Description
Reviews (0)

The ASUS M5A78L-M LX3 Plus is an AMD motherboard for socket AM3+ and AM3 processors, built on the AMD 760G (780L) northbridge with an SB710 southbridge in a Micro ATX layout. This is a pre-owned, tested unit. It supports AMD FX (Zambezi), Phenom II, Athlon II and Sempron 100 series CPUs, dual-channel DDR3 up to 16GB, a PCIe 2.0 x16 slot and four SATA ports.

Older AMD desktops are still common in homes, offices and workshops, and a failed motherboard does not have to mean replacing the whole computer. The ASUS M5A78L-M LX3 Plus lets you keep a compatible AM3+ or AM3 processor, DDR3 memory, drives and Micro ATX case. Qualcomm Atheros gigabit Ethernet and four rear USB ports cover basic connectivity, and the PCIe 2.0 x16 slot accepts a graphics card if needed.

Who is the ASUS M5A78L-M LX3 Plus for?

The ASUS M5A78L-M LX3 Plus suits repairers and home users who need a replacement board for an existing AMD AM3+ or AM3 desktop, as well as anyone maintaining older machines that run legacy software on Windows 7. It makes the most sense when you already own a compatible AMD processor and DDR3 memory that you want to reuse.

ASUS M5A78L-M LX3 Plus key features

Socket AM3+ and AM3: Supports AMD FX (Zambezi), Phenom II, Athlon II and Sempron 100 series processors, so you can reuse a CPU from an existing AMD system.
AMD 760G chipset: The AMD 760G (780L) northbridge and SB710 southbridge provide a proven platform for everyday desktop computing on older AMD processors.
Dual-channel DDR3: Supports dual-channel DDR3 memory up to a maximum of 16GB, which is plenty for office work, browsing and legacy applications.
PCIe 2.0 x16 slot: One PCIe 2.0 x16 slot lets you add a dedicated graphics card for extra display outputs or better graphics performance.
SATA storage: Four SATA 3Gb/s ports connect hard drives, SATA SSDs and optical drives, enough for most home and office configurations.
Gigabit networking: A Qualcomm Atheros gigabit Ethernet controller provides wired network connectivity, with four USB ports on the rear panel.

What’s in the box

Before you buy

Use an AMD socket AM3+ or AM3 processor and check the ASUS CPU support list for your exact model, as high-wattage FX chips may not be supported. Memory must be DDR3, up to 16GB in total. ASUS lists Windows 7, Vista and XP support, so drivers for later Windows versions may be limited. Confirm your case takes Micro ATX boards.
