The board we are going to talk about is based on Intel P55 Express chipset and belongs to “Republic of Gamers” series. Are you sure that it will be easy to work with? Let’s find out from our new detailed review! Review updated.
This small mainboard is rather simple, yet not primitive. It features a number of exciting extras but keenly lacks some necessities.
This elite solution from Quantum Force series has all the features and functionality a contemporary mainboard should possess. To our regret, it also accumulated quite a few drawbacks and issues, which may make your experience with this board quite difficult.
This is a technologically advanced mainboard, which functionality for some reason is kept secret from us by the manufacturer. It does have a few drawbacks, but some of its features are still truly unique as of today.
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: small;">We are already familiar with the flagship LGA1156 mainboard from Intel – DP55KG. We also know a very affordable solution in Intel P55 Express chipset – Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3R. What does Intel DP55WG mainboard from the Media Series have in common with these two, and what is different? Read our review to find out.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: small">Today we will talk about another small but fully functional microATX mainboard that can easily compete against some ATX solutions and can is even superior to some in functionality and features. It is based on Intel P55 Express chipset, supports LGA1156 processors and is called Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD4.</span></p>

DFI unveiled the P55 MI-T36 to the public a couple of months ago. It's an exciting little board based upon the P55 chipset, cut back to the most desirable essentials in order to facilitate a shrink down to the mini-ITX form factor.DFI unveiled the P55 MI-T36 to the public a couple of months ago.

It's an exciting little board based upon the P55 chipset, cut back to the most desirable essentials in order to facilitate a shrink down to the mini-ITX form factor.
What DFI are attempting to do is bring near enthusiast level performance to a form factor that is associated largely with web-browsing and HTPC use. Teamed up with a suitable GPU, the prospects of having a compact multi-purpose PC capable of delivering a high-end gaming experience is rather compelling.
Unfortunately, there's not exactly an abundance of suitable PC cases on the market catering for such builds. Right now, you're limited to a couple of ITX offerings from Silverstone, namely the SG-05 and SG-06 models, while Lian-Li have the PC Q07. Obvious limitations in going such a route are related to PSU requirements. Once you team a board like this up with a hefty GPU, cooling and power demands throw minimum case dimensions towards M-ATX sizing, which defeats the attraction of going for mini-ITX in the first place. Nevertheless, products like these create demands for innovation and we're sure the MI-T36 has given PC case and PSU vendors something to think about for the future. So although the MI-T36 seems like a bit of an outcast in certain scenarios at this stage of proceedings, it's still interesting to see what DFI have managed to cram into the mini-ITX form factor.

<p>What we really wanted to show you at this point was MSI's BIG Bang Fuzion, the eagerly anticipated motherboard based on Lucid's Hydra technology. Fuzion is not quite ready yet unfortuantely. In the meantime, we've been sent another board to review from MSI's Big Bang series called the P55 Trinergy. Not quite as exciting on paper, the Trinergy is basically the MSI P55 GD-80 on steroids. The testosterone in this case is supplied by a slew of tantalum capacitors and overclocking gadgetry topped off with NVIDIA's NF200 multiplexing features to provide additional PCI-E lanes for multi GPU setups.</p>

<p><span style="font-size: small;">MSI's angle for these additions is that they want to be seen as a high-end vendor, so they are ramping board features in a bid to be seen as a bona-fide entity that can deliver class leading products. One can't begrudge the aspiration, although high-end typically means high price too. In keeping with that tradition, the Trinergy has an MSRP of $349. Yes, that's right, $349 for a P55 board! That's the kind of money that will buy you a bells and whistles X58 motherboard that can do CrossFire X or Triple SLI natively. Not to mention that X58 boards in this price range tout similar overclocking centric features. We don't think much more needs to be said really.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: small;">The primary focus will be gaming performance in multi card configurations against other P55 boards and of course the elephant in the room called X58. We're going to stick with the article format we first introduced in the MSI-GD 65 review. You get everything you need in terms of quirks and merits right here on the front page together with the final conclusion.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-size: small;">Can anyone know better how a mainboard should work than a CPU and chipset developers themselves? Therefore, today we are going to talk about a “reference” LGA1156 ATX mainboard from Intel that belongs to the Extreme series.</span></p>
