Intel DH55TC is an extremely limited and simplified mainboard. It has a rather unsuccessful PCB design and its functionality is limited to that of the Intel H55 Express, which is one of the most primitive chipsets today. The mainboard BIOS offers very ...
Sometimes it's difficult to determine the best option in a round-up of like products. Not today. Our favorites easily separate themselves from the rest of the pack, but before singling them out, let's take a moment to address the boards that didn't mak...
" that's longer than 20 words, I'll explain my likes and dislikes here. First up is ASUS' P7H55D-M EVO, a board that costs a bit more than typical mATX offerings, but has a good reason to. I've spent many hours with this board in particular, and I have...
Abstract: For about three months now, we have been talking about the next step in Intel's tick-tock strategy of introducing products. All of the new i series CPUs were made using Nehalem architecture, so the new 32 nm CPUs represent only a die shrink, in ca...
Abstract: One of the first desktop motherboards to use Intel's new 5 Series Chipset, the Desktop Board DH55TC (which was codenamed "Tom Cove"), available for about $100 (street), demonstrates both the promise and the current limitations of Intel's latest technol...
Realizing that the majority of computer users use their computer for other tasks than playing Dirt 2 or Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Intel's new Clarkdale CPU accomplishes two tasks. Full support of Blu-ray playback and encoding by the on-CPU integra...
Compact; stable; DVI, VGA, and HDMI outputs; supports integrated video on the newest Core i3 and i5 chips; inexpensive
No parallel ATA connector for legacy drives; current video drivers max out at 1,920x1,200; 7.1-channel sound requires HDMI or an add-on back-panel S/PDIF connector
Paired with the newest Core i3 and i5 CPUs, Intel's DH55TC is a compact MicroATX motherboard that makes an excellent foundation for a Blu-ray-equipped home-theater PC. ...
Abstract: There’s not a thing wrong with the DH55TC, and it’s rather inexpensive to boot, but its most important role seems to be supporting all the technologies built into the CPU rather than boasting its own.
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 graphic...
