Setelah hampir setengah bulan berkutat dengan semua problem yang ada...
akhirnya saya siap untuk me-review Performa Chipset AMD780G untuk Gamexeon

Review kali ini mungkin review terpanjang yang pernah saya buat sepanjang sejarah di Gamexeon...
Karena banyak sekali hal penting yg perlu di review ...
Meski hal yang paling utama adalah motherboard, tetapi untuk fungsi keseluruhan diperlukan juga VGA Add-on yang menjadi syarat mutlak untuk meng-enabled HybridCrossfireX
