BFG nForce 680 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

Asus P5N32-E PLUS SLi nForce (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

Asus P5N32-E SLi nForce 680 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

Asus p5n-e sli. As fast as the others, probably has everything you need. Future support for 1333 (most are already running chips way above this anyways). And crucially it's not a rip off price

what does the evga 680i have that the Asus p5n-e sli doesnt ?

well it comes with a 10 year warranty.
And the support on the evga site is great with a forum full of help.The asus site sucks.
I bought the evga a month ago and been very happy with it

got shot of a p5w dh deluxe which had several issues.

At the mo i'am using
OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-6400 Dual Channel Platinum Revision 2 XTC Series DDR2 (OCZ2P800R22GK) bought an extra 2gb last week at £117

.I see the price has jumped up to £129 this week.That's still a very good price.
