The editors didn't like
Software Needs a Makeover
No WiFi features
The usual A85X limitations (PCIe 2.0
Et al)
No one-touch overclocking button
Some confusion over two- and three-way CrossFireX support
Black and grey will flow with any hardware but look is a bit bland
Small MOSFET heatsink
UEFI is a little difficult to navigate
Overclock-designs on APU platform leads to limited performance gains
Same price as A10-5800K
And I would have liked to see a $109.99 price point (cheaper than the CPU)

Abstract: Another day, another motherboard on the FM2 platform and today sees the turn for Gigabyte with their top of the range F2A85X-UP4. This particular board is aimed at competing with the MSI FM2-A85XA-G65 that we looked at the other day by utilising the same ...
Abstract: Regular readers of Kitguru may remember our review of the . I really enjoyed AMD’s Fusion technology but it was never marketed properly and subsequently wasn’t quite the success it should have been.AMD’s A8 series chips made the headlines shortly af...
Nice features, A lot of options for Crossfire, A host of SATA ports
Performance could be better
While the performance could be better, the GIGABYTE F2A85X-UP4 does a great job in bringing out AMD's new APU's capabilities, aside from being well-equipped.(previously published in issue November 2012)...

Great out of the box performance, Fabulous overclocking performance, Build quality is top notch, Matte Black PCB FTW, Priced just right
None that I can think of
Lets start off with the design and build quality: The GIGABYTE F2A85X-UP4 though not as flared up like the other motherboards out there is still quite a looker on its own. One cannot simply deny GIGABYTE's approach to simplicity, and motherboard layout: B...
Abstract: Taiwanese company Gigabyte shows off once again with its first FM2 motherboard. We've first spotted this powerful motherboard at Computex 2012 which was held in June. Known as the F2A85X-UP4, it is the company's flagship model which was designed for the A...
Bonito y llamativo embalaj, con información detallada de las características más relevantes, Manual detallado aunque solo en inglés. Se acompaña con otro manual de montaje fácilmente entendible y multiidioma, Adjunta 6 cables SAT, 3 de ellos con conector
Embalaje demasiado justo en protecciones. Se echan de menos verdaderos moldes de protección para amortiguación de la placa base. Esto no solo mejora la integridad de la placa en el transport, sino que visualmente da mayor confianza al usuario en el proces
La placa base ATX GIGABITE F2A85X-UP4 está recomendada por Hardaily para usuarios que les guste el overclock y en equipos modestos, ideal para aquellos que dispongan de una tarjeta gráfica de la serie HD 6000 de AMD compatible con las APUs disponibles de...
BIOS UEFI para AMD, Ultra Durable 5 para AMD, Ofrece todas las conexiones gráficas necesarias y slots de expansión, Dual Graphics funciona a la primera
La plataforma FM2 no termina de estar pensada para placas caras y ATX, Dual Graphics mejora vía drivers, pero AMD no la acompaña con nuevo hardware,
Uno no sabe si es por la experiencia acumulada, porque la placa dispone de unas opciones más sencillas o porque ya es la segunda vez que lo probamos, pero hay que reconocer que la tecnología Dual Graphics nos ha funcionado a la primera y sin problema...
Muy buen rendimiento y estabilidad, Muchos conectores SATA3, 6 de ellos girados 90º para facilitar el montaje, Conector USB 3.0 interno, Bajo consumo, Buena relación calidadprecio, Compatible con 3way CrossFire
No es compatible con NVIDIA SLI
Esta Gigabyte F2A85X-UP4 es una placa base de gama media-alta a un muy buen precio (unos 118 € en tiendas de España) para el socket FM2 de AMD A pesar de que esta plataforma tiene evidentes carencias, sobre todo en su controlador de memoria, la placa
