Need best P67 board!

[bro20000]

Am sick of my MSI P67A-GD65 it killed one of my Vertex2 SSD and now Ram slot one has died on me! Have had enough! The board works with ram in slot 2 and 4 but bus speed i cannot change!

Am interested in theses 3 boards!

Asus Maximus IV Extreme Intel P67
Gigabyte P67A-UD7 Intel P67
Asrock Fatal1ty Intel P67

Any ideas which one to get!

The UD7 seems to be doing very good, people hitting 5.7+ pretty easily if their chips will do it. Nice color scheme as well.

I would go with a Dlx or UD5, more than enough headroom... high end boards are insanely priced...

Does anyone know the best board for low VDroop!

Right ... And even P8P67 Pro give the same than P8P67 Deluxe ...

Am going to go for a Asus Maximus IV Extreme Intel P67 seems to be clocking memory quite well and it got 2200oc option which my ram sticks are!
Is there still a recall on the board or is it all sorted! And does anyone know when the ATi 6990 is out looking to upgrade most of my system!

I've a P8P67-EVO and it has 0 vDroop, also with LLC set to xtreme it'll add more volts then the ones set.

Thank mate i quess the Asus Maximus IV Extreme has the same no vdroop to!

Asus Maximus IV Extreme Intel P67 , period.
.. if you're looking for the current best of the best P67.

This board is bringing sexy back..



Military grade means: The capacitors, chokes and MOSFETs all adhere to an independent ISO and IEC/IECQ standard that stipulates certain requirements suitable for military application. While the Sabertooth P67 uses solid capacitors and alloy chokes for its VRMs.

Asus uses a stress test that repeatedly heats and then cools the board from -40C to 85C and uses a range of military-grade components and server-level testing. For example, rather than the usual burn-in test that uses a temperature of 45C and a humidity of 80 per cent, Asus uses the server-grade 55C temperature and 90 per cent humidity test.

I dont like the look of that board i prefer the asus maxium look in red!

[Eldonko]

Cant say I agree with that. UD7 is as good or better and will run 16x in 2 slots

So now you don't have to have a X chipset in order to run Crossfire/SLI with no loss of bandwidth?

I agree, UD7 looks and probably is awesome, but if I was upgrading I'd probably go after P67-UD5, you get less phases and less sata/usb ports though, but it isn't priced insanely high.
I can't stand the clips on dimm slots Asus utilizes since P55.

Cant comment on the other boards, but the only difference it seems between Asrock Delx6 and Fatality ..is the color scheme, and the lack of molex power conn for pci-ex slots on the fatality, also fatality has l33t gam3r pic on every uefi background :_ ..so for 30-40$ more, its not worth it imo.
I went with the xtreme6, high end board in a mid range price point.

[Eldonko]

Only UD7 will give you 16x bw in 2 slots, UD5 will not. Keep that in mind if you want to run SLI. Difference would probably be very minor however.

[Erklat]

How does it do that? If it utilizes NF200 the link between PCIex and it works at 16x, but NF200 to the on-die controller is still only 8x then.
I'm probably wrong, that's how it works on mine.

Am looking to run 2x580 or 2x6990!

Then you have picked a wrong time to upgrade. Pairing two of such high bandwidth cards with a P chipset is something you simply don't do

It will do me till z68 chipset arrive!

[Eldonko]

NF200 doubles the BW to 16x by splitting the pcie lanes. Also all the pcie lanes from the processor are fed directly into the NF200 because ud7 has a secondary PCI-E bus for usb 3 and sata 6.

Some prefer redheads, some brunettes

Why? Are you planning on getting rid of your GTX 580?

Z68 is just a hybrid H67/P67 mainly for overclockers who don't want to use a discrete graphics card

My new system soon to be next week!

Any feedback!

I'm really happy with my Asus P8P67 Deluxe , but you can get the pro or evo to save $$ once you get use to the BIOS it's cake.

I'm curious about this board, but at this time I didn't notice any review on it's OC ability vs other P67 boards. I would be maybe a good option for my as a folding rig. (100% full load 24hr/7)
