| In our opinion the P67A-UD4 is a very good looking board. The design as well as the layout are definitely good. One thing we very much like is, that when you put a graphics card into the second PCI-Express x16 slot the connectors at the bottom edge of the board won't be covered. Unfortunately there are no practical power and reset buttons on this board. There is also no clear-CMOS button, all you can find is an old-school clear-CMOS jumper. | - Design - Layout |

Generally the Gigabyte P67A-UD4s layout is very well thought. Once more very practical are the angled SATA connectors. Furthermore the placement of the PCI-Express x16 slots is well thought too and therefore nothing needs to be criticized at this point. We already mentioned that we'd like to see power and reset buttons on this board. Looking at the boards price and the market segment it's aiming for it is understandable why there is no debug led but this would also have been a nice addition. |
