Default [TPU] ASUS P7P55 EVO Detailed

Quote:
ASUS' P7P55 series includes the company's mainstream-thru-premium motherboards based on Intel P55 chipset, supporting LGA-1156 socket processors. Following the recent exposé of its little sibling the P7P55 Pro, XFastest took the higher-end P7P55 EVO for a photo-shoot. This motherboard retains its lesser sibling's feature-set for the most part, except for additional connectivity. The CPU is powered by a 14-phase power circuit. Additional power management is provided by the ASUS EPU chip. The expansion slots include three PCI-Express x16 slots.

The first two arrange as (x8, x8) electrically, while the third one is electrical x4. Two PCI-E x1 and two legacy PCI slots make for the rest of the expansion. The connectivity options of this board will include support for SATA III. Apart from the six SATA ports the P55 PCH provides, an additional Marvell 88SE9123 two-port PCI-E SATA III controller is present, which also provides an IDE connector. Apart from the 8-channel audio, Firewire, and 14 USB ports in all, there are two gigabit Ethernet controllers. More pictures can be found at the source.

These boards just look so odd to me without a northbridge, not something I'm used to seeing at all.

Wth? There's not a red and black colour scheme like every new board that's coming out just now?

I like.

Something that worries me about this platform: When you put 2 cards in SLI/CF, the bandwidth will be cut from x16 to x8 in both PCIe slots.

If they add another device, like an nForce chipset, could it be possible to get x16/x16 bandwidth in both ports?

I haven't really been following the development of the P55's but why do they NOT have a northbridge?
