Im buying a motherboard for my A10-7850k and I noticed that the A58 chipset is $2 higher than the A55 chipset. What is the difference between those?

Motherboard:
A55 - Asrock FM2A55-VG3+

A58 - Asrock FM2A58-VG3+

I can't see much of a difference between them (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_AMD_chipsets), it looks like the only difference between Bolton and Hudson is the Network Interface, with Hudson (End in 5's) having gigabit standard wheres Bolton is upto the manufacturer

In either case both of these chipsets are a poor choice for the chip you have chosen, they both only have Sata2 and no USB3
From the two boards the A55 has "Xfast USB" on the board but not sure what those performance specs are.

For an A10 I would want a 75/78 at least for the Sata3 and USB3 and see what the 78 has for internet I guess
