The i975 has the better northbridge and the P5B has the better southbridge. Most likely you want the i975 then

P5W-DH doesn't leave me with any extra SATA ports though

. I have 2 SATA DVD-/+R and 3 sata HDs .. be nice to have 1 extra spot to plug stuff in (save for the eSATA port).

if the price of the P5B isnt at least $50 less than the P5W-DH, im going to be really really mad.

I was really looking forward for the next Asus board. Now Im very dissapointed

, this board is just as pricy as the other high end 975 boards.
