Biostar Also Unveils T-Series TA75MH2 Micro-ATX Socket FM2 Motherboard

In addition to the Hi-Fi A85W, Biostar unveiled a mainstream socket FM2 motherboard in the micro-ATX form-factor, the T-Series TA75MH2. Based on the AMD A75 FCH, the motherboard is designed keeping essential connectivity in mind, and is built in the compact micro-ATX form-factor. The FM2 socket, which supports the latest AMD A-Series "Trinity" APUs, is powered by a simple 5-phase VRM. Nevertheless, Biostar included a MOSFET heatsink. The FM2 socket is wired to two DDR3 DIMM slots, supporting up to 32 GB of dual-channel DDR3-1866 MHz memory; and a PCI-Express 2.0 x16 slot.

In addition to the PCI-Express 2.0 x16, the TA75MH2 features two PCI-Express 2.0 x1 and a legacy PCI slot. The AMD A75 FCH gives out six SATA 6 Gb/s ports, all of which are assigned as internal ports on the TA75MH2. Display connectivity includes DVI, HDMI, and D-Sub. The TA75MH2 packs legacy connectivity, including COM (serial) and LPT (parallel), via headers. Other connectivity includes 6-channel HD audio, gigabit Ethernet, and four USB 3.0 ports (two on the rear panel, two via header). The board is driven by UEFI BIOS. It is expected to be priced at US $70.

I like all the colours on this board, but why not pci-e 3-[not supported?] Only two dimms as well, suppose it's budget pricing etc.

headers for micro board

here the usb 3.0 header is well placed, but why do biostar always include an old fashioned printer header on their board?
the micro size is small enough, use it for a better layout.
and just a dual channel ddr3, i suppose they will make a m+ board later on, like they did for the fm1 socket.

A CPU-fan and that's it?

I think I see one below the PCI slut.

I think I see one below the PCI slut.

Yes, I was wondering about that one too, but the other one is white and that one is more beige-ish, (could be the photo tho).

Anyway, I checked the manual, and that's indeed sys-fan1, so it's all good, thanks
