CPU-Z

OC Software
Conclusion:
The ASRock P55M Pro is a recommended board it will put a lot of P55 boards to shame when one considers its overclocking potential, feature set, quality, and price.
The Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 is a far better overclocker then ASRock's P55M Pro, especially if you consider that it is an entry-level board, furthermore it has excellent stability and compatibility, along with being consistently at or near the top of the benchmarks.
- hardware.info compared this board with more than twenty other mobos, benchmark results were a bit disappointing. In the cinebench 10 test it had the lowest score of all the motherboards that were tested.
SiSoft Sandra 2009 CPU Benchmarks: in Dhrystone as well as Whetstone it was in the lower regions of the charts.
