Just how anything below AU$150 from ASUS looks like they used puke instead of silicon?

The only non-sexy bit the the P55 is the second PCIe slot, the RAM slots on the other two get filled anyway and I'll be damned if a single IDE header ruins the entire look of the board for you.

I thought the P55 had only a southbridge (or what amounts to one), why is there 2 heatsinks?

The one closest to the CPU is for the PCH, and the one in the old SB position is for the SATA controllers - they run damn hot.

certainly similar, but a necessary adaptation. Turbo memory is non volatile like a hard drive, and does have the random access time of RAM, but IIRC it's still not as fast (sequentially) as a HDD. The small SSD's that will go into an ONFI slot can be ~200MB/s.
