    [WTB] P55 mobo with SATA 600

    in Sold

    Posted

    I am looking for a socket 1156 P55 mobo with SATA 600 enabled through a PLX switch chip (4 pci-e 1.0 to 2 pci-e 2.0) and without a NF200 chip.

    Most of the boards out there thake 8 pci-e lanes for it so u end up with just 8 lanes for gpu.

    Boards i am looking for are:

    MSI P55-GD85

    ASUS P7P55D-E Deluxe

     

    And maybe some other i havent found..yet..

    Why bother with 3d with suck old cpus? Only reason is that i have some 1156 cpus that i want to test...Simple as that.

    Why have nf200 mobo's then, for pc mark benching i can understand the sata600 part.. i do think for just testing cpu's there are lots more mobo's that will do the job just as good and a lot cheaper.. but it is ur choice.

    about th p55's: U might wanna check how sata600 is generated.. some board use pci-e 2.0 lanes for it so ur gonna loose gpu bandwith and some use 4 pci-1.1 lanes and make 2 pci-e 2.0 (plx chips)

    The UD7 has got the nf200 chip if i am not mistaken.. I dont know how many videocards have problems with this chip but i know the R9 290 (x) does.

    U also might wanna have a look at the MSI P55-GD85

    I also migh add that 3d benchmarking with first gen core i7/i5 is kinda useless. Cpu benching is a different story.. with latest gen fast ddr3 combined with latest videocards u might be able to score in pc mark bechmarks and memory intensive cpu benchmarks.
