Stephen Intel DP55KG P55 LGA1156 @ Benchmark Reviews
“Benchmark Reviews had the opportunity to review and launch two new Lynnfield processors from Intel: the Core i5-750 and the Core i7-870. While these were the stars of the launch, it wouldn’t be a complete platform without the motherboard. Released in parallel with the two processors, is the Intel P55 Express Chipset. In this review, we’ll examine the new chipset in detail and take a closer look at Intel’s flagship DP55KG Extreme Series Motherboard.”
Gigabyte P55-UD6 & P55M-UD4 @ Neoseeker
“Gigabyte offers a broad range of P55 motherboards, including the P55M-UD4 and P55-UD6. The former is a performance oriented microATX board, which packs a bunch of interesting features in a smaller form factor. The latter is their current high-end offering with an impressive 24-phase power delivery system and six DDR3 slots, just like you would find on a X58 motherboard. Both boards support Gigabyte’s proprietary Smart6 feature, CrossFire and SLI technologies as well as DDR3 memory at over 2 GHz.”
DFI LANParty DK P55-T3eH9 @ TweakTown
“So, what of the P55? DFI has finally released its own P55 based board. This is the LANParty DK P55-T3eH9; a board that could possibly allow you to push a Core i5 or Core i7 800 to its maximum potential. The new DK P55-T3eH9 offers many of DFI’s trademark features like Digital PWM, Sintered HeatPipes, CMOS Reloaded and of course their Genie BIOS.”
Gigabyte GA-P55-UD6: P55 vs X58 @ Benchmark Reviews
“The consumer might not know what to expect when choosing between the two products, other than one is mainstream (P55) and the other is for extreme enthusiasts (X58). In this article, Benchmark Reviews directly compares the Intel Core i7-860 equipped Gigabyte GA-P55-UD6 motherboard against the GA-EX58-UD4P with Intel Core i7-920.”
ASUS P7P55D EVO P55 LGA1156 @ Benchmark Reviews
“As we move into the holiday season, many are looking to Intel’s new Lynnfield Desktop Platform for an upgrade or new build. Not surprising, there’s plenty of good hardware on the market to choose from. In this article, Benchmark Reviews looks at the P7P55D EVO motherboard from ASUS. As part of their P55 lineup, the ASUS P7P55D EVO provides full support the for the new Lynnfield platform, along with several unique features.”
ECS P55H-A @ Motherboards.org
“This board performs great, with performance in the same class as other motherboards in this chipset. Overclocking was a bit of a mixed bag as the 750 CPU was able to overclock to 4GHz without issue but the voltage options did not allow me to see what the new voltage would be. From a features point of view the board is a standard P55 board but for $100 on Newegg after mail-in rebate this is an acceptable compromise as many other boards are much more expensive.”
ASUS P7P55D Deluxe Motherboard @ TBreak
“The TurboV is a wired remote that connects to the motherboard and is routed out the back of the I/O panel. It includes A, B and C profile buttons, a power button, a +/- button for under and overclocking and manual and auto mode buttons.”
Gigabyte P55-UD6 (P55 Express) @ TweakTown
“Aimed for a more high-end market in the mainstream, this board comes in at just under $250USD over at Newegg which isn’t a great deal more than the ASUS offering. Will it match up in performance and features? We shall endeavor to answer this question.”
ECS P55H-A Black @ PCShopTalk
“In this review I will test the first board made by ECS with the P55 chipset, LGA1156 socket and will compare the test results with the P55 boards I have tested in the past, but also with a X58 platform, to see how the performances differ and if the Hyperthreading feature on the I7 920 brings a big advantage over the I5 750.”
ASUS P7P55D Deluxe (P55 Express) @ TweakTown
“ASUS has always been at the forefront when it comes to new technologies. Lynnfield is no exception. At Computex we were lucky enough to see just how well this new technology would work and from there the birth of the new Lynnfield processor and P55 chipset has already caused a stir in the hardware community.”
