ASUS P7P55D-E Pro LGA1156 Motherboard Review

Fri 2010-03-19 - Posted by Patrick "MACMAC" MacMillan

ThinkComputers have posted a review of the ASUS P7P55D-E PRO, an Intel P55-based motherboard that supports the new SATA 6Gb/s and USB 3.0 standards.

Here's what they had to say:

"Running USB 3.0 and SATA 6Gb/s without compensation, these are the P55 boards for the future. LGA 1156 isn’t going anywhere for a while, and these boards prepare you for the next generation of data transfer.

The P7P55D-E Pro performed well, had rock solid stability, and no issues. The BIOS was laid out very well, and has an excellent overclocking menu. Though the bundle should have been pretty plain, Asus threw in an SLI bridge and an expansion bracket with USB 2.0 and eSATA.

I found nothing not to like about this board."

If you are going to buy a P55 motherboard right now make sure that it supports both SATA 6Gb/s and USB 3.0 since that will greatly extend the usable life of your system.
