Buying a new motherboard from Asus might be a gamble, at least with the P75P55D-E model. Asus website list the motherboards' features at their web site: Here are some of the features: Marvell® SATA 6Gb/s controller: - 2 x SATA 6.0 Gb/s ports (gray) NEC® USB 3.0 controller: - 2 x USB 3.0 ports (blue; at back panel) Expansion Slots: - 1 x PCIe 2.0 x16 (single at x16) On the surface, it does sound good, but once the board is fired up, the above selected features are either on or off, depending on the settings.

The chances are that Gigabyte has the same Marvell chip, but I am not sure about their driver. There are some issues with the Marvell chip and on of them is performance. Here's a benchmark for this chip when the 'IO Levelup' is set to disabled in the P7P55D-E, or in another word the chip performs at SATA 2.0 speed: And here's another image when the 'IO Levelup' is set to SATA 3.0 in the P7P55D-E: While there's a sizable difference between the two benchmarks, there's no true SATA 3.0 throughput even when the BIOS is set to the correct values. The actual sequential read/write throughput should be 300-350 and 120-130 respectively.
The other benchmark numbers should also be 10-30% higher as well. At the current time it seems that the best support for SATA 3.0 is coming from AMD. The LGA 1155 will have SATA 3.0 support coming out next month, but it remains to be seen just how well it'll perform with SATA 3.0. My bet would be on very well. In the meantime and since there isn't much choices for me, I'll probably order a P7P55D-E Pro today. At least it'll be an easy drop-in replacement.

Similar help and support threads Thread Forum In another support thread here on sevenforums I'm adviced to update the usb drivers for my motherboard, but the asus website doesn't seem to have them. I have no idea where to look. Windows cannot automatically update the drivers as it claims they are up to date already so I will have to.
Drivers Hi all, Any idea what's the best value RAM for the above board? It's been a while and a recent game seems to have boned my RAM (or just pointed out the fact it was already boned) Memtests are failing and the game in question keeps BSOD'ing and crashing to desktop. All was fine before. Hardware & Devices Hey there, I'm using the onboard sound of my ASUS P7P55D motherboard. The back audio connectors work fine, but I somehow can't use the front panel that I connected to the mobo (yellow cable). Is there a trick or any setting to activate it with win7 professional x64? I also tried changing.
