The price difference is big here... 15% more..

Thanks!

i had a P4C800E-DLX which died under MachII so I replaced it with a P4C800 and there was no difference in overclockability between the two boards and I was using the same cpu & ram.. :)

p4c800, the max3 has that one issue with the memory, i forget the exact details.

P4C800-E simply 0wnz Abit

In memory compatiblity, and capacity. I don't think you'll find tighter chipset timings than what an abit can offer.

P4C800 Deluxe any day over the Abit IC7.

E just means Asus finally intergrated the Intel Gigalan feature in the ICH Southbridge...

[masterofpuppets]

It's a worth the extra E on the name though :D

Is that right to say the abit board with your 4-phase VR has more stability over p4c800(3-phase) with precotts ?
:rolleyes:

they BOTH have their strong points.
Abit works BETTER with Prescott's out of the box. Abit's hardware monitor is BETTER than asus's. And don't get max3, just get IC7-G. With the full boat of mods, the P4C800D-E is better with Northwoods...
