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

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

00:00:08.719 --> 00:00:15.440
comes with uh mostly boring accessories we got an IO Shield okay we have those

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

00:00:17.400 --> 00:00:24.439
have four SATA cables a couple SATA tamox power adapters a ribbon cable or

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

00:00:25.720 --> 00:00:31.960
have to go fast drivers and utilities MSI extras I think it's like Norton and

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:35.879
something hard drive backup user guide quick installation guide which looks

00:00:33.480 --> 00:00:41.200
absolutely huge and complicated we'll figure that out later uh SLI Crossfire

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

00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:51.039
user guide then we have a little USB uh

00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:54.239
back plate thing okay so let's get the environmentally friendly packaging out

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

00:00:56.000 --> 00:01:01.399
part so on the board we've got the OC

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:06.320
button which is like a one button overclocking utility it's a pretty nice

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

00:01:07.560 --> 00:01:12.640
right here and then you can change your base clock with the plus and minus

00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:17.119
buttons kind of cool for such a an inexpensive board you've got seven SATA

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

00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:28.560
an 1156 board so we got PS2 digital audio eight USB ports two Ethernet one

00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:30.479
eat no no eat we have fire wire okay so

00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:34.040
there's no eat that's okay so it supports Crossfire and SLI now

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

00:01:36.280 --> 00:01:42.000
superpipe Dr Moss which is MSI's mosfet

00:01:39.439 --> 00:01:44.960
solution it uses fewer phasers phases but the switching frequency is faster so

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

00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:55.719
which I have never opened one before

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

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

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:09.879
memory all the uh appropriate power adapter oh here's a cool feature you can

00:02:06.759 --> 00:02:12.000
read your voltages using this little uh

00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:17.000
interface right here very cool so this is the V checkpoints awesome awesome

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

00:02:20.760 --> 00:02:26.519
