    Red face Buy Asus P5K-dlx or keep P5B Dlx ?

    As the title states, i m again in a bit of confusion,

    I m a very happy user of a Asus P5B deluxe MB for a few month now, but just for more features n OCing i was thinking of upgrading to P5K,

    I have the cash that i saved up for buying a Stacker STC-T01.

    But is it really worth upgrading for OCing? or is it basically the same mobo with a few extra features, thats it ?

    Help me out

    TIA
    ANP !!!

    I`m more or less in the same boat... I say stick with the P5B IF you are using a Dual, but move to the P5K if you're using a Quad, or plan a move soon

    Since you're happy with the P5B there's no point in upgrading... for now anyway. X38 will come soon, or maybe a killer DFI P35 mobo just in time for Yorkfield, who knows...

    My vote would be on the P5K Deluxe if your changing to quad in the near future. Otherwise if your happy with your P5B and dual core, you might as well keep your current setup.
