Gigabyte will soon launch the GA-P55A-UD6, its new socket LGA-1156 motherboard with USB 3.0 and SATA 6Gb/s support.

It uses a Marvell SATA 6GB/s two-port controller and an NEC USB 3.0 controller with two ports on the backpanel. In addition to these new connectivity features, the new board will also ship with a new 24 phase CPU VRM.



The board comes in a dashing shade of Miami Vice blue, packs 6 DDR3 slots and three PCI-E 2.0 x16 slots. SLI and Crossfire are supported at x8 and you'll also get Dolby Home Theater integrated audio.

There is still no word on pricing or availability.
