The ECS P67H2-A2, after our first look, offers everything any user will need on the Intel P67 Express platform. Its design and color scheme are very well done, and you can tell alot of attention was paid to it by ECS engineers. Now that Sandybridge is released in the public market space, we are eager to put it through the paces in a full review and see how ECS stacks up. The many included features and software rivals other offerings, even covering some things not seen elsewhere, like "HyperHDD", and "eJIFFY". The complete package offers everything any gamer or enthusiast needs, and then some, leaving us excited for the opportunity to push it to the limit. Perhaps we can meet the Black Series as the hero destined to slay the dragon very soon. Keep an eye on TPU for an upcoming full review.
