Can you elborate? The few reviews I've read didn't indicate anything major,
so long as the 975X is recent enough...
I was looking at the Asus P5W DH Deluxe...none of the 965 boards look worth
a damn.
Needs:
3+ "legacy" PCI
2+ PATA onboard
6+ SATA onboard
To Intel: FU for not putting a PATA controller in the ICH8R.
I'm just itching for a new toy. I honestly haven't decided if I want to do a
platform upgrade at this point, or get a shiny new HDTV. The current state
of motherboards for Core2 make me lean towards the TV...

No its a sucky combo. While you get some of the benefit not nearly all and
SUPER shitty problems. Much better luck to xombine a core2 with current
965 boards

But there seems to be a dearth of good mobos for them..
Word is that the C2 stepping of the P965 chipset with the Conroe fixes
won't be out until 9-09 or so.. September is quite a ways off.
Should we buy 975X or just wait for September before we update to Core2
Duo? :)
