Thanks again guys...glad you all like it :toast:

Excellent review! Any chance you'll do the same for Firewire 3200 when that comes out (well, if it ever does, anyway)? I have high expectations for that. :D

Thank you for posting! I will prolly do a little recap of you'r results on my blog. Great work :)

Thanks again guys...I'm working on a follow-up article now, stay tuned :toast:

Thanks for review! Great job.

Thanks for share this results :up:

What was the performance of SLI or CrossFire on the GA-P55A-UD6 with USB 3 or SATA 6 enabled? How much of performance hit did you see with the video card running at x8 instead of x16 when overclocking?

The performance of the USB3.0 when SLI or CrossFire is enabled would be reflected in my results under the "non-Turbo" label.

I did not test the performance of video cards running at x8 instead of x16 because it has been done many times before, and my results would have reflected common knowledge. ;)
