Stephen Gigabyte GA-EX38-DS4 @ Bjorn3D
“Current motherboards seem to be performing so close to each other that often motherboards with same chipsets will have performance less than 5% from each other. In order to differentiate themselves among other boards, motherboard manufactures are starting implement different approaches.”
ASUS P5K-E WIFI-AP @ Au-Ja!
“The ASUS P5K-E WIFI-AP offers almost the same features as the ASUS P5K Premium but you’ll save 30-40 Euros. If you don’t need a second Gigabit-LAN controller, this motherboard might be the better choice. We’ve compared the two mainboards and show you the differences.”
MSI P35 Platinum Combo @ X-Bit Labs
“Today we are going to introduce to you a very interesting combo solution from MSI that is based on Intel P35 Express chipset and can work with DDR3 or DDR2 SDRAM. Find out what the pros and cons of this approach are from our detailed review.”
ASUS P5E3 WS Professional @ Mikhailtech
“ASUS has been around for several years now, creating hundreds of award winning motherboards that leave other competing companies in the dust. ASUS is known for their excellent quality build and performance in their motherboards from the past years, but is this still the case?”
ASUS Striker II Formula @ Hot Hardware
“The Striker II Formula is a member of ASUS’ high-end Republic of Gamers, or ROG, series of motherboards. As such, the board is loaded with features and integrated peripherals that set it apart from run of the mill products. Head on over to the site and check it out…”
MSI X48 Platinum @ X-Bit Labs
“It is quite hard to find differences in the technical specifications between the new Intel X48 Express and its predecessor. It also supports all new LGA 775 Intel processors including quad-core ones, works with second generation PCI Express interface, supports DDR2 and DDR3 SDRAM, comes equipped with Intel ICH9 South Bridge.”
MSI P35 Diamond @ TweakTown
“Today MSI’s game has picked up, producing some of the most impressive boards we have seen. The Platinium boards are really impressing us, and today the Diamond has managed to become another high quality contender with just about every feature you’re going to want.
To this end the P35 Diamond is shipped with a PCI Express x1 Sound Blaster X-Fi audio card. This is the exact same card that Creative sells as their X-Fi audio PCI Express card.”
ASUS P5K-E WiFi-AP @ TechLounge
“You wouldn’t know by looking, but Intel’s a little new at the chipset business. It’s not that they haven’t been doing it for decades, but just that they’ve never made a business out of it. Until recently.
Intel’s 975X did well; i965 blew doors off hinges. And, though it’s a little long in the technospheric tooth, i965’s footprint is almost too big to fill.”
Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 @ Motherboards.org
“Introducing the all new GA-X48-DQ6 from our friends over at Gigabyte, this is their flagship motherboard for the new Intel 1600MHz FSB CPU line and it looks like a winner from first glance. The motherboard comes in an all gold box that is so shiny it gleams and reflects in the light.”
Gigabyte GA-X48-DQ6 @ HardwareZone
“Gigabyte has refreshed their enthusiast motherboard lineup with the all new Intel X48 chipset. And if you thought only a select few have access to it, you’d be wrong. The GA-X48-DQ6 combines the X48 with good old DDR2 memory and introduces a new power saving feature as well. Read on.”
