The ASUS A55M-A/USB3 delivers the quality, features, and affordability for you to build a powerful yet budget-friendly AMD APU-based system. This motherboard is powered by an AMD A55 FCH (Hudson D2), and accommodates the latest AMD FM2 APUs that integrate the powerful Radeon HD Series Graphics. This means you'll enjoy discrete-class graphics acceleration in your games and daily applications, without the cost or power consumption of an actual discrete video card.
This motherboard is built with an array of Asus features that make it stand out immediately. The Digi+ VRM delivers precise power to the APU. Superior components provide exceptional strength and quality for long-lasting reliability and durability. The new UEFI BIOS makes the system setting and tuning friendlier, easier, and more intuitive. The latest USB 3.0 is also incorporated for blistering data transfer when copying a library of movies, music, or photos.
ASUS Home Entertainment MotherboardThe Asus A55M-A/USB3 features USB 3.0 connections with exclusive USB 3.0 Boost technology, along with native HDMI and DVI support to serve your home entertainment needs perfectly. With a slower transfer interface, HD video and audio files can become choppy or can lag, ruining your HD entertainment experience. Asus knows this, so that’s why their Home Entertainment Motherboards were created.
DIGI+ POWER CONTROLAsus motherboards using the AMD A55 chipset employ precise digital voltage regulation for the APU, called DIGI+ VRM (Voltage Regulation Modules) digital power design. The APU voltage is adjusted via either carefully developed automated modes, or by using user-defined profiles. The effect is that DIGI+ VRM technology ensures greater energy efficiency and the most precise power delivery. Boosted by world-renowned Asus quality, it creates an ideal computing platform for a diverse range of applications, from gaming to multimedia, or from office work to heavy multitasking. Engineered and tested to ensure unmitigated performance, Asus A55 boards with DIGI+ VRM remain efficient and accurate for reliable application in every scenario.
100% All High-quality Solid CapacitorsAsus high-quality solid capacitors ensure a 5,000-hour lifespan – equivalent to 2.5 times longer than traditional capacitors. All capacitors pass testing under temperatures as high as 105°, and meet Japanese industrial standards to provide excellent durability and enhanced thermal capacity.
Extra Durable Stainless Steel Back I/OAsus Motherboard back I/O panels are made from strong and corrosion-resistant stainless steel, which is bonded with a thin layer of chromium oxide to enhance the anti-corrosion properties. That’s why Asus stainless steel back I/O panels have a usage life three times longer than ordinary panels.
ESDProtect Your Computer with ESD Guards. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) conditions can happen while plugging or unplugging any USB peripherals, causing damage to the computer. Asus ESD Guards clamp the ESD voltage and shunt the majority of the ESD current away for a more reliable computing environment.
UEFI BIOSAsus UEFI BIOS offers the first mouse-controlled graphical BIOS designed with selectable modes, providing a user-friendly interface that goes beyond traditional keyboard-only controls. It also natively supports fullyutilized hard drives larger than 2.2TB in 64-bit operating systems.
