Asus P5K P35 Socket 775 Motherboard
Results - CS:Source, Quake4 & F.E.A.R
Published: 4th June 2007 | Source: Asus | Price: |
To benchmark "real-world" performance, both the P5K and P5B were subjected to a total of 3 current and popular PC games. Using the integrated benchmark facility provided with CS:Source and F.E.A.R, and the 3rd party benchmark facility available from Hardware OC to benchmark the performance of Quake 4, tests were run a total of 3 times to ensure accuracy.
As we can see from the results above, Counter-Strike:Source and Quake4 showed almost identical results. The only "noticable" difference in FPS was in F.E.A.R, which recorded a 2FPS advantage for the P5B board.

If not P965 tbh
EDIT: Am I right in saying 680i supports the new Intel CPU's? If so I'll have an IN9

However, if you're thinking of going 45nm, then it's got to be P35. Just beware that afaik the P5K isn't 100% guaranteed to support Penryn when it comes out - much the same situation as the early Asus boards that supported Conroe....but didn't.
great review, love the little bit of overclocking done to a good-ish CPU too.
as i have just purchased one of these, i intend on posting my results too.
however, i think if you (like me) are moving to c2d for the first time, or are just making a new build with some amount of overclocking in mind, then the p5k dlx is just for you.
i think especially with current ddr2 prices, that it would be silly to move upto ddr3 so soon (remember how ddr2 rolled out, ddr1 was still king for many months until faster and tighter ddr2 came out) as you can probably buy 8gb of decent ddr2 for the same price (obviously for 4x2gb kits) as a single 1gb or 2gb kit of ddr3.
just my 2p worth...
