ASUS P7P55D-E Pro P55 Core i5 LGA1156 Motherboard Unboxing & First Look Linus Tech Tips

[DavidJonesRU]

Thanks!

[alexabc54]

does anyone know where i can buy this board (uk)

[ilibasic]

This board is not true 6gb/s.. i have it and i hate thet sata 3 on it!! have the corsair force GT ssd and i cant go over 370mb/s.. for meny that is good but if the ssd is rated at 555mb/s then 370 sucks HARD.. so this board is a crap if you are gona use sata3/6... SUCKS

[MrBonebus]

sooo, some one sugest to me a great graphics card to go with this and 12g ram and an i7

[fifthgear93]

5:24 the grey ones are 6GB/s

[fifthgear93]

4:24  12+2=14, not 16 LOL

[merysantapola]

blabla bla bla blabla only bla bla bla

[julianomaxter]

"p7p55d... aaarrfff - e pro"

[Gdale32djs]

should i get this board for my i5 750 or should i get asus maximus iii formula motherboard???please ansswer

[izhan22]

@theRAGEclanmw2

yes all usb will work with usb3 as it is a combo port for both usb2,3

and also the usb 2.0 is a combo port for the usb2,1

[sk8erkwl1996]

I've built my own custom pc for the first time just a few days ago using this motherboard but what can I use to connect it to my monitor. I'm trying using a 1gb pci-e ddr2 graphics card but when I plug in my monitor on the VGA port on the graphics card my monitor still says no signal. Any help? Plz sum1 reply asap as I need to get it running soon

[izhan22]

@sk8erkwl1996

did u connect all cables

i think the cable which come from monitor is having loose connection

try removing it,blowing air on to it and then plug it back

[DecodeAGamer]

@izhan22 you "think"?! blowing air on that cable... lol, sorry, that's just silly.

He may not have plugged in his PCI-e connectors on his GPU, the card maybe dead, he may have shorted out the motherboard too.

Theres alot to consider, not just down to a VGA cable and blowing on it... I've never even heard of that happening.

[TRYER25]

@DecodeAGamer The only people that blow air on the female end of a cable, are people that go from Nintendo game systems to computers=Z

[Naerah]

@sk8erkwl1996 the problem may be the video card itself. try another one if you can.

[samad1197]

does it support ddr 2?

[izhan22]

@samad1197

no it has new ddr3 only

[theangelswithwings]

@theRAGEclanmw2 yes

[IntoStrategy]

hes trying to be a computer gangsta :P

[CookieMonzta1995]

So does this have Sli support?

[izhan22]

@CookieMonzta1995

it has sli

[TheMegaAK]

does not have a crossfire bridge then?

[TheRES74]

If I get this motherboard with i7 870 shod I get 1333 memory or 1600?

[mjjbello]

usb and gb/s bam, gf broken motherboard.

[picklejar20]

@StealthKillerMW meh, tomayto tomarto. :D

[picklejar20]

@StealthKillerMW are you sure? because apparently it's suppose to be the 'asus' part of pegasus, and im not sure but i think pegasus isn't pronounced pegasoos

[TutorialsPcBlog]

In the box there is sataIII 6gb/s cable?

[JustinQuiksilver]

@StealthKillerMW lol....cool

[JustinQuiksilver]

HE SAID "asoose" instead of asus :D

[BenDover137]

Hey this board doesn't come with a crossfire bridge, only SLI. I want to use this board with two 5770's, but can i use this SLI bridge? or do i have to buy a ATI one? where can i get one?

[thePCgamingZone]

@BenDover137 i dont think u can use SLI and i wudnt risk it i wud look on amazon i think i saw 1 there for only about £2 and u only need 1 benchmarks shows tht u get better performance with 1 than 2, crossfire bridge tht is

[nitishbansal7]

nice video...

[Furion89]

Omg the mother board has a CPU socket !

[iiFizzYHD]

does the previous version have a usb 3.0 aswell? if it does where is it on the board?

[buchananfibbing]

True Free energy devices exist,But Elite controllers don't want ppl to be free from the costs of energy,Find a motor that needs no fuel or input at LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM ,take part in the revolution!

[natemio]

@gergy008

No they are 6gb/s

he just said it wrong lol

[claudiodeus]

Whats the best mother board for core i5 750? I'm gonna use my pc for games and I'll not do any kind of overclocking. Thank you.

[q8bohmed]

@lsnyders

P7P55D-E LX does not support CrossFireX/SLI = ( PCIe x16 Slots ) , and also this model you have to active or enable the ( I/O Level Up ) = SATA III 6 Gb/s / USB 3.0 .

P7P55D-E Pro its much better support CrossFireX/SLI with 16 Hybrid Power Phase and none ( I/O Level Up ) and 7x SATA 3Gb/s Storage ,

the P7P55D-E PRO its the best model of P7P55D-E Series

and y the Intel P55 Chipset Only support DDR3 Dual-Channel Memory (RAM)

I Recommend Corsair Dominator 4GB 1600MHz [ CMP4GX3M2C1600C7 ]

[pepperoniis]

What to choose between this board and Maximus III Gene ?

[719OG]

At Stock speed?

[719OG]

I have my list ready: ASus p7p55d e pro• i5 655K • GTX 470• x2 320gb WD 7200• 4gb corsair

[kuracodm]

@719OG me 2 man!!! only it will be an i7 860, GTX 470 (in the distant futire in SLI) and 640Gb WD. cant wait to get the cash ^^

[yeoy2]

@kuracodm

Same man but instea ill have a gtx 480

[berindea]

@719OG Why not get the i5 760/750 quadcore?Much better than that 655k.

[719OG]

@berindeaI really dont know but im changing my setup again, Im going 1366 i7 920 P6X58D Premium

[berindea]

@719OG The 760/750 is faster than the i7 920 in games:).

[PorscheLieber]

I'm getting this board, It's all what I want in a board; USB 3, and SATA 3, SLI and Core i5 support, I don't want more than that, on the other hand GIGABYTE boards with the same specs are more expensive for no reason.

[bowarrful]

would this board go well with an i5 750 and an 5870?

[r0rozx]

@bowarrful

I don't recommend it for you .

It has a lot of boot failure problems , I am experiencing one right now and I cann't fix it.

[bowarrful]

@r0rozx ok thanks dude guess i have to look for another board then lol.

[BlazinDirty]

usb 3.0 is dead - the new technologie is now LIGHT PEAK!

search for it!

[patontheback94]

how do you hook up a monitor to the P55 line of boards. do you have to go through a video card?

[j00jy]

@patontheback94 Yes the p55 boards do not have on-board video.

[avantgarde120]

Got mine three months ago,great board!

[GuitarJerk13]

@avantgarde120 I couldn't agree more. I got mine maybe one and a half two months ago, it's awesome.

[starkillertoy]

p55 e pro 2 pcie and p55 pro 3 pcie but no usb3 and sata3. which will u guy get?

[Forthevline]

With the bracket that has USB and e-SATA; is that USB 2.0 or 3.0?

[hewhoeatspie]

If i put both of my gtx 280 on this board will they be running at 16x/16x?

[captainclayman]

@hewhoeatspie no

8x/8x

that's still good though, you wont notice a whole lot of performance difference.

[Rusher0]

@captainclayman yeah, but i would prefer to buy a better card that's running on one slot at 16x

[frozencold199]

@hewhoeatspie x8/x8

[tonytober]

I found out a fail: at 4:27...

"There are 16 phases, meaning 12+2..."

Math fail... But i'm fan of LinusTechTips so I don't offense anything. He made me buy this stuff ^_^

[TheFallingSoldier]

it has a cpu socket, WOW!

[manurrubbish]

Got one of these yesterday, only 130 pounds, Awesome

[alex399r]

can i ask where you got it from for £130? can't find one cheaper than £150 :<

[uut0]

omg the mobo has a cpu socket! lol

[iPuR3xXx3d63i]

horrible review

[GamerX7800X]

this isn't a review but a unboxing

[chrisfur2]

i want this board

[GamerX7800X]

1:54 LoL he wanted to say fuck!

[TheWoWRevelation]

@GamerX7800X Yeah lol, "FFFfffff...."

[Ankido94]

@GamerX7800X Haha yeah i heard :P

[dallatorretdu]

i'm buying one of this

[Laxticx]

wew just got this board, this is a great review and this board is great

[acefilms2008]

yea but i would like to see other vids on this board too... i dont want just one opinion, mabey 3DGAMEMAN can make one... his reviews are great!! also PCWizKid, he makes pretty good vids too.. LinusTechTips also makes pretty good vids. those are my 3 top hardware review vid makers... i trust them with my new build...

[Vampyreq]

5:26 Small slip there. 6GB/s not 3 :)

[acefilms2008]

lol im still wondering why this is the only vid of this board

[chrisfur2]

@acefilms2008 i know right.

[melvkong]

anyone having noisy sound comin from this mobo?

[gmodsa]

oww who uses firewire, lets see everyone that has mac, its build-in? OMG

[flame142]

@gmodsa macs suck. if you have a mac, you do not classify as a person.

[romeoguitar]

ASUS P7P55D-e pro or GA-P55-UD5??

[FunsterProductions]

go with the ASUS P7P55D-e pro

[zhiheng2005]

UD5 is better than the P7P55D-E Pro.. Coz premium board have onboard Power/Reset Buttons

[hussainmushahid]

you can just turn the power switch off, so it doesnt matter if it has a onboard power/reset switch or not

[acefilms2008]

i used firewire bitch!

[Averin]

Hey guy's what's the difference between all the p55p7d-e boards? they have a whole bunch of suffixes, such as LE, Pro, premium. Was planning to get this MB, but what's the main differences?

[Bioquakee]

Main hardware points on each board, starting from the bargain boards to the high-end ones (features are cumulative):

LX (there is no LE for P7P55D-E series): PCIe x16 is set up for x16, x4 bandwidth, which means dual gfx card set ups won't get ideal performance. single cards would.

Pro: Adds in PCIe x16 @ x8, x8 which gets you about 90-95% efficiency outta mid to mid-high-end dual gfx rigs.

Deluxe: 16+3 power phases, 10ch audio, double gigabit ethernet, OCing remote

Premium: 32+3 power phase

[zhiheng2005]

@Bioquakee 32+3 or 24+3?

Just correct for you...

[Bioquakee]

EDIT to my last post:

LX should be replaced with (no suffx). The LX board doesn't have a second PCIe 2.0 x16 slot, less power phases and I think is the cheapest.

I just recently ordered this board (P7P55D-E PRO) mainly because it could support PCIe 2.0 x16 @ x8, x8 along with all the other cool new things.

[zhiheng2005]

@Averin The E series mainly is just an update of the USB 3.0 and SATA 6gbit/s actually you dont really nid that... just get normal P7P55D Series... Get a Pro Board if u want SLI/Crossfire, a EVO Board (Modified Version of Pro board just a few diff) which includes On-board Power/Reset button, Clear CMOS Button etc. The High ends are P7P55D Premium & Deluxe... It is mainly used for OC and Maximus III Formula (Extreme for gaming) I just Recommend a Pro or a Evo (If u dont wan 2 mount it in a case)

[FLORENAS]

Very informative, thx Linus!

[therobstar1]

that was the best unboxing video of you linus, i like that you take up more time, did a more detailed review and longer video. keep going it so :).

[FaintSnow]

Damn, I should've waited another month and bought this instead D=..

Now I'm stuck with USB 2.0 and Sata 3gbit =(

[jeffen8]

Wow! a CPU SOCKET?!?!?! HOLY SHIT

[ikcti]

If it's 16-phase, how is it 12+2?

[PuiuDR]

@ikcti

2 are hybrid :) , kinda virtual :)

[vchrizs]

i rather go to gigabyte new "A'' lineup mobos also with the same features of this i think mid-range boards

[aloysius444]

wat happened to the cameraman?

[cal920c]

why does the 8 pin eps have 4 pins sealed off?

[vinicius401]

1:50 ROFL!

5:50 The moment you all have been waiting for! Linus is certainly a UFC fan

[SeanDIDK]

Mac users use firewire you fag. Also who fucking uses esata huh?

[R08M]

@SeanDIDK why would anyone that uses this board have anyhting to do with mac users dumbfuck?

[SeanDIDK]

WTF why do you half to be an asshole. Also maybe some hackintosh people would be interesed in this fucking motherboard. Fucking cunt

[R08M]

have? :P

silly goose

why would ur mac OS ppl want firewire when they have something better? (oh, will snow leopard even support usb 3.0?, probly incompatible, but dont listen to me i dont know shit about macs)

[Eientatsu]

For one thing apple is giving usb 3.0 support and probable phasing firewire out ie new macbooks becuase they realise it is old technology so you are right and you don't know shit about macs. I am both a linux and mac user and think you guys are ridiculous. Macs support firewire because firewire 800 is better than usb 2.0 they will move on to usb 3.0 or some better technology.

[enterZ]

this is windows, mac has nothing to do with this video. period.

[slagcity]

you talk about apple if it's a complete differtent system

apple computers are pc with a sticker on it, nothing less, nothing more

[glhhh]

hey linus it 4.8gb/s not 5.0 3.0usb just to let you know. lol :P

[intru3d]

you fired ur cameraman?

[tysonayt]

Just ordered this with some Corsair 1600MHz 4gb and Core i5 750. Can't wait til I get it! :D

[laservader1]

SOLD!

[Computenator]

''there 2 are sata 3gb/s...'' you should of said ''these are 2 sata 6gb/s...'' :D great motherboard 5/5!

[dialga293]

"It has a cpu socket..........WOW!"

[SysAdmin86851]

sweet USB 3.0 & 6 GB Sata !

upgrades to the board architecture makes me want to start another build more than anything ;)

what ever happened to the 3rd revision to the firewire technology ?

I think USB 3.0 killed it ;)

[InternetSandman]

well like he said who uses firewire? I don't see any point of it myself, considering everything I've seen uses either USB or eSATA. I guess a firewire port is good to have around anyway though, but I dunno why they aren't using firewire 800 if they're gonna include firewire at all.

[bigdima3]

@SysAdmin86851 in my opinion USB 3.0 and sata 6 are useless at the moment, when you will realise that u actually need those feature you can just buy a controller card :P

[r3za89]

LOL memory filled up

hahaha

[rock962000]

lol that's what I was just thinking too.

[HarpyTV]

heh you sorta look like Eminem :3

nice video

[tyuo9980]

yes it comes with sli bridge!!!...

the old pro doesnt... and the other boards which do were 2 expensive. but this is a good board too!

[1995firefly4dr]

why is the quality soo poor on this video ? not finished processing yet ?

[b0ss6769]

Nice nice unboxing m8.

gr8 features such as usb3 n sata3.

cheeers !

[oneinter]

looks good. Im waiting on updated motherboards for LGA1366.

[syafiqmilan]

3....

[CrossTechTips]

error occured wth, the one thing i actually wanted to look at because im about to buy it lol

[RandomGamer1911]
