Asus P4C800E Deluxe Or P4C800 Deluxe

[FleshWound]

Can any 1 tell me what if any is the difference of these two boards as i am stuck as i am stuck between buying either 1.

Looking at overclocking a P4 3Ghz / 2.8Ghz both HT (800mhz).

Currently the prices are

P4C800 Deluxe = £138.65 (in stock)
P4C800E Deluxe £135.13 (but 10 day league time to supplier).

Also which memory would be best (i c most use corsair 3700) and will my graphix card run at 8x (currently have chaintech mobo) & it doesn't like my card one bit (ati 9800 pro 128mb).

Thx in advance for replies.

I have just upgraded my board from a 800deluxe to a 800e deluxe. Iwould strongly recommend the E version if you are going to overclock . Try and get either a rev 1.2 or rev 2 E board as they have improved some voltage issues from earlier boards. My 3.0 would only run 3.5 stable on the 800deluxe due to fluctuating volts on the core voltage. With the exact same setup on the new e deluxe it now runs 3.7 24/7 and 3.76 for benchmarking and is 100% stable at these speeds.

Hope this helps you
