ThinkComputers.org posted a review on the ASUS P7P55D-E Pro Intel P55 LGA 1156 Motherboard



There are a couple of other decisions that will have to be made, mainly whether or not to get ready for the two other new technologies on the marketSATA 6gb/s, and USB 3. Many new P55 motherboards have onboard SATA 6Gb/s and USB 3, but were you aware that most of them actually use PCI-E lanes to compensate for the lack of buses to utilize these new methods of data transfer, taking those valuable lanes away from the video cards? Today I will be looking at the Asus P7P55D-E Pro, a middle-of-the-road version of Asus new P55 motherboards that sport SATA 6Gb/s and USB 3 without PCI-E compensation. Yes, this board prepares you for the future while allowing you the full use of your PCI-E lanes for SLI or CrossfireX by using Asus new PLX implementation. Is the P7P55D-E Pro the P55 board to have? Read on to see!
