Gigabyte P55-UD6

Of all the Intel P55 Express motherboards we've reviewed, Gigabyte's P55-UD6 is one of the more expensive models. Is it worth the extra outlay? From an overclocking standpoint we have to say yes because the Gigabyte is a far more overclocking-friendly board. With the P55-UD6 you can over volt your CPU to 1.9-volts and when it comes to memory, you can force-feed a colossal 2.6-volts to your DDR3 modules. The Asus P7P55D Deluxe by comparison tops out at 1.628-volts and 2-volts respectively. If you plan to use the Gigabyte's maximum voltage settings however, we recommend you use incredibly strong cooling on both your CPU and memory modules or else they could be damaged or destroyed. From a layout perspective the Gigabyte has a slight edge over the Asus Deluxe. This is because despite both boards being somewhat cramped, the P55-UD6 features six DDR3 DIMM slots versus four. While the Asus offers the same maximum memory limit as the Gigabyte, the latter allows you to be a little more flexible with your choice of memory modules.

Intel's P55 Express chipset

The GA-P55-UD6 tops Gigabyte's P55 lineup, and with a suggested retail price of $250, it had better. This makes the UD6 the priciest of the three boards we're looking at today, although it's not substantially more expensive than the P7P55D Deluxe. Like Asus, Gigabyte also has a varied array of cheaper P55 models, including more affordable SLI-certified variants, one of which has a microATX form factor. We'll be getting to those boards soon, reserving our focus today for the UD6. Gigabyte has made its trademark turquoisey-blue work with the more restrained motherboard aesthetics that have taken hold as of late. The UD6 certainly looks sharp, even if the racing stripes are a little odd. I'm usually a sucker for racing stripes, but these ones don't really match or line up with each other. A more traditional heatsink layout makes the UD6 look like it's hiding typical north and south bridge chipset components. The P55 PCH is actually in the middle of the board where you might otherwise expect to find a north bridge chip. What looks to be a south bridge cooler is just covering a couple of auxiliary storage controllers.
