Gigabyte P55-UD5

[Rob Williams]

Alongside Intel's Lynnfield launch, Gigabyte launched close to ten motherboards, one of which we're taking a look at here. The P55-UD5 is the company's second-highest offering, and it shows, with its huge feature-set, 12-phase power solution, overclocking-ability, robust BIOS, keen design and more.

Whoops, no it wasn't... I meant to make mention of that in the article. The cooler used was Thermalright's MUX-120. The stock cooler was just used for stock-clocked testing.

3.6GHz was stable on the stock cooler, however, although the temps were at the point of being too high (but this was under full LinX testing, so it's more extreme than normal conditions).

nice review and a very cool(hmm hott!) overclock! 4 Ghz Quad would be amazing!

When it comes to Motherboards, would u put Gigabyte one the No.1 spot?!
