    Thanks guys, tried to make it as fair and true as possible. Which board is better really comes down to your needs, budget, and for some, product brand loyalty.

    X58 Battle for Supremacy Three way Motherboard Shootout.

    The three boards we will be looking at today are high end - that is with the exception of EVGA's FTW3. The motherboards in question all feature six DDR3 DIMM slots, easily enabling 12GB of memory on a desktop platform or more if you wish. The boards all offer USB3 and SATA 6 support together...

    Thanks guys, took me some time to do this one, think it was well worth the effort though. As for AM3, sorry don’t do much at the moment with AMD, but if things change, will get things posted for all to read.

    P55 Motherboard Shootout

    We just wanted to recheck to see if our CPU, memory, and boards were still in perfect working order, to check this we ran OCCT LINPAC for one hour with sleep mode enabled after 30Minutes, then left this for one hour to see if the keyboard would bring the systems out of sleep to continue the...

    P55 Motherboard Shootout

    We looked to see if the motherboards function how they should, testing sleep mode, speed-step, turbo boost, plus the given software that came with each board. We were quite impressed to find most things worked, but were disappointed in not being able to use our Iphone to overclock the ASUS M3E...

    Moving onto a 4.2GHz overclock with the Intel K875-CPU and 1600MHz CAS 6 for our memory running quad channel, how well will the boards cope with matched memory Timings and voltages. The Gigabyte is clearly showing some advantage over the other motherboards in both the 3D benchmarks...

    X31 multiplier applied to the fully unlocked 875KCPU with all other settings left at Stock in these tests. How well will the boards deal with the extra load and sudden changes in frequency imposed on them. The boards will be in an idle state of 1200MHz then going up to 4123 MHz loaded. The...

    P55 Motherboard Shootout

    We began our tests with out of the box Stock settings leaving the Motherboard's to set their required voltages and timings ECT. On running the tests, we were amassed at first just how well the Gigabyte board was doing in the bench-tests. (This was until we noticed that by default Gigabyte had...

    P55 Motherboard Shootout

    EVGA P55 FTW200 E658 The FTW200 E658 is a dark and aggressive looking motherboard. EVGA has gone with the black-gray theme with almost all their P55 motherboards in its line up that is all but the *** 200 Classified. While the board looks quite imposing, it does so without being covered in a...

    ASUS MAXIMUS III Formula Review

    Heads up for extreme overclockers using the ASUS Maximus III Formula with the Clarksdale CPU's. There seems to be some incompatibility in the TurboV software when overclocking, when pushing Blcock the system will lock and change registers for VTT, PLL, and Dram. Am not sure if this problem...

    Intel DH55TC Motherboard Review

    Thanks for the heads up guys. I like this board a lot, the cost and general use for media PC tick all the boxes, it is basic but this is Intel's none extreme board, it can also be used with Linfield CPU's, but you will need to use a PCI-E GFX card if you are going to pop a Linfield into the...

    Intel DH55TC Motherboard Review

    The best thing with the new Clarksdale is the integrated GPU, which makes for a great media centre, as only one item requires cooling. As found using, the stock Intel heatsink the system is near to silent even when running at full load. Getting 5Gig out of these CPU's won't be easy to get...

    Intel DH55TC Motherboard Review

    Overclocking Clarkdale on P55 As stated earlier the Intel board is not based around the overclocking crowd, so we used an ASUS Maximus III Formula Motherboard for this section of testing to see just how far we could push the Core i5 661 and Core i5 670 CPU's. The cascade results were a little...
