Many thanks for the post, nice looking board
efi or bios doesn't matter to me, just give me faster bootup times! I want to see the vrm section without the heatsinks! digital vrms like the ones on dfi boards haven't been seen for a long time.
Don't digital PWM or WRM or whatever gets stupid hot?
Definitely do want.
Its younger brother the P8P67 Pro is also showcased here:

Not so cool though but definitely worth a look...
You can see also here our preview of P8P67 Pro and P8P67 Deluxe with lots of board shot and EFI BIOS shots
High resolution pictures of Maximus IV Extreme and Sabertooth P67 also available :)
It doesn't use BIOS ;)
Yes and no. It's not just a new interface, EFI drops all the legacy support dating back to the IBM AT from 1981 which we no longer need. I'm more excited about the possibilities of EFI than of Bulldozer or Sandy Bridge right now.
Imagine UFI combined with SSDs the speed of RAM a few years from now backed by a CPU with enough power to support everything... Switch on your PC and the first thing you see after your monitor comes to life is the Windows desktop :D
EFI looks nice, any news when these boards will hit the market?
The boot times are indeed faster, in 1-2 seconds you are in EFI interface :)
i can't wait for 1155 era
Is the NDA over ? Why do we always need to sign stuff and why on earth do we adhere to it lol... luckily they adapted the Star T**** theme with different colours. The press boards were darn fugly ( Sorry G)
There's the bit I wrote about it here: http://www.vortez.co.uk/articles_pag...seminar,2.html
It's nothing new really but ASUS have amalgamated both for ease of use. The only new thing is the DIGI+ VRM implementation.
all brand P67 chipset with EFI bios....cuz EFI bios from Intel not from motherboard brand...:)
gigabyte use same bios as on the old mainboards..
