Which of these motherboards have the 680i Nvidia chipset?

Because am confused big time, after reading the reviews am just totaly lost and i don't understand why overclockers can not make it clear on their web site what product has the 680i chipset.

thankyou

That's actually not quite right - they all use the same "680i" Northbridge, but they vary the Southbridge - the P5N-E SLi uses the 650 Southbridge, the P5N32-E uses the 680i Southbridge and the P5N32-E Plus uses the older 590 Southbridge, but officially it is still a 680i board. THe 590i Southbridge gives the 2 16x slots for the SLi graphics, but not all the features of the 680i Southbridge. I'm not surprised the OP is/was confused.
