Core i5-661 and H55/H57It is hard not to be impressed by Intel’s latest CPU/GPU and Chipset launch. They have taken the already very impressive Core range of processors, created a high performing dual core model and added to it an integrated...
The P7H57D-V EVO’s performance was top-notch, and the board remained rock-solid stable throughout testing. At just under $200, though, it is somewhat pricey compared to other H55-based motherboards. But the addition of SATA 6Gbps and USB 3.0 along with...
There's a whiff of something new, something different in the air in 2010. It's a smell that will become an overpowering pong during the next few years until it eventually drowns out everything else in PCdom. Yup, this odorous wind of change is...

The ASUS P7H57D-V EVO looks to be a very good motherboard. It has a solid feature set, solid performance, and solid stability. We are still sort of left wondering exactly who this board would be "good for." Dan used the phrase "jack of all trades,...
