For Micro-Star International, the word “gaming” isn't just a label it describes products under, it is an actual brand that has been strapped to the two newest motherboards to leave its laboratories.

Said two motherboards are called A88X-G45 Gaming and A88X Gaming. The former is a Full-ATX model, while the latter is a micro-ATX motherboard.

Since they possess the FM2+ socket, that means they're ready to welcome AMD's Kaveri APUs.

Both newcomers have MSI Audio Boost technology, MSO USB Audio Power technology, MSI Real USB Power, Killer LAN networking and Military Class 4 Components (Hi-c Cap, Super Ferrite Choke and Solid CAPs). OC Genie 4 and Click BIOS 4 are included as well.

That said, both mainboards have 4 DDR3 DIMM memory slots and several PCI Express 3.0, 2.0 x16/x8/x4/x1 slots, plus a bunch of ports on the rear panels, and via headers. Prices are unknown though.

Assassin's Creed Liberation HD ships for free with A88X-G45 Gaming.
