I bought the p8p67 deluxe
Its all set up ready to go.. Just waiting for the CPU
I have been doing a lot of research these past 2 months.
I would recommended the asus p8p67 deluxe.. it has 16 + 2 power phases, but you wont need that many. its good for overclocking though.
ewiz has the p8p67 models on sale right now. fast shipping. was going to go with the egg, but they dont stock them yet and i got antsy
May I ask what memory you got to go with it? I am lokking for 2 4GB sticks.
OTOH 4 sticks could be moved over to a future quad channel 2011 system. I most likely would also get the two 4GB sticks but get two more when the LGA2011 system build time comes around.i was going with 4x2gb 1866 ocz but i cancelled that order since I dont want to deal with 4 ram stick problems.
The ram I bought was http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...cm_re=g.skill_8gb_2000-_-20-231-407-_-Product
The whole ripjaw x thing is a marketing gimmick, its the same ram chips in the end. And I can manually adjust the cas latency and other latency settings myself.
the plan is to underclock these to 1866 and try for cas 8 (maybe 7 if im REALLY lucky!) at 1.65v
heres to hoping
If I had the bux, this is the one I'd get tooWhile I'm not claiming it's the "best" available, I'm liking my Asus P8P67 Deluxe so far.
