Thread: ECS X58B-A Black Series

With the launch of the new Intel processor architecture we will gradually seeing the motherboard manufacturers new models take to earn your preference. But while the rest of the companies seek to offer more expensive motherboards that allow marketing machine to offer ECS makes an interesting offer with a motherboard that while not the cheapest is possibly the most interesting in considering price characteristics.

Is a tradition with dragon motifs found in boxes of ECS Elite group? This time is no exception and we found the design to which we are accustomed to in their line of Black Series boards.

The back is quite understated, highlighting over other logos ATI Crossfire X and NVIDIA SLI. Recall that the selling point of this motherboard is that it can run both ATi cards in Cross Fire mode as NVIDIA SLI mode.

The case is one of those packages that are no longer seen in components for computers. It opens like a book and a glimpse into the motherboard and the accessory kit. Reminiscent of the early designs of boxes of motherboards for AMD K8.

As can be seen include 6 SATA cables with connectors 90 degrees a back panel for USB and Fire wire CD with drivers for the motherboard plus manual of it can back so that everything is in order and detail of the connectors rear plate and a eSATA cable for external devices.

As for rear outputs we find two PS / 2 ports, 2 x e-SATA 2 LAN a 6-pin Fire wire port, 6 USB ports and the respective outputs. Special mention deserves the little red button between the PS / 2 and eSATA can clean the BIOS settings.
