Other Elite Options

Dare I suggest, the ASRock P55 Deluxe offers the nicest balanced features thus far? It’s not an extreme tweaker’s motherboard, but it’s definitely capable of far more than just advertising ASRock’s name. If you need a fully featured board, but can’t afford the $200 level or need that kind of overclocking, grab the ASRock P55 Deluxe.

If none of these boards do it for you, remember there are several other models that offer different levels of features. The price will go up as well. You just have to decide what you want or need and how much you’re willing to pay. Until I see some more of other top echelon motherboards, the current top two I have handled “off site” are the ASUS P7P55D Premium and GIGABYTE GA-P55-UD6.

I hope to give the flagship boards from ASUS and GIGABYTE an official spin soon. That should help cover everyone’s questions and curiosity. In the meantime, check out the other reviews over at Futurelooks. As always, feel free to ask some questions or make a comment.
