00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:06,919
I got a pretty cool package in the mail today it's a p-55 gd65 motherboard from

2
00:00:04,359 --> 00:00:10,920
MSI Let's uh do a quick unboxing here and show you all the cool accessories it

3
00:00:08,719 --> 00:00:15,440
comes with uh mostly boring accessories we got an IO Shield okay we have those

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:19,320
little things that help you plug in your USB if you have a really old case we

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:24,439
have four SATA cables a couple SATA tamox power adapters a ribbon cable or

6
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:27,760
two floppy and IDE I don't have a lot of space on my SD card so we're going to

7
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:31,960
have to go fast drivers and utilities MSI extras I think it's like Norton and

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:35,879
something hard drive backup user guide quick installation guide which looks

9
00:00:33,480 --> 00:00:41,200
absolutely huge and complicated we'll figure that out later uh SLI Crossfire

10
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:48,960
Bridges uh MSI winky I don't know what this is but yeah MSI winky p-55 gd65

11
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:51,039
user guide then we have a little USB uh

12
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:54,239
back plate thing okay so let's get the environmentally friendly packaging out

13
00:00:52,559 --> 00:01:00,000
of here and let's get this board out cuz that's the uh that's the interesting

14
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:01,399
part so on the board we've got the OC

15
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:06,320
button which is like a one button overclocking utility it's a pretty nice

16
00:01:03,399 --> 00:01:09,119
looking PCB uh OC Genie there that's what it's called it's a little button

17
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:12,640
right here and then you can change your base clock with the plus and minus

18
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:17,119
buttons kind of cool for such a an inexpensive board you've got seven SATA

19
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:21,479
ports right here along with oh let's show the back the back slot so this is

20
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:28,560
an 1156 board so we got PS2 digital audio eight USB ports two Ethernet one

21
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:30,479
eat no no eat we have fire wire okay so

22
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:34,040
there's no eat that's okay so it supports Crossfire and SLI now

23
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:39,439
I've ripped the sticker so we have to do it in one shot now and then you've got

24
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:42,000
superpipe Dr Moss which is MSI's mosfet

25
00:01:39,439 --> 00:01:44,960
solution it uses fewer phasers phases but the switching frequency is faster so

26
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:53,200
they're saying it's quite a bit better than what other people are using and then here we have our 1156 pin socket

27
00:01:49,799 --> 00:01:55,719
which I have never opened one before

28
00:01:53,200 --> 00:02:00,479
but okay that's not working at all there we go so that's socket 1156 I'll get the

29
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:04,719
cameraman to have a look at it so there you have it you've got dual channnel

30
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:09,879
memory all the uh appropriate power adapter oh here's a cool feature you can

31
00:02:06,759 --> 00:02:12,000
read your voltages using this little uh

32
00:02:09,879 --> 00:02:17,000
interface right here very cool so this is the V checkpoints awesome awesome

33
00:02:14,959 --> 00:02:22,680
feature so thank you for checking out my blog on the MSI p55 gd65 oh yeah and

34
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:26,519

35
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:30,440
