LGA1155 facts, stats and list of mainboards

same amount of useless features on board ...

Could you be a little more specific =)

Nobody experienced that boards yet afaik.

Hondacity · March 15, 2011

I can't understand how hardware vendors can justify making 184 boring variants and not have the balls to make just 1 board that has high-end PWM components, decent bios and basic amount of features.

Well ... I can. They want overclockers to pay too much for the basic stuff they want.

wtf!!!

QFT!!!

Just jumping to conclusions based on the pictures scattered over the web. I see 7.1 audio and can't see any sign of PS/2.

an OC dedicated P67 board

I thought we already established that a more suitable board for overclockers doesn't necessarily have to be 'oc dedicated', but can be build for multiple markets.

Just not the gaming market.

Hondacity · March 15, 2011

keep pushing it massman

soon we'll have reasonable oc board.. OC edition boards...

evga p6x/z68 OCFTW versions

asus p67 Black OC Edition

gigabyte p67/z68 UD-OC edition

asrock ExtremeOC edition

msi p67/z68 GDOC edition

WOOOO lol

TiN · March 15, 2011

Well, 5.1 or 7.1 it's all doesn't matter much, both are sux in a way of having ac97 codec.

As for PS/2, I think anyone now can afford USB keyboard for 5$, no? It's like complaining about not having ISA or LPT port on new boards. I have few LPT devices, like firmware flashers etc, so what, I should ask vendors to keep LPT for 20 years more, just because 0.0001% of users still have something legacy?

Making statements based on pictures, is like putting a medical diagnose by looking at patient passport photo

p.s. I wonder which vendor will first name new board with "somevendor name BEST-BOARD.EVA. edition"

It's not about the USB connection itself, but rather about the sometimes flaky behavior of the USB ports during extreme overclocking sessions. Also, if you are booting in XP and only have a USB keyboard/mouse, it's impossible to do anything if the OS has to reinstall devices as USB drivers are not the first thing it loads. Intel's magnificent boards have had 0x PS/2 for a while now and everytime I have one on my desk I get frustrated because I need to reinstall XP because I can't load an older version.

Your medical diagnose analogy doesn't really fit. Based on a (recent) passport photo I can make the medical diagnose that someone is missing two eyes and therefore will not be suited to be surgeon. Or that someone is missing two legs ...

If some P67 board will be released with OC name on it and all features have been ripped off, it should cost like 70€.

Overclocking is mostly limited by CPU on this platform, so what kind of gains we would get from OC board?

Current boards with price around 100€ can overclock CPU's very well and they have all the features basic user can need.

This board cost around 100€ in Finland: http://hwbot.org/community/submission/2123102_drnip_pifast_core_i7_2600k_13.3_sec

Nooooo....Huge amount of unnecessary features!!! http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=oztxS9uaDrwQwO2Y

I hope at least someone will get my point

Splave · March 15, 2011

^ I agree but some boards play nicer with memories then others

Hondacity · March 16, 2011

i get the price point lol

I was going to ask the same question

why are there two P67A-UD7 ?

Me Three! I was just coming to ask Massman why there is two P67A-UD7 boards listed?

This has been since way back, I realized it when I submitted for the Bclk challenge and didn't get a hardware cup for the first spot on UD7, yet I did after later submitting a score for UD4. After that I noticed there was two when looking at all results, and someone else reminded me about it earlier this week.

I'm not asking about the cup cause it's not a biggie, but seeing the list now in full made me realize I should ask you why there is two (P67A-UD7 - GA-P67A-UD7) as it kinda skews other results I'm sure.

Massman · March 16, 2011

Apparently there are 2x P67A-UD7 in the database .

I'll merge them today ... all scores will also be linked to the one P67A-UD7 dbase entry automatically.

Lsdmeasap · March 16, 2011

Awesome, thanks!

Now the hard part, finding the thread where another user reminded me because he was having an issue with it

Massman · March 16, 2011

Just fixed the P67A-UD7 twin situation.

Here's some figures that might be interesting to y'all:

Given there are 7 CPU benchmarks applicable to Sandy Bridge that generate points, we can assume that a normal user will submit 7 results on average. 19 results per user is darn impressive! The higher results/user ratio, I guess the 'more faith' one has in his/her setup?

Tried top two, but sticks to UD7 (hates the graphic BIOS )

or the harder the mobo is to work with so you submit thinking its the chips best, then try other things

Also a good explanation. Truth probably lies in between.

very cool

do X58 stuff as well

980X/990X stuff?

Massman · April 13, 2011

Updated list of LGA1155 mainboards: 9 chipsets, 13 manufacturers and 228 products. Pretty much complete, I think. Too bad there's not a single board that is both well-priced, has most high-end pwm components and none of the bs features.
