[IMFDB]

[matthewcardinals]

Which bios version for this board supports the clarkdale cpus?

[ASAWProductions]

[eythorion]

Is this better than the Gigabyte p55a-ud6?

And also can you have 2 gtx 470's in sli and 1 9600gt for physx?

[amoresai]

[1981z28camaro]

hey, can someone tell me how to lower the Core Voltage?

I have the GD85 mobo.

I installed the Corsair H50, and enabled the OC Genie, didn't press the base clock increase buttons, and it gave me an overclock of 3.58 Ghz, I checked on the net to see if the temps I'm getting are good (42 degrees idle) and noticed someone had commented on someone else that had the same OC as me, and they also have a voltage of 1.392 V, and the person said it should be lower to reduce heat.

[1981z28camaro]

ALSO... I'm wondering if I should just disable Turbo Boost, but I don't know how to do that either, haha, I can't find an option for it in the bios.

[MrChefCook]

The Motherboard Users manual tells that it supports 1.5V on the ram. Or im wrong & i can buy & use new Kingston 2x2GB 1600 mhz CL9 kit with 1.7-1.9V ?

[FSXHD92]

and you can t use Core I7 you must have LGA 1366

[thehostler]

@FSXHD92 i7 860 is socket 1156. (i7 870 too)

[halthomp]

@FSXHD92 ABSOLUTE FAIL!!!!!

[FSXHD92]

how many computers do you have ?

[Tha0men]

2:23 ooooh Yes. He is being very very gentil removing the sticker

Watch the GD-65 video if you dont know what im talking about HAHAH

[shehanster]

dude!!!! linus stop yelling at the mic!!!

[heyyouroverhere]

it's called turning down the volume.

[t3xta]

im going to be buying this mainboard also will be buying a Ati hd 5850 and a i5 750 i have a cpu cooler already from my previouse setup it says it works with "ALL intel socket 775, 478 CPU's" will i be able to use this or is it not usless =[???

[kodiak9922]

it´s useless, this board has a LGA1156 socket, so you must buy a cooler for a 1156 socket

[edge160]

Who needs all those accessories? Bunch of garbage IMO.

[evos234]

no msi extras cd in my box, what deos it contain?

[kickazzdrummer666]

This is my first time watching an unboxing vid of a product done outdoors!

nice review Linus!

[zhiheng2005]

u think that MSI P55-GD80 or ASUS P7P55D EVO better?

[LikeAVideo]

@zhiheng2005 MSI P55-GD80 FTW!

[zhiheng2005]

THe parts like not so durable... not like ASUS and GIGABYTE Boards.. they have 100% Japanese made..

[Tha0men]

@zhiheng2005

Well, how could you ever say that the parts aren't durable. Says someone with a lack of english spelling.

[zhiheng2005]

Sorry, I meant by the durability of the motherboard capacitors... For example GIGABYTE P55 Boards have Ultra Durable 3 and ASUS boards have 100% Ultra Long Life Japan-Made Solid Capacitors etc. thingy

[Tha0men]

@zhiheng2005

ohhhh. ok

[lejink]

thought i had the confidence to build my own gaming rig, used to take computers appart and swap parts as a teenager.. this is a hell of a lot more complicated then those days

[SkISl0pE]

Thanks Linus, this was a great review. I might get this board in the coming weeks.

[IBlueNinjaI]

me wantz :(

[MeHHay010]

Hi Can I Ask Does The Coolermaster V8 Cpu Cooler will Fit Into a P55 Mobo??? coz i'm hesitating to buy the V8 For My P55 Mobo

[SLRking01]

Did he say Slot or Slut!?

[wickedout2010]

Thanks Linus. This the board I just bought for my new Intel i5 rig.

[1981z28camaro]

can you run TWO GPU's at 16x? or do you just mean there are TWO 16x slots?

[TsilisMiixalis]

you run two at 8x

[1981z28camaro]

I decided to go with the EVGA X58 Micro, with the Core i7 920.

it let's you run both at 16X, it's essentially a the EVGA Classified, but smaller :-)

and $250 instead of $400

[gogos7]

Great presentation, fast and informative.

[StaySharp2000]

looks so gaming !!! awesome

[Ratemgoal]

Wow, MSI's P55 line seems a lot then their X58 one. They must have spending all that money gained from their graphics cards and motherboard business on the R&D department, which is great.

[syafiqmilan]

this motherboard looks so awesome

[op2rules]

You never showed what the direct voltage readout things plug into, aside from that... WOW that is a lot of accessories!

[LinusTechTips]

Fixed. Thanks!

[LaczupakabraPL]

Great great video Linus! Thanx alot

rated 5* as always

[KounterMusic]

Still haven't gotten a haircut? =_=

[Shinobi027]

[obc993]

did he went to the future or what?

xD

[THELUKESTIR]

thelukestir style tip:

get a new hat :P

but good looking board, cant wait for the i5 reviews

[LinusTechTips]

The lizard hat is a chick magnet. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

[Yytinen]

''That's my story and I'm sticking to it.'' Isnt that from a song by Collin Raye ?

--yytinen

[OmfgWallHaxz]

@LinusTechTips

Maybe that's because your lizard hat is an Esther magnet. =D

[4ourTimber]

u aint the first....

[Bob8673]

nice heatpipe
