Cyberlink PowerDVD 11 is one of the finest solutions for the BluRay experience on Windows and we found this software to work perfectly with this chipset. We tested with the new extended Bluray Disc of Lord Of The Rings.
No real problem for the system, leaving plenty of CPU cycles for other duties.

The prices of these A85X motherboards are stupid. I wouldnt pay this for a board for a £95 chip
Nice one AMD, im impressed with this chip. might think about getting one later this year, but I agree on motherboard price. it makes the whole deal seem less palatable.
Awesome stuff, love it.
Does kind of make me wonder when using a discrete graphics, that unless the on-board graphics hybrid crossfires with it, what’s the point of having have half the die of the chip made up of graphics. Being a gamer i wouldn’t be using the on-board, I know that it is a nice balance, but id love to see an AMD Piledriver sans graphics (Binary ?) with the full die for the CPU. Selfish maybe… 😉
