Gigabyte GA-P55-UD3R

Introduction

Gigabyte has long been one of the top manufacturers for the budget minded gamer. Their lower end products carry over many of the features of their bigger brother without the high price tag. The UD3 series is no different. The UD3 series can really be considered the best mix between budget and high end. The board features Crossfire, and many other features you would expect to see on a high end board, yet the board's price is well below many high end boards.

This mix of budget and performance is perfect for the P55 series. The P55 system itself is supposed to be a cheaper alternative to a high end X58 system, so it is only fitting to see a P55 board with high end features at a lower end price point. One of the most notable features of this motherboard is its ability to run Crossfire. This will allow you to get a serious frame rate in any game if you choose to run Crossfire. Without further ado lets get on with the review.
