Full review for ASUS P8P67 DELUXE with Intel Core i5 2400

The next generation for INTEL – LGA 1155, with replacement LGA 1156 soon. N.D.A will be end on 2011 Jan 6, first day on CeBIT.

But, Taiwan is a strange place. Although Box haven’t come out, lot of ES came out already. This time not like P55 chipset, Motherboard faster than CPU…

Well, mobo(ASUS P8P67 DELUXE) buy from Taiwan Guanghwa, CPU(INTEL Core i5 2400) buy from Yahoo Bid… let’s do test for INTEL P67 Chipset.

P8 stand for P67 chipset, and P7 stand for P55 chipset.

Make a quite conspicuous in appearance. Black with green, different with P7.

Yes, it’s quite conspicuous.

Make it clear.

Intel P67 chipset, make sure using the correct cpu with LGA 1155.

Other Chipset for this mobo -
REALTEK ALC 889 for sound
VIA VT6315N for IEEE 1394
REALTEK 8111E and INTEL WG82579V for Lan.

PLX for PCI-E. ICS controller chipset part number is 0630893.

Front USB 3.0 also taking NEC.
http://pic.xfastest.com/pertonas/P8P67D/17.jpg


P67 chipset give up PCI slot, so must use Asmedia ASM1083 for it.

SATA port. Deep blue and white for SATA 6Gb/s, SATA II using light blue.

Dram LED, Memory button and TPU function.
http://pic.xfastest.com/pertonas/P8P67D/22.jpg


Don’t try Overclock too much with P67 chipset and No K CPU, so one EPS enough for it.

P8P67 Deluxe give you 16 + 2 PWM.

Let do some test with the following platform -

INTEL CORE i5 2400
ASUS P8P67 DELUXE
ASUS ENGTX 580
CORSAIR VENEANGE DDR3 1600MHz 4GB X 2
Thermaltake XT 575W
Thermaltake FRIO
OCZ Vertex2 60GB

CPU-Z. C1E, C3E, C6E all switch off in BIOS, only keep the Turbo Boost, let the i5 2400 go
through 3.4GHz.

Horrible read write for memory.

Compare with Kinston DDR3 2000 CL 9-10-9-27 on ASUS X58 SABERTOOTH.

wPrime, also quite horrible in P67.

Well, we can’t adjust Multipier on NO K series, and only adjust a little bit for the Bckl in P67. For the stable running benchmark, I let my i5 2400 run in 106.5 MHz.

Cinebench R11.5, WOW ~ kill the i7 960.
http://pic.xfastest.com/pertonas/P8P67D/r111.JPG


The most for my i5 2400 - 107.4
http://pic.xfastest.com/pertonas/P8P67D/1074.JPG


Yes, quite fun for P67 chipset. we can’t do extreme overclock without K series. Memory bandwidth is faster than triple channel platform X58 chipset, because INTEL change the way for memory.

Less than 10 days for NDA.

Wait for my i7 2600k and ASUS ROG Maximus IV EXTREME.

Provide a benchmark review for ASUS P8P67 DELUXE and Core i5 2400, thanks.

nice work... I like the platform, a lot... for daily usage it's a blast :)

yes ~
it become my working platform a few days ...
but now
I change back to X58 again ;)

any aida64 bench?

Asus using almost the same theme as gigabyte on this board hehe, Nice review seems like it beats the 920 in pretty much every bench.. Cant wait to see what comes in 2011, gonna be fun!!

Yeah what he said :up::up:

Nice review, at what clocks was the 920? And will the i5 2400 be much faster than a Q9550 @ 4.0ghz?

920 in 2.6GHz
sorry ..
I don't have LGA 775 to compare with it :p:

Thx for sharing...a part from the board that is really nice, which lenses where you using for taking pics? :D

2400 only 4 cores
920 4 core 8 threads

so ~~ :p:

picture no7 is broken
thanks for the review... :toast:
doesnt look like digital btw... and only 2 phases for vtt... hows memory ocing? hmmm

maximus run in 22XX MHz

hah, do i know you? :D
thanks :toast:

2250 is not bad...
whats the max you ever got out of that kit of memory?
how is efficiency compared to 1156 and 1366? about the same?

and i just came back to post, 106 is stable? thats not bad, well, for 1155 its not bad :D a 6% overclock is still better than only a 3% overclock... but i doubt this will make a difference in benchmarks, not enough to make people choose one board over another... but its better have it than not so its a nice feature... :D

maybe you forgot ~
when you still in FOXCONN with peterwei ;)
I still have your MSN :rofl:

stable in 106.5
this kit running in LGA 1366 with 24XXMHz in air :p:

You already tried 0905 bios Pertonas ? Having some boot issues with my board (original bios)

issues like what rebooting, freezing? if you could explain them i would appreciate it. And can you tell me where can i get the bios 0905?

thanks for nice review:)
one question : are the cooler mount holes identical to 1156 and 1366 sockets?...so that we dont have to buy new cpu coolers again(i have the VenomousX and dont really want another)

thanks for nice review:)

Using the VenomousX here mate, no worries fit's like a glove :)

I thought 2133 was max for SB? or is that only on some mobos?

@petronas the file i downloaded from your post is 0907, the one i have now is 0905. Is there any major difference?
I already have 0905, thank you anyways :D

which one is better in your opinion?

use 0907 right now
don't feel much difference between 0905 :p:

waiting for 2600K....
taiwan still can't buy yet...... :mad:

Non "K" CPUs are not the way for budget overclockers

I'm waiting for mine too. I'll be waiting for your tests so i can compare results with you.

I will be using the Deluxe. I never enjoyed motherboards with NF200. Let me see if this one changes my mind. :D

NF200 no use for CPU overclocking ~
only for VGA ~

well ~
I also will use DELUXE run 2600K
let compare it :up:

Hi can you please let me know how many vga did you use for SFIV benchamrk ?

from the scores it sees you used 2.... is it right ?

570 and 580

the mem benches look good

Best thing about SB imo, killer PI scores..

latencies are off the charts. i am lovin it.

@petronas

Do you have any problem with your gtx 570 / gtx 580 with drivers 263.09?
What happens to me is that the driver stops and then recovers. What is interesting is that it only happens when i have Asus Suite II running. No problems playing games or anything like it. Just with the asus suite BOOM :D

Asus suite works fine, but sometimes when i'm browsing on the web it simply stops.

maybe god make a joke with you ;)

I have to give a huge thanks to nvidia for their great work with their drivers. It was the sound driver that was giving me problems.

Very well done :up: thanks for review
