Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4P is an Intel motherboard based on Intel's P55 Express chipset and carry Gigabyte's "Ultra Durable 3" branding. Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4P works with both LGA 1156-based Core i7 and i5 processors, and its six DDR3 slots support up to 16GB of system memory. Although the Lynnfield-based processors only feature dual-channel memory controllers, Gigabyte is able to expose four slots on one channel and two on the other, giving you a little more room to upgrade. You’ll also find a boatload of ports and slots on this Intel motherboard. Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4P includes three x16 PCI Express slots, two PCIe x1 slots, and two conventional PCI slots. You can use the motherboard with either ATI CrossFire or Nvidia SLI (Remember that slot one will slow to x8 signaling and USB 3.0/SATA 6Gb/s interfaces run at half-speed, but it is still significantly faster than USB 2.0). There are six SATA 3Gb/s connectors, and two 6Gb/s SATA connectors. Those who need to use legacy devices will appreciate continuing support for an IDE connector that handles ATA-133/100/66/33 for one or two drives. Not only that, you’ll also find an integrated floppy disk controller as well. The Realtek ALC889 audio codec supports up to eight channels (7.1) of high-def audio, including Dolby Home Theater. The dual Realtek RTL8111D GbE LAN chips support teaming and Smart Dual LAN to boost your bandwidth above 1Gb/s on switched Gigabit Ethernet networks. Another nice touch about Gigabyte GA-P55A-UD4P Intel motherboard is there are six fan headers, including a power fan, three system fans, a chipset fan, and a CPU fan. Rear panel connectors include a single PS/2 mouse/keyboard port, coaxial and optical S/PDIF audio outs, two FireWire ports, six USB 2.0/1.1 and six USB 3.0/2.0 ports, two Gigabit Ethernet ports, and a full complement of analog audio outputs.
