00:00:00,719 --> 00:00:09,280
Okay, so today we've got the P7P 55D Pro. We actually can't get over to our

2
00:00:05,759 --> 00:00:11,519
normal unboxing uh outside place because

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:15,679
uh there's some junk there. And so we're doing the unboxing on the hood of my

4
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:18,920
car. So here we go. We got the IO shield and then let's keep going with the

5
00:00:17,279 --> 00:00:25,519
accessories here. We've got the users guide. Then we've got the uh DVD for

6
00:00:22,760 --> 00:00:31,679
your drivers and your utilities, all that good stuff. Okay. Then we have an

7
00:00:27,519 --> 00:00:34,640
ESATA USB IO bracket. Then we've got an

8
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:40,559
IDE cable. Then we've got their convenient Q connectnect. Then we have

9
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:45,040
four SATA ports. It's got four SATA ports. So four SATA cables. And now

10
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:50,079
let's get to the board itself here. So ASUS uses environmentally friendly uh no

11
00:00:48,079 --> 00:00:54,160
foam packaging. So they have like no foam and no uh no packing peanuts,

12
00:00:52,559 --> 00:00:57,520
nothing like that. It's all sort of cardboard. So, let's get the board

13
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:01,199
itself out. It's kind of a sharpl looking board. I can't say the color

14
00:00:59,039 --> 00:01:05,840
scheme is my favorite, but it all sort of matches. So, let's start with what

15
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:12,400
we've got in terms of our ports. So, we've got three PCI Express 16x slots at

16
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:16,640
8X, 8X, and 4X. And please note that this one will run at 16x if there's

17
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:21,280
nothing installed here. As with all P-55 boards, we've got support for dual

18
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:25,920
channel DDR3 memory. You've got a fairly beefy 12 plus twophase power design,

19
00:01:24,320 --> 00:01:29,920
which is really nice to see, especially because this board is a relatively

20
00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:34,000
lowcost board compared to some of the more premium ones like the Maximus and

21
00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:39,119
all that kind of stuff. Over here, we've got seven SATA ports, which seems like

22
00:01:36,320 --> 00:01:43,840
kind of a weird number of SATA ports, except that if you look at the back,

23
00:01:41,439 --> 00:01:47,520
which is right about here, you can see that we've got an E SATA. So, that would

24
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:51,200
probably be where our other port is. And also looking at the rest of the back,

25
00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:57,040
we've got our PS2 keyboard and mouse. We have overall eight USB ports, digital

26
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:59,759
audio, FireWire, gigabit Ethernet, and

27
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:04,399
7.1 audio. In terms of layout, the board is quite quite well done. You've got

28
00:02:02,079 --> 00:02:08,000
your 24 pin over here. And then you've got your 8 pin up at the top of the

29
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,720
board over here with the little cover. And then you've got kind of a cool

30
00:02:09,679 --> 00:02:15,520
actually, if I could get Yeah, cameraman's checking out that heat sink. And that's So that's your chipset heat

31
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:21,440
sink. And then I want you to check these out from the side. These are actually kind of a unique design. I really I

32
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:25,760
really like that. It's just sort of looks feels kind of random and icically.

33
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:33,840
I don't know. It seems like a trivial thing to like about a board, but there you go. Anyway, so that's the P7P 55D

34
00:02:30,319 --> 00:02:33,840
Pro. Thanks for checking it out.
