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.

  The two eSATA/USB Combo ports are an especially interesting new feature;Overall, the GIGABYTE GA-P55-UD5 is a solid product in terms of performance and stability. Its very aggressive nature makes it a very solid platform worthy of the most avid gamer given the better option ALC889A HD Codec out of the box. When a shot is fired from some distance off, or bullets are ricocheting around you, a gamer wants to hear it! Audio enthusiasts will also appreciate the experience as well.

  P55. It does not get much more innovative and new. It worked well with the new motherboard chipset, and GIGABYTE has taken advantage of the excess space wisely by placing heat pipe-connected heatsink in the space where the Northbridge chip was placed in the past.
