ASUS Maximus III Gene @ TechPowerUp
“Summing it all up proves very easy, as there is no question which board is both the better performer, as well as the better overclocker. I remain so impressed with the Maximus III Gene that it will become my main motherboard, without a doubt. All the included features packed into such a small package didn’t detract from the board’s ability, and it truly shocked me how everything worked so well together.”
Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD7 @ OC3D
“When you add in the many high-end features it comes with, such as a plethora of USB3.0 ports and expansions, eSATA and SATA 6Gbp/s by the bucketload and full 16x/16x PCIe slots it’s easy to see why this is a clear winner of the much coveted OC3D Gold Award. The ease of overclocking and performance that unleashes also mean it’s worthy of our Performance Award too.”
ECS H67H2-M & H67H2-I @ Hardware Heaven
“Today that changes as we have two H67 based boards on our test bench. The subjects of our review today are the H67H2-M Black Deluxe and H67H2-I which are two boards from the m-ATX and mini ITX product families at ECS. We will be running each through a selection of synthetic and real world tests, including Blu-Ray 3D and GPU computing to see how they compare to the reference Intel board.”
ASUS P8P67 @ Motherboards.org
“Overclocking options abound on the UEFI BIOS and I was able to get the multiplier above 46 on air giving a 4.6GHz overclock without much issue. The new AI Suite puts all of the various modules those previous motherboards such as PC Probeit TurboV etc on one interface. This makes overclocking the board easy for everyone and the tweaker will have the options to really overclock their new Sandy Bridge CPU with options like .1MHz BCLK adjustments.”
Intel DP67BG & ECS P67H2-A @ Au-Ja!
“Intel’s DP67BG and the ECS P67H2-A Back Extreme. While ECS offers more features including Lucid’s Hydra and support for up to three graphics cards, Intel decorated the DP67BG with a skull that blinks red when your harddrive is accessed. Our 30 page review introduces both motherboards including all chips and features, checks the performance with games and applications, validates the throughput of USB, SATA and PCIe.”
Gigabyte P67A-UD5 @ iXBT Labs
“Although P67A-UD5 isn’t the highest-end product in the series, we believe it’s the most reasonable high-end solution. Those who need the most will surely prefer P67A-UD7 with its full-speed PCIe x16 slots, additional controllers and steep price. Regular users will choose simpler models, like P67A-UD4 and cheaper.”
Gigabyte P67A-UD4 @ FunkyKit
“In this review, we’ll be taking a look at the Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD4 motherboard. It utilizes Intel’s new P67 chipset and supports all of the new Sandy Bridge LGA 1155 processors from Intel. This motherboard features all of Gigabyte’s innovative technologies, which we mentioned earlier. These include dual BIOS, Ultra Durable 3, 2oz Copper PCB and more recent SATA3 and USB Power.”
Gigabyte H67MA-UD2H @ FunkyKit
“So with that said, we will be taking a look at the Gigabyte H67MA-UD2H motherboard. Like the Intel DH67BL, it’s based on a micro-ATX form factor and utilises Intel’s new H67 chipset, which is designed to complement the new Intel Sandy Bridge processors (socket LGA 1155). It supports range of extra features such as SATA3, USB3.0, onboard RAID, support for DDR3-1333, DX10.1, as well as integrated video outputs, such as DVI and HDMI.”
ASUS RoG Maximus IV Extreme @ Hardware Heaven
“When we took an initial look at the Sandy Bridge platform last week we included two motherboards from Intel which, as always, set the bar high for quality and performance. With their Maximus IV Extreme ASUS have taken the platform to an entirely new level, even at this early stage. Essentially what we have here, from a design and build quality perspective, is the result of the ASUS engineers sitting down and throwing everything they could at the P67 platform.”
ASRock P67 Pro3 @ ProClockers
“The ASRock P67 Pro3 is the middle of the road motherboard, still offering quite a bit in the form of technology and features, but does not go over the top as to keep it at an affordable price point. Offering a powerful V8 + 2 power phase configuration, support for the unlocked multiplier âKâ series processors, USB 3.0 and even SATA III. Anyone looking at the Pro3 will definitely get a solid motherboard with a whole lot of bells and whistles.”
