Asus P7P55D Deluxe Motherboard Review

Article Index Gaming Performance When it comes to gaming we can see that the motherboard has little impact on performance at least when using a single graphics card. The Asus P7P55D Deluxe delivered the exact same result as the other P55 motherboards at 1920x1200, while it was just a single frame slower than the MSI P55-GD65 at 1024x768. Supreme Commander results were just as dull, though this time it was the Asus P7P55D Deluxe that one upped the MSI P55-GD65 at 1920x1200, delivering just one extra frame per second....

OCZ Sabre OLED Gaming Keyboard review

The standard 103-keyboard works just fine. General typing and button pressing takes a hair more force than I am used to with my Logitech G15. I also noticed the keys are a bit more audible than the G15. Even so, the Sabre is nowhere near as loud as say, theDas Keyboard. Overall build quality on the main keys is sturdy. This is not the case on the G15 where I find a lot of horizontal play in each key....
