Real-time pricing for Intel BOXDH55TC.
Intel H55TC Motherboard H55 LGA 1156 Dual DDR3 Support Micro ATX SATA HDMI DVI VGA USB 2.0
TigerDirect: $89.99 CompUSA: $89.99

Conclusions

Intel DH55TC is a very basic motherboard for the new Core i3 and Core i5 processors with integrated video. Its highlights include the presence of three video connectors (VGA, DVI-D and HDMI, although only two of them can be used at the same time) and a mix of Japanese and solid capacitors.

Its drawbacks include the presence of only three shared analog audio jacks, no on-board SPDIF connectors (it has an SPDIF header, so you can easily have SPDIF outputs by buying and installing an adapter, though), a voltage regulator circuit that could be better designed and only a very basic overclocking option (although for the target-audience of this board the lack of more overclocking features isn’t a problem).

At USD 105 we think this motherboard is too expensive for what it is and thus we can’t recommend it, as there are similar boards from other manufacturers costing less.
