Need help deciding between P35 DS3R/DS3P and Asus P5k Pro
the P35 DS3R and Asus P5k Pro, was set on the DS3R as it's said to be a great clocker and many people like it but then saw for only £10 more the Asus has thrown a spanner in the mix!
Will be using e2160 clocked as high as possible with upgrade to q6600 or newer quad at a later date.
Bonus of the Asus is the second PCI-e x4 slot (may be useful if i want to move to crossfire later, tho will be using an 8800GT first so this isnt a primary concern, just a plus).
Should i be worried about vdroop on the Asus? is the P45 close enough to be worth waiting for?
Help appreciated, TIA
