Look, we know you’ve got choices, and when it comes to motherboards, you’ve got options galore. If you’ve been eying a new Core i5 or Core i7 rig to replace that aging Pentium 4 486 system of yours, but aren’t quite feeling the pre-fabricated thing, a whole slew of mobo makers have pushed through new boards to support Intel’s P55 Express chipset. The gurus over at Hot Hardware — gluttons for pain no like other, it seems — rounded up mainboards from ASUS, EVGA, Gigabyte, Intel and MSI in order to see which ruled the roost, and more importantly, which was right for you. Options ranging from $140 to $340 were taken into account, and while the top-end EVGA P55 Classified obviously performed well under pressure, just about every single contender had a little something special to offer. There’s no cut and dry “winner” when it comes to something like this, only detailed explanations as to which board suits what kind of buyer. Tired of paging through Froogle without actually knowing what you’re looking for? Tap that source link and get some enlightenment.
