HardOCP posted a review on the ASUS P8Z77-V Pro LGA 1155 Motherboard



ASUS is one of the world's largest motherboard manufacturers. While it has diversified over the years into laptops, monitors, graphics cards, and other things, motherboards have always been the forefront of its business. Its reputation is generally solid and well deserved. And while the highest end motherboards are usually the most drool-worthy, and gain the most attention and fanfare, it is the P8xxx series which is the bread and butter of its motherboard lineup. These workhorses range from fairly stripped down to feature packed solutions and even branch out into niche markets with mini-ITX offerings and the like.

The P8Z77-V Pro is a perfect example of the P8xxx series and what it has to offer. While many would consider it a stripped down model, it is anything but. While not as feature rich as some in the series, the P8Z77-V Pro does have a lot to offer, especially given its price point. ASUS is often the go-to motherboard manufacturer for many enthusiasts and with good reason. They tend to offer solid overclocking and a fantastic user experience out of the box. I'm constantly amazed by their consistency in regard to that. I've rarely ever had issues with their driver installation software or utilities. Many other manufacturers offer great hardware, but the software leaves a lot to be desired.
