WEBVTT 00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:07.720 now I've looked at a fair number of p67 and h67 sandybridge ready motherboards 00:00:06.399 --> 00:00:15.039 over the last little while but I haven't looked at many matx ones so this is a 00:00:11.320 --> 00:00:17.199 reasonably high performance looking matx 00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:24.400 p67 motherboard supporting all the latest Intel LGA 1155 CPUs that is core 00:00:20.439 --> 00:00:26.840 i3s core i5s and core i7s it is a 00:00:24.400 --> 00:00:33.160 p67 chipset motherboard which means that it does not support the Onboard video of 00:00:28.720 --> 00:00:35.680 these CPUs but it does support their 00:00:33.160 --> 00:00:41.200 unlocked performance of the K series processor so you can overclock K series 00:00:38.480 --> 00:00:45.360 chips on this board we've got their epu chip which is for energy saving we've 00:00:42.680 --> 00:00:50.840 got SATA 3 6 gbit per second we've got USB 3.0 UEFI graphical BIOS and I think 00:00:49.760 --> 00:00:58.079 that's pretty much all they've got to say for themselves on the front let's see what ASUS has on the back so their 00:00:55.760 --> 00:01:04.040 TPU which is for more performance epu which is for Energy savings okay we've 00:01:00.879 --> 00:01:07.840 got some other stuff here what do we 00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:11.240 got H SAA 3 protect 00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:12.880 3.0 uh which is basically uh lower power 00:01:11.240 --> 00:01:17.240 consumption to protect the environment lower electromagnetic emissions to 00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:22.360 protect you and yeah hold on I'm thinking cuz I 00:01:20.119 --> 00:01:26.600 don't see it in here uh yeah something about um stabilizing power spikes to 00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:31.680 protect your motherboard although I don't think that's here but that's what protect the 00:01:29.560 --> 00:01:35.880 p with AI Suite 2 which is their software and the EFI BIOS let's have a 00:01:34.399 --> 00:01:39.240 look at the board like I said this looks like a pretty high performance board and 00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:43.759 comes with what appears to be a pretty high performance package so let's see 00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:48.320 we've got our users's guide we've got an ASUS sticker and we've also got an ASUS 00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:52.799 software DVD so throw that away download the latest from the ASUS website we've 00:01:50.079 --> 00:01:57.799 got two SATA 36 GB per second cables both of them right angle and two SATA 00:01:55.520 --> 00:02:00.920 two 3 GB per second cables those are both right angle as well please note 00:01:59.560 --> 00:02:05.719 other than the color difference there's no difference between those cables they 00:02:03.119 --> 00:02:09.080 are both fine so we've got Q connectors which are an easier way of plugging in 00:02:07.159 --> 00:02:12.520 your front panel connectors as well as your front USB and this is what made me 00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:17.319 think this is a performance board cuz they got their extra foam padding on the 00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:21.000 io Shield you only really see that you 00:02:17.319 --> 00:02:24.319 know on higher performance boards from 00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:26.000 Aus it's true I tell you all right we 00:02:24.319 --> 00:02:31.800 got their environmentally friendly packaging with only paper is good and 00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:36.400 we've got a motherboard all right pretty nice 00:02:33.760 --> 00:02:41.120 looking board overall actually I can say that with confidence right off the bat 00:02:38.440 --> 00:02:47.440 and you know I'm so happy to see more and more of this all the time PCI 00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:51.319 Express for one thing and high density 00:02:47.440 --> 00:02:53.080 of PCI Express slots on matx board so 00:02:51.319 --> 00:02:56.560 this board fully supports SLI and Crossfire X so this one runs it okay you 00:02:55.440 --> 00:03:01.280 know what I'll get to that later okay we've got our 1155 socket uh which is 00:03:00.000 --> 00:03:05.840 compatible like I said with all the latest processors don't try and put an 00:03:03.200 --> 00:03:10.040 1156 chip in there it will not work we've got an 8 Pin power connector we've 00:03:07.519 --> 00:03:14.080 got some pretty nice looking wave style mosfet heat sinks around that CPU socket 00:03:12.440 --> 00:03:16.920 they're nice and low profile though here you can see that from the side so you 00:03:15.560 --> 00:03:25.120 shouldn't have any trouble with any of your Tower heat sinks or whatever kind of heat sink you want to install on here 00:03:20.519 --> 00:03:28.159 we've got four sticks of dual Channel 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:30.640 DDR3 memory compatibility capability and 00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:35.400 this is the easy install kind so there's no clip here there's only a clip on this 00:03:32.799 --> 00:03:40.680 side okay so you just slot the memory in this side open up the clip slot it in 00:03:37.640 --> 00:03:42.159 this side clip is shut only one clip 00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:47.200 we've got a memo K button which should pretty much ensure that your board will 00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:51.280 boot with any memory no problem okay 00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:53.200 we've got their TPU switch we've got 00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:59.840 what on Earth is this oh trust platform module okay we've got our 24 pin power 00:03:56.439 --> 00:04:01.519 connector we've got hm okay I don't 00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:07.760 think this is actually an anti-surge SATA 6 gbit per second Port I think this 00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:08.920 is just a SATA 3 6 gbit per second port 00:04:07.760 --> 00:04:14.640 and they're talking about the anti- surge technology that is part of uh 00:04:11.720 --> 00:04:20.639 protect 3.0 okay next we have a BIOS chip then we've got two SATA 3 6 GB per 00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:26.199 second ports four SATA 2 3 GB per second ports a chipset cooler and finally we've 00:04:23.320 --> 00:04:33.360 got our front panel connectors four USB 2.0 front panel headers we've got a a 00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:37.440 fire wire front panel header a is that 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:40.160 really a parallel port 00:04:37.440 --> 00:04:45.880 header fascinating okay and then and then we've got aha 00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:50.280 okay we're down to the PCI Express slot so I love it they' they killed PCI so 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:56.199 this is a high-end board no PCI done boom we've got a PCIe 16x slot that runs 00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:57.520 at full 16x PCIe 1X slot that will be 00:04:56.199 --> 00:05:04.479 covered as soon as you put your high performance dual slot graphics card in here we've got a PCIe 8X slot so this 00:05:03.080 --> 00:05:08.199 one only runs at 8X if you put something in it and then 00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:14.440 this one will run at 8X as well so it's either 16x or it's 8X 8X so full support 00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:19.639 for Crossfire and SLI remember PCIe 8X is enough for Crossfire and SLI this guy 00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:25.319 right here only runs at PCIe 4X actually hold on let me look at this 00:05:23.080 --> 00:05:30.160 yes good okay so this one only runs at PCIe 4X and that one's running off the 00:05:27.919 --> 00:05:34.240 South Bridge not off the PCI controller on the CPU so it's lower performance if 00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:38.199 you are running Crossfire or SLI use these two slots now what's funny is this 00:05:35.919 --> 00:05:41.680 board doesn't include an SLI Bridge so you may have to buy one but they are 00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:45.000 available so don't worry too much about it remember Crossfire bridges come with 00:05:43.960 --> 00:05:49.840 your video card not with your motherboard we got two PS2 ports one 00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:56.360 Mouse One keyboard we've got two USB 3.0 ports optical audio out we've got four 00:05:52.520 --> 00:05:59.680 USB 2.0 ports we've got fire wire eat 00:05:56.360 --> 00:06:01.199 and gigabit Ethernet with 7.1 audio to 00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:06.880 round out this board thank you for checking out my unboxing of the ASUS p8p 00:06:04.000 --> 00:06:12.039 67m Pro don't forget to subscribe to lus Tech tips
