Benchmark reviews / U.S.A. / 2009.Sep. |

1.The full depth of GIGABYTE's proprietary product features is well worth the asking price, and the TPM encryption security is at the front of this list. Considering the improved real-world performance against X58-Express solutions, you can't possibly go wrong with the Gigabyte GA-P55-UD6 LGA1156 motherboard.
2.GIGABYTE has achieved near-perfect component layout on the P55-Express platform. The construction is what you would expect from a top-class premium product: second to none. |

This is the world's first true 24 phase power board. With 24 Phase Power, the only board with 24 Phase power in existence, it's going to be hard to top the UD6 board for extreme overclocking, and with the ease of operation and setup it is also good for the less tech savvy.
The GIGABYTE GA-P55-UD6 is without a doubt a winner when it comes to overclocking and features. Overclocking on the board was a dream, operation was stable and we didn't find much of anything on the board we didn't love. |

24 power phases design : On the topic of
24 power phases, I have been vocal about saying that I did
not necessarily think "more is better." And I still
don't. But undoubtedly GIGABYTE engineers have done a great
job of implementing the 24 power phases and I have to feel
that we saw this well executed power design shine in our Torture
Testing.
Overclocking : The GIGABYTE P55-UD6 looks
to be a true enthusiast motherboard giving us the highest BCLK
rates we have seen yet on a P55 chipset motherboard using our
Intel Core i5 processor. Automatic voltage regulation with
this board is nothing short of sweet. It seems very conservative
with the voltage. Keep in mind that in order to reach 210MHz
BCLK I had to do very little. |

The distribution of the components is quite good (like colors) like high quality products even though the IDE connector. One of the most relevant details we can find is the 24 phase power integrated, so 24 stages near the CPU socket in order to provide greater stability and degree overclocking on the system. Very good ability to overclock. Excellent performance.Bios complete and informative. Supports up to 2600 MHz DDR3 memory (2200 MHZ audited). It features lots of technologies such as Smart 6, DES 2, Auto Green, Smart TPM, Smart and BIOS Dual-Dual-LAN Full back panel. Supports ATI Crossfire X and NVIDIA SLI. |

Overclocking performance was the best
we've seen yet. It is overclocking champions.The are around
the LGA1156 socket is the most packed we've ever personally
seen, with a whopping 24 phase of power available for the CPU.
Each of the PWMs around this are treated to their own heatsink,
incredibly styled in a race-car theme that looks very sexy.The
BIOS was incredibly clear and the board felt more solid than
three-foot lead plating. |

Overclocking wise, this board is simply
amazing. Performance wise, the board did well in benchmarks.It's
uniqueness also include 6 DIMM slots compared to 4 dimms on
most P55 implementations.Another uniqueness it support TPM
and it allows one to lock the protected data remotely using
a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone. Of course there is the SMART
6 - dual bios, quick boot, quick boost, recovery recorder and
time lock. |

As usual for GIGABYTE offers one of the best Motherboards we
can find it, either for the intense player, that only set up
for play, or for extreme Overclockers, is looking to extract
every last MHZ of components. Excellent for overclockers , 6
slot of memory, Ultra Durable 3, 24 power phase, smart 6. |
