00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:07.839
so with me here today I have the Gigabyte p55 ud3r so this is their

00:00:05.560 --> 00:00:12.960
second from the bottom as far as launch p55 boards go it does still include

00:00:10.559 --> 00:00:16.240
Ultra durable 3 and smart 6 technology so uh let's have a look at the accessory

00:00:14.879 --> 00:00:22.199
package that comes with it here we've got the users's manual uh oh which has

00:00:19.680 --> 00:00:26.560
the io shield in it here so there we go then we've got the driver and utility

00:00:24.039 --> 00:00:32.200
DVD then we've got a little Gigabyte sticker then we've got the smart 6

00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:34.960
manual the regular users manual four

00:00:32.200 --> 00:00:38.800
SATA cables and one IDE cable so it's a fairly standard uh accessory package

00:00:37.399 --> 00:00:43.200
we've got here so there's our little divider let's get the board pulled out

00:00:40.920 --> 00:00:50.039
here it actually looks uh looks not too shabby for a for a lower is end board

00:00:47.440 --> 00:00:54.120
now what you may have noticed about the front of the box and I'm going to close

00:00:51.440 --> 00:01:00.199
it up here for just a second is that there is no support on this board for

00:00:57.440 --> 00:01:06.760
Crossfire or SLI so even though we've got two 16x PCI Express slots actually

00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:12.200
we do have Crossfire support sorry sorry no SLI that's the difference okay so

00:01:10.600 --> 00:01:16.280
we're also missing some other higher end features like for example all the SATA 2

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:21.360
ports are not the right angle ports they're the old older style sticking out

00:01:18.040 --> 00:01:24.000
of the board ports like all P p55 boards

00:01:21.360 --> 00:01:29.960
we've got an LGA 1156 socket here we've CAU two four Banks of DDR3 dual Channel

00:01:27.400 --> 00:01:35.439
RAM slots you can see we've actually got a fairly beefy sort of um vrm solution

00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:40.640
as well as vrm cooling solution so that's an 8-phase power setup and then

00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:43.399
let's have a look at the uh oh right uh connector placement so you've got your

00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:47.560
eight pin up at the top left of the board and you got your 24 pin in the

00:01:45.399 --> 00:01:51.320
desirable spot along the very top right of the board so let's have a look at the

00:01:49.040 --> 00:01:55.600
I/O panel you've got a pretty standard IO panel here you've got 10 USB ports

00:01:53.960 --> 00:02:00.600
that's really nice to see you've got one of those cool keyboard mouse PS2 combo

00:01:58.159 --> 00:02:06.119
ports you've got digital audio and then a couple ESAT ports 1 GB Ethernet and a

00:02:03.719 --> 00:02:11.560
7.1 audio so you can tell that it is a bit of a a younger brother to the ud4p

00:02:09.399 --> 00:02:14.760
but it is quite feature complete especially if you want to run Crossfire

00:02:13.160 --> 00:02:21.200
you can actually load quite a high-end system on this board so thank you for

00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:21.200
checking out the p-55 ud3r
