ECS P67H2-A Sandy bridge motherboard preview - Product gallery

When we flip the board around once more we spot low level connectivity like extra USB 2.0, audio headers and so on. Audio itself is handled by Realtek's 892 codec allowing 8 channels of audio.

For those wondering if you like to go multi-GPU with three cards, this is possible at a 16:8:8 PCIe lane configuration, we are now sure about SLI certification just yet though so, you might be forced to use the Lucid Hydra route. But that should be plenty of bandwidth for even the most modern high end graphics cards.

So there you have it you guys. A small preview of what is coming motherboard wise. The launch date for Intel's new processors is still quite a bit away from us, but is the processors will be equally as interesting as the motherboards like shown in this preview, then we have a lot of interesting stuff coming our way alright.

We like to thank ECS for sending out this motherboard for this small preview. Pricing remains to be announced, but we suspect it will be pricy at above 200 USD. More soon though.
