14 DAY TRIAL // Besides its consumer motherboards based on the Intel Z77 chipset, MSI also plans to build a series of business oriented Ivy Bridge LGA 1155 solutions powered by the Intel B75 chipset.
One such board is the B75A-GD43 that the company has just showcased during the CeBIT 2012 fair.
Built around the Intel B75 PCH, MSI’s creation is one of the most lackluster 7-series Ivy Bridge motherboards we have seen to date since it sports a single SATA 6Gbps port and no overclocking support.
The good news however is that users do get four USB 3.0 ports (two via an on-board header) and a PCI Express x16 Gen 3.0 add-on slot, which can be considered an update when coming from other business motherboards.
No info regarding pricing is available so far, but MSI’s B75-powered creation should definitely be taken into consideration if you plan on building an entry-level Ivy Bridge PC.
