    "The Biostar TP67XE is based on Intel's P67-Express Sandy Bridge chipset and supports their socket LGA1156" did you mean to say 1156, or 1155?

    Fixed the typo... I've really needed more sleep this week.

  3. Southbridge v.3.0 Stan Permalink:

    Seems the fashion to have v.3.0 and beleave in the NVIDIA/AMD "need the x16 PCIe v.2.0 for graphics" bluff takes over the common sense. Southbridge USB/SATA 3.0 are useless (even if provided by x4 to two x1 switch). Switching the x16 link will be much more useful and effective. Take a note that in HPC products NVIDIA powers 4 GPGPUs from a single x16 link!!!
