Stable like a rock and the sata connectors are very smart (locking). Comes with a good bundle and nice layout.
Right now, I'm heavily favoring the ds3 / dq6 over the asus. But Asus says they will have a crosshair type board (see their amd lineup) for intel soon, and I expect they will be one of the rollout partners of the nvidia 570/590 boards Sent via BlackBerry from Cingular Wireless -----Original Message----- From: "Greg Sevart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2006 12:56:24 To:"'The Hardware List'" <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [H] New CL2 stepping for Core2 Duo?

The p5b gets raves from some but I hate it. Stability leaves a lot to desire and on the deluxe the wireless is a completely worthless usb adapter sautered onboard with garbage performance and big cpu demands....

What is the feedback on the P5B - Deluxe in regards to the 8 phase power design? Any real world benefit, overclocking, stability, etc? My only nix on the DS3 is that it uses (from what I can tell) a jmicron raid controller and not the ICH8R/ICH8DH/ICH8DO >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], The Hardware List ><[email protected]> >To: "The Hardware List" <[email protected]> >Subject: Re: [H] New CL2 stepping for Core2 Duo? >Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2006 02:29:56 +0000 > >That imho is basically the perfect combo.
