Sorenson Squeeze 6
We are using Sorenson Squeeze to convert eight AVCHD videos into HD Flash videos for use on websites. This application heavily favors physical core count and processor clock speed.
WinRAR 3.9 x64
This benchmark compresses our AT workload consisting of a main folder that contains 954MB of files in 15 subfolders. The result is a file approximately 829MB in size.
Bibble 5.0
We utilize Bibble Labs' Bibble 5 v2 to convert 50 RAW image files into full size JPEG images with the program's default settings. This program is fully multithreaded and multi-core aware.
File Transfer to USB
In this test we use Sharkoon's USB QuickPort with a 1TB Western Digital hard drive and transfer a 1GB file from a 1TB HDD connected to the Intel PCH.

Not a typo - it's 30 amps per FET at CPU VID.MadMan007 - Thursday, May 6, 2010 - link
Amps alone aren't a measure of power. A=current, W=power.ajbumass - Thursday, May 6, 2010 - link
"Much of what the ECS H55H-I can and cannot do bares a startling resemblance to Intel’s DH57JG."This should be "bears".
"The only major difference is that ECS are keeping a loose grip on the voltage reigns for Clarkdale processors at present, so you get more room to play with overclocking."
I think you mean "reins".

I have been waiting a long time.Finally and at last.
Only problem?
I have yet to see a decent case and PSU for one of these :(.
Well, except maybe a Shuttle K45 case and PSU. They have a slimline optical bay at the top, but no port for it in the front cover :S

Many thanks, I don't know how I missed that. I enjoy SPCR.Swivelguy2 - Thursday, May 6, 2010 - link
Rajinder,Did you test if this board can run 2 digital displays (HDMI + DVI) from the IGP? There are reports that some H55 boards can only run 2 displays using one of them as analog, so I'm wondering if this one is similarly crippled.
Thanks for the review!

Hi,Just checked for you quickly. No problems here. I'm using DVI out and HDMI out simultaneously and both displays are active.
