Материнская плата ASUS P7H55

При потере питания(сбой в электросети, выдергивание шнура, выключение до загрузки операционки) срабатывает система защиты от некорректного разгона и настройки разгона сбрасываются. Как итог разогнать и забыть нельзя — но это скорее не недостаток, а то что стандартно у всех.

Достоинства:

Качество весьма хорошее. Тонкие настройки разгона. В боксовом комплекте всё что в нём есть весьма приятно выглядит.

цена приемлимая для него))) не вижу смысла брать подороже))) очень хорошая и для цены, и для разгона! я ничуть не жалею что взял ее! ВООБЩЕМ НАРОД КЛАССНАЯ МАТЬ! БЕРИТЕ ЕЕ! НЕ ПРОГОДАЕТЕ!!!)))

Достоинства:

очень удобное размещение чего либо, прекрасный дизайн! есть все что нужно!

разогнал свой комп вот так: core i5 760 @ 2.8Ghz @ 4Ghz! FSB 200! частота северного моста 3.2Ghz, оператива Crucial 1339 @ 1600! полет офигенный! ни одного глюка! комп греется 60 Максимум!

Достоинства:

Хороший разгон, понятный биос даже новичек сможет разогнать систему! И еще одно она холодная!

взял для разгона corei3 530. 3.74GHZ стабильно!

Достоинства:

хороший чипсет, удачное расположение pci слотов. хорошая производительность. отличный разгон

Оптимальный выбор для офисного или домашнего пользования.

Выбирал себе недорогую плату на чипсете H55 для домашнего пользования и среди всего прочего остановился на P7H55-M. Важно было наличие как SATA, так и IDE интерфейсов, так как нужно было подключить старый dvd-rw. От P7H55-M Pro отказался сразу ибо дорого и продвинутые оверклокерские функции мне ни к чему. С другой стороны P7H55-M LX брать побоялся — частота работы DDRIII вроде как меньше там, да и слотов только 2.В итоге всем доволен — отличное качество сборки, набор софта на диске впечатляет, даже антивирус есть от Norton. Прикольно, что можно кулерами управлять как хочешь — задавать нужное число оборотов, в зависимости от температуры. А оверклокерских фич столько, что еще не разобрался со всеми — если надумаю разгонять проц, то это мне сильно поможет.

Достоинства:

Качество сборки, богатый функционал, отличный софт, невысокая цена.
