Finally also gigabyte moved to EFI BIOS
nice looking board, but I'll wait for UD5 or even UD4 version :)
So what about OC capabilities compared to P67 :confused:
Need some higher quality pictures.
its not the same market segment, but your OC shouldn't be any different. Just with this you can OC your CPU and iGP, as well as have SSD caching, its like a side grade to most of us, but for people buying new its not.Quote:

100% same PCB as P67 UD7, they just slapped the Z68 on the board and flashed it with another BIOS :rofl:
No videoports :(
I wonder how long it will be before it's available for the P67's.:rolleyes:Quote:

I guess we can call this one confirmed...
:down: only real reason to go with an z68 in my opinion.Quote:

yeap it's true,no more p67 boards for gigibut,very interesting to quit P67 after a couple of months...
If Gigabyte have moved to EFI, does that mean gimped 3DMark01 performance?
Well, before Z68 we had H61 for garbage boards, H67 for value boards, P67 for everything above, so if they can get the price right with Z68 there is really no need for P67 anymore.Quote:

glad I waited to move from p55 lol
Wouldn't your money be better spent on a larger ssd? I think that it's safe to say that most enthusiasts will be using a discrete video card anyways.Quote:

Nvidia PhysX ? i seriously doubt you can use it for PhysX.... maybe for OpenCL or direct compute based physic .. but that's all . ( maybe troubled by the way you have spell Physic ). + I really doubt this "IGP" have enough compute power for be helpfull...
