4 |

Intel P965 Chipset: |

|
10 |
MSI P965 Platinum: |
11 |
+ cheap :) |

14 |
|
15 |
ASUS P5P Deluxe |
16 |
+passive cooling |
17 |
+- more expensive than the MSI, but still ok |
18 |
+- easier to get, but still most shops show me a wait time... |

Intel 975X Chipset: |
22 |
|
23 |
Intel D975XBX "Bad Axe" |
24 |

25 |
+ good for overclocking (what i hardly do...) |

Anyone got experience with one of these boards, especially driver issues |
34 |
are interesting. |
35 |
I'm not sure how much I should give on the overclocking |
36 |
possibilities...I usually don't do that, wouldn't mind having the option |
37 |
though (no extreme overclocking for sure, but perhabs a little) |
38 |
Cheapest of all is the MSI...had good experience with MSI as well... |
