1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:08,360
okay well I think we've finally made our way to our last assus p55 board to unbox

2
00:00:04,799 --> 00:00:09,960
we've got the p7p 55d deluxe board so

3
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:14,920
what's the difference between this and all the other boards well it's got 16

4
00:00:12,639 --> 00:00:18,720
plus three phase power for the CPU so that's better than any of the other

5
00:00:16,119 --> 00:00:22,840
assus boards now you've also got support now the Evo has this too but you've got

6
00:00:21,039 --> 00:00:28,800
support for Drive expert which is an automatic uh Drive backup solution so

7
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:30,679
there's that uh other relevant stuff not

8
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:37,079
really much of anything in there but let's get this board open okay so all

9
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:41,000
right you've got the turbo V remote so this is a hardware level overclocking

10
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:45,280
button so you can actually increase decrease your bus speed and you've got a

11
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:49,239
few different presets uh turbo key can turn it on so that plugs into the back

12
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:52,800
of your IO Shield speaking of IO Shields here's the io Shield so there's the

13
00:00:50,719 --> 00:00:57,440
turbo connector spot there we go pretty cool so then you've got your manual your

14
00:00:55,239 --> 00:01:03,519
drivers and applications DVD uh then we've got okay okay six SATA

15
00:01:01,079 --> 00:01:10,200
cables three right angle three straight then we've got USB and E SATA IO bracket

16
00:01:06,960 --> 00:01:12,240
then we've got an SLI Bridge uh the Q

17
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:18,400
connector things for USB and for your front case connectors then we've got an

18
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:20,799
IDE cable let's get this board out so

19
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:26,119
you will notice that it looks very similar to all of ausa's other p55

20
00:01:24,159 --> 00:01:30,400
boards they've gone with a fairly unified looking theme and let's see if

21
00:01:28,079 --> 00:01:34,320
we can find the difference between this and their other board so first thing

22
00:01:32,479 --> 00:01:39,159
let's have a look at the general layout here's your two slots for Crossfire and

23
00:01:36,159 --> 00:01:41,880
SLI so it's 8X 8X if you're running two

24
00:01:39,159 --> 00:01:46,560
cards and then this one will run at 4X Electrical uh off of the chipset which

25
00:01:44,399 --> 00:01:51,840
has a different looking cooler on it this is actually pretty sweet looking

26
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:53,719
it's very very shiny and nice yeah I

27
00:01:51,840 --> 00:02:00,200
kind of like that anyway so then we've got 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 nine SATA ports so

28
00:01:57,119 --> 00:02:01,439
we've got six on a right angle here and

29
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:08,399
then three down at the bottom of the board you've got your onboard power and reset switches and then you've got your

30
00:02:05,439 --> 00:02:13,120
mem switch and then up here you've got little toggle switches for overvolting

31
00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:17,640
the RAM the IMC that's the memory controller or the uncore and then the

32
00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:20,400
CPU so you probably won't be playing around with those unless you're an

33
00:02:18,640 --> 00:02:25,040
extreme overclocker you've got your power connectors in the usual places 24

34
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:28,440
pin on the right hand Edge and eight pin up at the top left and they're using

35
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:34,160
their actually there's a heat pipe in between their cool uh like ice Fortress

36
00:02:31,519 --> 00:02:38,560
looking uh pwm coolers so there you can see there's your 16 phase power around

37
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:42,599
your CPU socket here's the connector for that turbo Turbo connector thing in

38
00:02:40,319 --> 00:02:47,159
Miggy and then that I guess comes out a little place at the back and then here

39
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:50,840
we go let's have a look at the back iio so you've got your PS2 keyboard and

40
00:02:48,879 --> 00:02:57,120
mouse there's your clear Simo switch then you've got eight USB ports digital

41
00:02:53,280 --> 00:03:00,720
audio out uh 2 GB Ethernet one fire wire

42
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:02,680
and 7.1 audio conspicuously missing is e

43
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:06,200
satus support it's very strange for a premium board like this anyway thank you

44
00:03:04,640 --> 00:03:11,000
