AMD 890FX chipset, codenamed RD890 accompanied by HyperTransport 3.0 and South Bridge SB850, which provides native support for SATA 6.0 Gbps. BIOSTAR famous T-Series “TA890FXE” motherboard supports existing and upcoming socket AM3 processors, including Phenom II X6. “TA890FXE” is powered by a 6 phase PWM, supporting 140W processors, four PCI-Express 2.0 x16 slots supporting ATI CrossFireX technology, apart from two legacy PCI slots. 7.1 channel HD Blu-Ray audio, Gigabit Ethernet, and FireWire make for the rest of it 
According to AMD official announcement earlier that SB850 does not support ACC function; but BIOSTAR “BIO-unlocKING” technology breakthrough the limitation and provides the flexibility to unlock extra core(s) achieving much greater performance with lower cost. “BIO-unlocKING” technology is available on every BIOSTAR 8xx series motherboard. “TA890FXE” also obtains the T-Series tradition; it offers outstanding overclocking capability for all time. We shall expect some amazing records later on. | ATX | mATX | Chipset | 890FX+SB850 | 890GX+SB850 | 880G+SB850 | 880G+SB850 | Model name | TA890FXE | TA890GXE | TA880G HD | TA880GB HD | PWM | 6 Phase (140W) | 5 Phase(140W) | 4 Phase (125W) | 4 Phase (125W) | GTO63 | GT60
