Biostar tforce 965 deluxe VS biostar tforce 965 PT

[Snowman89]

Just found out that there is 2 diffrent mbs with almost same name.
So whats the changes?

Biostar tforce 965 deluxe VS biostar tforce 965 PT

[DaWaN]

The deluxe features ICH8R and the PT the ICH8, so the deluxe has RAID and 6 S-ata ports while the PT only has 4 S-ata ports and no RAID.
When using the same bios overclocking shouldn't be different. The PCB is exactly the same

yeah they are the exact same board with the exception of what Dawan mentioned.
you can also flash the PT with the Deluxe bios

i had horrible luck with mine though but i have seen others have more luck with 6300 and 6400 cpu's.

Since this question was ignored in the other Biostar thread, does the non-deluxe version allow CPU multiplier adjustment? I wouldn't mind trying this board, and since the Deluxe is vaporware in the USA, I'd have to try the PT...
