The Asus A88XM-PLUS/CSM is a micro ATX sized motherboard for AMD's Fusion processors, utilizing socket FM2+. These combine a mid-range CPU and GPU into what AMD call an "APU" - Accelerated Processing Unit. This approach provides a low-cost computing platform with decent performance for a wide range of applications, even handling some gaming without a dedicated graphics card. This motherboard also allows a dedicated video card to be installed to augment or replace the on-chip graphics capabilities. A wide range of connectivity is also available on this motherboard. There are eight SATA 6Gbps drive connections, four USB 3.0 ports (2 external, 2 internal), analog audio plugs, and gigabit Ethernet. In addition, the APU's video output provides several video outputs: VGA, DVI, and HDMI. All three of those can be used at the same time, for affordable triple monitor support.
