System benchmarks
Sorenson Squeeze
We are using Sorenson Squeeze to convert eight AVCHD videos into HD Flash videos for use on websites. This application heavily favors physical core count and processor clock speed.
WinRAR 3.9 x64
This benchmark compresses our AT workload consisting of a main folder that contains 954MB of files in 15 subfolders. The result is a file approximately 829MB in size.
Bibble 5.0
We utilize Bibble Labs' Bibble 5 v2 to convert 50 RAW image files into full size JPEG images with the program's default settings. This program is fully multithreaded and multi-core aware.

The real question is why not. It's always amusing when some short-sighted person comes along and suggests a motherboard should be stripped of every possible feature that particular individual doesn't want to use, as if there is some gain in removing legacy features.More features mean a wider customer base, more sales, lower per unit cost.

I think one PS/2 for keyboard is fine. It's not as if this board is lacking in USB ports. I'd say that by now most people use USB mice at least so no PS/2 mouse port shouldn't be a complaint.therealnickdanger - Monday, March 1, 2010 - link
I still use an old AT-plug keyboard (with PS/2 adapter). It's made of metal and heavy plastic and weighs about 7 lbs and you can hear me typing on it from anywhere in the house.I love that thing.

On the other hand if you got used to a softer quieter keyboard you could annoy people less and still love typing! :) Practice makes perfect. Old habits are tough to break, but sometimes worth the effort. i.e. smoking?vol7ron - Sunday, February 28, 2010 - link
I know it's a lot of work, but you guys have been making great strides with the Bench area. Is it possible to get gpu, memory, and motherboards on there too?Thanks,

Does it undervolt and/or underclock? And if that's the case; What's the range and how small are the V steps?ScavengerLX - Sunday, February 28, 2010 - link
The base clock can be dropped down to 100MHz and Vcore can be reduced to .10V under the default voltage. Hope that helps.Joshua

Thanks for the info. -0.1V is pretty weak, but I guess it's better than nothing.jigglywiggly - Sunday, February 28, 2010 - link
Looks like a solid motherboard, too bad I have no use for a htpc.oc3an - Sunday, February 28, 2010 - link
On Page 4:"An abundance of on-board SATA ports are provided by the P55 chipset."
I'm pretty sure it's H55.
