Not sure if you had used GIGABYTE MB's in the past.
Thanks for your report.
One would think with lower inherent power consumption that some of the de-tuning steps might not have the same importance?
Follow Ups:
BIOS of h55/57 and h67 Giga mobo doesn't got ctrl+F1 function.
You'll enter straight on in the advanced setting only pressing end button.
BIOS setting of h67 is flexible like the previous model but the difference of power consumption and CPU efficiency make difference on the setting.
These characteristics are today the best available, IMHO, for a cMP2 project and the SQ of this new HW system is better than the older one.
Obviously this is my "audiophile" opinion, now I can only wait for some follow up about it
I did notice the ADVANCE CPU CORE FEATURES which allows you to use only one core, along with other things that will correspond to earlier MB's recommendations.
I am inringued by the CORE CURRENT LIMIT and the other power limiting things. Whether they allow you lower limits is not explained in the manual.
For me, PCI is a requirement since I am using a modded JULI@ that I have no desire to replace.
For your Juli@ you may be interested in Gigabyte GA-Q67M-D2H-B3 motherboard. GB is probably about to release a whole series of Q67 chip based motherboards.
Gigabyte GA-Q67M-D2H-B3 is not interested for cMP2 system as it's bios is very lite w/o underclocking and other advanced settings (see manual http://download.gigabyte.us/FileList/Manual/mb_manual_ga-q67m-d2h-b3_e.pdf).
In this sense it is much more interesting ASUS P8Q67-M DO http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/Intel_Socket_1155/P8Q67M_DO/

One more thing to do!
maybe the owners manual is REAL early and not accurate.
If this is true, very disappointing.
Much simpler board, only two memory slots.
BIOS looks like what we expect from GIGABYTE.
Now, when will these be available?
