EVGA a55 FTW for the win now you can see I've actually removed the shrink wrap because we did try to shoot this once before I am at home shooting this video today so someone was talking or something and the shot was totally ruined but I've got everything still in here we didn't get very far basically we've got the flexible black SLI Bridge inside for the uh for the accessories then we have the ECP V2 uh breakout board so to speak you've got your little pins on the back so you use a ribbon cable to connect this to your motherboard and then it gives you onboard power reset clear seos voltage adjustment buttons and then you've got an um a debug post code readout and then you've got jumpers to turn on and off different PCI E Lanes which is great for troubleshooting any sort of uh SLI uh graphics card difficulties you've got Molex TOA adapters then you've got four SATA cables here we've got uh two USB and one fire wire uh PC eye bracket then let's get down to the board oh not quite yet okay well there's our IO plate it's just like that and then here's the cable I was talking about this is your breakout cable for the uh for the ecpv2 okay then we've got our driver disc then we've got a quick start user guide so this is a oh this thing is huge so this is the visual guide for the board so labels all the different parts and gives you some Basics about the board then we have the users's manual normal thing okay now let's get down to the board itself so I'm just having my very first look at this it looks like evga's changed their color scheme quite a bit with their p-55 series motherboards I'm more used to seeing like a a green and black or a red and black color scheme out of EVGA and yeah we've got something totally different here today so let's just uh put this box like this okay there we go so we've got a little uh thing of desicant stuff then we've got a little plastic thing oh that's kind of nice so we've got a very shiny EVGA logo on uh what you can see is a very very weak looking sort of heat sink sort of looking thing that's very very cool looking then we have uh a warning oh a step-by-step instruction guide this is kind of cute on how to install your CPU there you go so that's actually taped right down to the CPU socket so that you can't in you can't get at the CPU socket without seeing it so let's have a look at the board itself now you've got three PCIe con uh 16 16x connectors you have two PCI connectors and one PCIe 1X connector you can see here we've got support for the usual thing with any p-55 motherboard we've got support for dual Channel DDR3 RAM our power connectors are in the usual places along the right hand edge of the board and on the top left corner of the board then for our chipset cooling you've got a little EVGA logo heat snc down here now in terms of connectivity we've got six SATA two ports on the on the edge of the board here then we've got on the back on the io Shield we've got looks like only six USB ports that's a little bit less than I was expecting PS2 onboard SOS clear we've got digital audio eat then we've got fire wire 2 GB Ethernet and 7.1 audio and uh thank you for oh wow no this is interesting okay up here on the top left which I actually didn't even notice before I'm just peeling the sticker off here you've actually got two 8 Pin uh EPS connectors so it seems that one of them yeah if your power supply has an extra eight pin connector plug both in for extreme overclocking so it's optional to plug that in but it looks like you can deliver a lot of juice to your CPU with this board anyway thank you for checking out the p-55 for the win"}
