    I dig the color scheme Got a MSI P55-GD65 myself and I always had black mainboards. Although I prefer orange/black (ASUS P5W-DH) :drool:
    Notice any grammar or spelling mistakes? Feel free to correct me! Thanks

    Why do you need two PS/2 ports? Almost all PS/2 mice these days are worthless, and it still has a single PS/2 port so you can run old school classic keyboards like IBM Model Ms.

    USB uses resources, benching with PS/2 I believe can sometimes give higher points.

    At least, that's what I've heard.

    is this for the new 1155s? Will these also run the high end sb chipsets which will come out in 2011??

    Another thing I find funny is AMD/Intel would snipe any of our Moms on a grocery run if it meant good quarterly results, and you are forever whining about what feser did?

    I think the reason it comes down to aesthetics now is that all mobos are pretty much the same now and the same price......

    Are you sure? In the hundreds of hours under subzero I have never insulated that area?

    Question Where are the video outputs? Why P67?

    I may have a misconception about socket 1155, but don't all cpu's for this socket have onboard video? If so, why does only the matx version have video outputs?

    I now see that they are using the P 'series' chipsets which don't support video output. Correct?

    Maybe they will release some S1155 chips w/o onboard video. That would be nice for overclockers.

    Indeed, P67 miss FDI so it won't support integrated graphics. H67 will. But IGP won't affect overclocking since it has separate (from cpu) bclk multiplier.

    Sure it uses resources, but it only made a difference back in 2001...
