Gigabyte X48-DQ6 @ TweakTown
“Today we have a look at the Intel X48 chipset for the first time. While it has a new name, things haven’t changed; in fact, X48 is essentially an X38 chipset that has been hand picked to run higher clock speeds and to support the 1600MHz FSB CPU when Intel finally releases it sometime this year.”
XFX nForce 780i SLI @ Bit-Tech
“There are less partners involved in the reference design this time around, unlike with the nForce 680i SLI which had half a dozen typically graphics companies joining the motherboard fold to sell the same board. Instead, we have a far greater differentiation from a range of Tier 1 motherboard manufacturers like Asus, Gigabyte, MSI and Foxconn with nForce 780i SLI.”
ASUS P5K3 Premium Black Pearl Edition @ OC Club
“When the time comes to purchase a new system, one of the things that you will purchase is a new motherboard. The dilemma you face is which one to get, and how much will it cost. AMD or Intel? Chipset? Manufacturer? Features? Oooohh, so many questions that it makes your head spin. New technology always brings along new hardware. That leads us to the subject of this article.”
ASUS ROG X38 DDR3 Maximus Extreme @ TweakTown
“X38 is now here, and it’s still a mixed bag in regards to how it performs. So far there aren’t really any performance breaking features of the chipset, it’s basically a P35 but with better Crossfire support and a few novelties such as XMP memory profiles. Today we are testing out the ASUS Maximus Extreme board which is designed to be the most impressive board ASUS has ever put out to market.”
ASUS P5E3 Premium & Maximus Extreme @ Hot Hardware
“We hope you all had good weekends. We’re writing to let you all know that we’ve just posted a new article at HotHardware in which we evaluate the features, overclockability, and performance of two of Asus’ premiere motherboards for the Intel platform, the X48-based P5E3 Premium and the X38-based Maximus Extreme.”
DFI LANParty DK P35 T2R/S @ OC Online
“If you remember the DFI NF4 motherboards, they had excellent performance in OC and stability. They were also reasonably priced. Today, one of our forum members made a very detailed post on what’s included with the DK P35 and how it performs. Let’s see if it’s the same!”
ASUS X38 Forumula Maximus @ Neoseeker
“The stock results show that the Formula Maximus Special Edition performs well; and the overclocked results show that it can reach clock speeds fairly close to the maximum of other X38 and P35 boards. The dual PCIe 2.0 16x slots mean that you will not run out of PCIe bandwidth for high end CrossFire setups; frankly, video cards are no where near saturating even a PCIe 1.0 8x link in dual card configurations, so the Maximus leaves you with plenty of headroom.”
ASUS P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP @ Virtual-Hideout
“Who here wouldn’t want the latest and greatest motherboard from Asus? Yup, I would too. In the crosshairs of this review will be the P5E3 Deluxe/WiFi-AP@n with the new X38 chipset. The Intel X38 Express Chipset supports new dual-channel DDR3 memory technology, next generation dualX16 PCI Express 2.0 and Intel Extreme Tuning to unleash exceptional performance in today’s gaming applications.”
ASUS P5E3 Deluxe WiFi-AP @ Techgage
“If you’re on the lookout for a DDR3 motherboard, the P5E3 Deluxe proves to be a superb choice. It’s one of the most feature-packed offerings on the market, with it’s passive cooling, on-board WiFi, high energy efficiency and even a remote control – all while being a solid overclocker as well.”
DFI Infinity Blood Iron P35-T2RL @ TweakTown
“We have been blessed to review a number of amazing boards from DFI’s top shot line up; today we slow it down a bit as we look at one of their more mainstream oriented designs. As part of the Infinity series, the Blood Iron Infinity P35-T2RL motherboard is based on the popular Intel P35 chipset supporting DDR2 memory. How does it stack up as a more cost-effective mainstream board?”
