FM2+ AMD A68H board for budget builds

This Micro ATX motherboard fits FM2+ socket AMD A-Series and Athlon processors on the AMD A68H chipset. It provides two DDR3 slots that accept up to 32GB of memory in dual-channel mode. The board includes one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, one PCIe 2.0 x1 slot and one legacy PCI slot for expansion cards.

Steady operation with DDR3 2133 OC headroom

Memory runs at 1333, 1600, 1866 or 2133 MHz when overclocked, giving headroom for sustained workloads. Four SATA III ports support RAID 0, 1, 5 and 10 arrays for redundant or striped storage. Realtek RTL8111G LAN and Realtek ALC887 8.1-channel audio handle network and sound duties without extra cards.

Replaces older FM2 boards with native USB 3.0

The A68H chipset adds native USB 3.0 on the rear panel, removing the need for third-party controllers found on earlier FM2 designs. Two rear USB 3.0 ports and six USB 2.0 ports (two rear, four internal) cover modern peripherals. The upgrade is worthwhile when moving from a board that lacks SATA III or USB 3.0 support.

Questions about this item

How much power does the MSI A68HM-P33 v2 draw when the system runs all day?

The board uses the AMD A68H chipset with two DDR3 slots and a single PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, so idle power is low and scales with the chosen FM2+ processor and memory kit.

Which memory kit must I already own for this motherboard to work?

You need non-ECC, non-buffered DDR3 DIMMs running at 1333, 1600, 1866 or 2133 (OC) MHz; the two slots support up to 32 GB in dual-channel mode.

Will my older PCI expansion card fit alongside the PCIe 3.0 x16 slot on this board?

Yes, the layout includes one legacy PCI slot, one PCIe 2.0 x1 slot and one PCIe 3.0 x16 slot, so a PCI card can be installed at the same time.
