Asus P7P55 Pro Motherboard Pictured

Some photos of an early sample of the Asus P7P55 motherboard have surfaced. The P7P55 will be an entry level board for the upcoming Lynnfield platform scheduled for September. Full specifications are unknown but the photos show off two PCI-E x 16 slots which will have support for Crossfire and possibly SLI too.
