A very important part of the overall system responsiveness is down to hard drive performance, so we are using two of our favourite benchmark utilites CrystalMark X64 Edition and HDTach. The Corsair Force F40 SSD drive is on test today.
Performance is good from the modestly priced SSD drive showing around 270 MB/s read performance from the Crystalmark testing.

£200? is that for real. their X58 board is £20 more !
I can understand them wanting to give people a talking point and offering support for nvidia multi card solutions but this technolology has just been slated no matter were I read about it. The X58 board they released had the best ideal, just forget SLI and work on single card and crossfireX solutions. It would have helped the price of this product by a long shot.
I really cant get over the price point. 200 for a P67, thats the same price as this killer model from asus http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-444-AS&groupid=701&catid=5&subcat=1906
Good board for build qualty, I like sapphire products. always have. perfect if you are using AMD cards. I would have liked to see 6990 in CFx on it 🙂
Its moer expensive than a p67 board, generally, but its not that much, id buy it, even though I wouldnt touch lucid. might play around with it though, as I like tinkering.
Nice board layout, like the switches at the bottom. I hate seeing a board with CMOS switch undernearth a dual card graphics position
Seriously you have to be totally drunk, mad and on crack to buy it. For 11 Pounds less* you can get far superior motherboard – AsRock Fatality. Not a massive fan of AsRock, but Fatality so far received many glowing reviews which means that it is in fact very good product.
* – or for ~10 Pounds more with shipping to the continent.
Yeah its tough to even consider at 200 quid. if i was aiming that high, id just go for X58 and get a board for 20-30 more. and end up with three way memory.
Still its a good product to be fair, a lot of testing in this review showing its a good AMD gaming board. I think they took a risk with lucid to be different and its bitten them on the ass in regards to cost.
I think this is one of the dumbest ideas ever from Sapphire. people dont expect them to support nvidia, ditch SLI and dont rely on this lucid nonsense. no one likes it. SLI is bad enough as is crossfire needing driver profiles.
Lucid NEEDS DRIVER PROFILES FOR GAMES on top of this ! and with updates, what every 2 months? thats never going to work. this review is much too positive. id give this board 6/10. its a good board, but its nothing better than others at much less money without a useless feature.
Good review but this tech seems unfinished. It’s sli or nothin
Sapphire make good products but whoever said to include lucid needs bitchslapped
Will sapphire release a p67 without lucid on it?
Performance is good, especiall with 2ghz memory. But it’s overpriced for the spec.
