, as expected, a number of motherboard manufacturers have already announced their brand new AM2+-based mobos. Over the next few days, we are probably also going to see quite a few 790GX-based platforms being announced. One step ahead of the others, Foxconn has already gone public with its latest AMD motherboards, of which it says they are the world's first.

Although no one can say for certain whether Foxconn's claims are entirely accurate or not, one thing that is pretty clear is that its latest products are among the first of their kind. The company's latest motherboards are based on AMD's 790GX chipset, coupled together with the SB750 Southbridge. This means that they will provide support for the latest AMD Phenom processors and Radeon graphics.

Currently, two models are included in the company's recently released A7DA family of motherboards, namely the A7DA-S and the A7DA. Both include HyperTransport 3.0 and PCIe Generation 2.0 technologies, which are meant to increase the performance levels of the CPU and of the graphics cards.

The integrated Radeon HD 3300 graphics processor is meant to deliver better graphics, compared with AMD's previous generation of integrated graphics. Offering a higher clock speed than AMD's 780G, the 790GX brings about an impressive 33% improvement in graphics performance. With DirectX 10 and Shader Model 4.0-support, the board is ideal for both mainstream and entry-level desktop computer systems.

Both boards provide support for up to 8GB of DDR2 memory, on the four dual-channel memory DIMMs. There are two PCIe x 16 slots (which support 2 x8 bandwidth), 2 PCIe x 1 slots and 2 PCI slots. Both models have built-in HD Audio and Gigabit LAN. The only difference between the two is that the A7DA-S model provides support for IEEE 1394a, while the A7DA will only come with 6 SATA II, 12 USB 2.0 and 1 ATA connector.

Pricing and availability are not available at this point in time.
