ASUS P6X58D-E Motherboard Review

Not all motherboards are created equal. Generally, manufacturers create one solid item and then chop features off of it to fit lower price points. This is true for more than motherboards too, as AMD processors have been having cores disabled for a while to fit price ranges; graphics cores have also had parts disabled to fill lower price segments. The same applies to hard drives with the number of platters, memory with the number of ICs, and other parts and pieces that can be tweaked to fit the bill. Occasionally, parts are upgraded from the base design, usually in cooling, power delivery, and clock rates. Another example of this are processors that have all the same specifications except part number and clock rate where the manufacturer has simply increased the multiplier and bumped the price up (or bumped it down and dropped the price). This information applies to the ASUS P6X58D-E that is up for review here today, which looks identical to the ASUS P6X58D Premium but with some features removed. One LAN port is removed, the top heatsink no longer has a back plate, and two heat pipes are removed between the top two heatsinks and the Northbridge and Southbridge are separated.

ASUS P6X58D-E Intel X58 Express Motherboard Review

It’s been just over 1.5 years since I reviewed my first Intel X58 motherboard. I still consider the LGA 1366 Core i7 processor coupled with the X58 Express chipset an awesome combination, and just has to be that much better with the new six-core Core i7 980x Extreme. I haven’t had the opportunity to try one of those yet, though the price has dropped to $1K, it is still a little out of my hardware budget. Actually a lot out of my hardware budget. Though well equipped, including Asus’ TurboV, Asus Express gate, and Asus EPU6, among many other features, that first Asus X58 motherboard I had, the P6T, has become a little dated, especially compared to Asus’ newer motherboards. The P6T had 8+2 phase voltage regulating, Asus has since improved on that with other boards. And both USB3 and SATA 6Gb/s has been released since the P6T was released. So to bring the venerable X58 up to date, Asus has released a couple of new X58 boards. Today I will be looking at the Asus P6X58D-E motherboard, a new Asus board sporting 16+2 phase power, true USB3 and SATA 6Gb/s, and support for the Intel Bloomfield processor and Microsoft Windows 7.

Asus P6X58D-E review

Getting the most out of your Bloomfield i7 used to mean spending some seriously silly money on a quality X58 motherboard. Indeed Asus' Rampage III Extreme (R3E) Republic of Gamer's board is the perfect embodiment of that. An incredibly feature-rich board, with bags of overclocking potential, it's beyond the realms of most of us mere mortals at £325.Which is where this vanilla Asus X58 board, the snappily named P6X58D-E comes in. It's the mid-range refresh of the company's X58 lineup with the all-singing, all-dancing poster children of the latest generation of motherboards; USB 3.0 and SATA 6 Gbps connections. It totally undercuts even its own X58 boards, with Gigabyte's X58A-UD3R firmly in its sights. At £170, it's one of the cheaper 1366 sockets boards around, but offers surprisingly good performance. At stock settings with the six-core i7 980X, it actually turbos higher than the superlative R3E. Okay, only by 0.01Ghz, but it's still keeping pace. And it keeps pace as you ramp up the clockspeeds, too. When we hit the 4.25GHz brick wall, which our basic overclocking dropped in the way, the P6X58D-E was easily throwing up comparable scores to the far more expensive board.
