no onboard marvell sas controller is the main difference, not sure what else.
almost the same with P6T Deluxe ...different only on SAS and low cheaper than Deluxe version ....:D:D
they add sas and reduce the price?
are you sure about that hazzan? :confused:
id rather think they are adding sas and offering a new deluxe, and the old deluxe will be cheaper once the new one is out.
weird that they update the board just to add sas :confused:
saaya,
they removed the Marvell SAS host controller rom, and downscaled the VRM design to reduce board costs. From 16 active voltage phases to 8, not sure if they scaled the QPI/IMC reg design down as well.
Isn't that the same as the P6T Vanilla, with "better" cooling?Quote:

only difference between specs is the lack of Marvell SAS host controller rom. Otherwise should be the same board.
I've heard rumours of there being problems with SAS rom and ICH rom not working merrily together when both in RAID mode, and problems with unable to boot off SAS drives I believe when ICH is operating in native/raid.
When is this board going to the stores ? No preview's yet ? Common ASUS I want one :D

Anyone has one allready ? There is too much "silence" arround this board here in XS :D
Have also buy one...have to wait 8-10 days!!
Then finally i can start build my system...and let it calculate Chess :)
JP.
Anyone here is going to try the V2 ?
Isn't it weird that no one on the net has previewed the V2 ?
I've looked, and couldn't find any for sale online. Please keep us posted on your experiences.
The V2 supports 24GB of ram.
I wonder how decreasing phase 16-->8 will affect OC stability (if even at all for 24/7 systems)
Decreasing phase ? its the same as v1 P6T Deluxe..
No clue about other boards since this is the first i7 system I have, but working good at 169bclkx26 multi 1.43v so far :)
I own the P6T V2 and it's an Awesome board! It OC's beautifully and it's been nothing shiort of rock Solid! I waited just for that reason to get rid of the SAS and that's the only Difference between the two.
