 Today we're going to be doing a quick unboxing of the P8P67LE from Asus. So cameraman has already jumped ahead of me and he's looking at all the different stuff down here. So we have their... this is their turbo, whatever it's called, turbo processing unit or something like that. Anyway, between these two you can either boost up performance or you can improve energy efficiency. Let's just say that much. Here we have support for SATA, 6 gigabit per second. We have USB 3 and Memo K and I actually used the Memo K button on an Asus motherboard recently for the first time. It actually works. I was not able to post because the memory was not 100% compatible with the P67 chipset. I used the Memo K button, it set it to a totally safe setting and I was able to get into the BIOS to adjust all the timings manually. Very neat. Certificate of assurance, low radiation, eco-friendly and anti-surge. Well, there it is. Okay, it supports the NECPU on LGA 1155. So that is Core i5, Core i7 CPUs on LGA 1155. It is not backwards compatible with LGA 1156 and you will ruin it something if you try and do that. Alright, we have an EFI BIOS, which is a very cool thing, as well as AI Suite, which has all kinds of neat functionality like adjusting fan profiles, that turbo thing, the eco thing, as well as monitoring your temperature. So let's get the board opened up. And we have accessories. Whoa, an IDE cable. I haven't seen an IDE cable in a motherboard box in a little while actually, so there's one. Here we have two SATA, two right angle cables. We have one SATA 3, 6 gigabit per second right angle cable. Please note, there's no physical difference between them other than the white color coding, which doesn't matter. Here's an I.O. shield. Here is a user's guide and here is a support DVD and powered by ASUS sticker. Download the latest from the ASUS website. Don't bother with that CD. This is an LE board, so that is why we are seeing a fairly limited accessory package on this guy. However, ooh, uh-oh, that could be bad news. Check this out. I found a jumper. Okay, so this jumper was probably somewhere. We are going to go on a voyage of discovery and try to figure out where this jumper came from. My guess would be the chassis intrusion. Oh, no. Oh, here we go. Here we are. This is a clear CMOS. There is no chassis intrusion thing. So one to two is normal. Let's assume one to two is those two. There we go. So that's where that came from, hopefully. And here's the board. So let's start in the middle where we have our LGA1155 CPU socket, which supports, as I mentioned before, all Core i5 and Core i7 chips on this platform. That means because we are using the P67 chipset, you have full support for overclocking K-series unlocked chips, as well as turning up the turbo on turbo-supporting processors. But because it's P67, it will not support the onboard video on any of the Core i-series second-generation chips. Here we have a wave-style MOSFET heatsink. It looks like this board is using a 4-plus-1 phase power design, as far as I can tell. Um... Yeah, hard to say. That's what it looks like, though. So, guys, please correct me if I'm wrong on that one, because it doesn't indicate anything on the box itself. And that makes life difficult for Linus. Hmm. Okay. Well, let's keep on moving along, then. Here is our 8-pin CPU connector in its ideal location. Here is our dual-channel DDR3 supporting slot, so up to four slots, up to, I believe it can support up to 32 gigs of memory, although please, once again, correct me if I'm wrong. Here's the Memo-K button. One IDE port. Check that out, yo. So if you have an IDE drive you want to use, this is the board you want, because most P67 boards do not support IDE drives. Here's our 24-pin power connector in its ideal location. Here are a couple of SATA 3, 6 gigabit per second ports, and, wow, here's another one. So that must be off the same controller as this IDE, uh, as this IDE port. Okay, here is our chipset cooler. So that's the I.O. controller chip under there that's going to be running also the SATA 6 gigabit per second ports, as well as the SATA 3 gigabit per second ports here. We have four front USB headers, a Firewire header. We have, apparently, a Clear CMOS jumper, as well as a COM1 header. Okay, in terms of expansion slots, it's a P67 board, so that means it is Crossfire ready. We do have support for, uh, one 16x card up here, or dual 8x cards, so that means if you want to run Crossfire, you will have enough bandwidth for two cards without any issues. Here we have two PCI slots, three PCI slots. This is a relatively low-end board, so that's something that I've come to expect because you may want to carry forward your sound card or some other PCI device. We've got two PCI-E 1x slots, and this is a fairly ideal, uh, layout, although maybe I'd prefer one more PCI-E 1x slot accessible if you are running dual, dual slot cards because you're going to be left with two PCI and one PCI-E 1x if you're running a Crossfire configuration. So let's have a look at the I.O. shield on the back of the board here. We have dedicated PS2 ports for keyboard and mouse, two USB 3.0 ports, optical audio out, six USB 2.0 ports, we've got eSATA, Firewire, gigabit ethernet, and 7.1 audio out. So nothing particularly exceptional about the back of the board, except, oh, look at this, Asus is using screws, spring-mounted screws, for the chipset cooler, so that's, uh, that's a pretty nice touch. I do like to see screws used for mounting coolers versus pushpins, but it's not always possible for economic reasons. Thank you for checking out my unboxing of the Asus P8P67LE motherboard.
