In light of xd_1771's thread (here), I (and xd) have decided to start making a list of AMD motherboards and their power phases.
Can't find your board on the list? Submit it, and we might be able to add it!:
>>Click Here for Submission Form<<
Note 1: all un-heatsinked boards will support Enzotech MOS-C1 heatsinks
Heatsinks referred to in spreadsheet:
Enzotech MOS-C1
Enzotech MST-66
Enzotech MST-88
Note 2: Often when a board is advertised as 8+2, 16+2, etc, it often still uses 4 channels. There has been some controversy over the advertising of "8+2" phase boards since they are not true 8 channel designs. But, since 8+2 (with four channels), in *most* (read: not all), situations is much better than 4+1 (4 channels) we still decided to list them by their Phase count rather than their number of channels.
Note 3: Please be aware that just because a board does not have something the "recommended" collumn does not necessarily mean it is a bad board. It can either mean no-data, or not-recommended. As there are hundreds of AMD motherboards, we do not have time to research every one. If you have a question about a particular board, make a thread, or post in this one.
AM3+
FM2
FM1
AM3
AM2/AM2+
* indicates split power phase
