the P5N32-E SLI Plus, is the reason the regular P5N32-E SLI was discontinued.
apparantly, its a improved version of this board.
thats all I heard so far.
havent seen a pic, or even have a clue how the + version is better then this version, but thats why its no longer on the Asus website, it was discontinued and being updated.
"The command and conquer model," said the EA CEO, "doesn't work. If you think you're going to buy a developer and put your name on the label... you're making a profound mistake."
Where did you see that a P5N32-E SLI Plus is being released? Disregard, I'll google me ownself.

the Plus version has some upgraded caps so I can see...
I also hear, alittle of the PCB has been upgraded for better power... but I really dont know that for fact. just trying to remember the tiny bits of info I heard about this new version over the last few weeks.

just found this
The ASUS P5N32-E SLI is under going an update to the Plus version that features revised electrical components, BIOS changes, and new accessory items.
So if the P5N32-E SLI is discontinued.. what about the people who currently have one? ASUS hasnt released a proper unbuggy bios for the P5N32-SLI yet.. other 680i boards seem to be getting bios updates.. (eVGA, Striker)
And has anyone tried to flash the P5N32-E SLI PLUS bios onto the P5N32-SLI?

do u think this board would be a good overclocker?
i have a e6400 or should i go for the AsusP5N-E SLI NF650i SLi
AsusP5N-E SLI NF650i SLI was getting 500MHz FSb speeds. The only real issue I have with it is the 4 phase voltage which leads to huge voltage droops. But, for $150 and a great overclocker it is the way to go on a budget. Pair it with the upcoming 4300 and you'll have a 3.6GHz C2D setup for under $300.

Kunaak,
one more thing - it's not just an "upgrade"... take a closer look near sata sockets - old caps removed and new added on NEW place.the Plus version has some upgraded caps so I can see...
Pics: http://www.anandtech.com/tradeshows/...spx?i=2905&p=3
no electrolytic caps on PLUS version, only tantalum and conductive polymer.
So, I think if we will have more detail pics - we will be able to find more new electric stuff on this board.
Also - there are no Asus Striker hidden labels...
and the last thing: it's not C55XE (marked as C55-SLIX16N-A2 or NF680I-SLI-N-A2) as on non-Plus version. It's C55 which marked as C55-SLIX8N-A2.
http://strony.aster.pl/pmpcfg/ASUS_P...-sli-plus3.jpg
So, C55XE only on Striker and P5N32-E non-PLUS.
guys... I bought P5N32-E SLI for 269$ from mwave.com... now PLUS version with downgrade chipset for 309$? is it joke?
.inimitable.

you know... PLUS version marked as 16x SLI... I'm sure it has at least two 16x...
finally found: manual from PLUS version says NVIDIA® nForce® Dual PCI-E x 16
Asus page is empty for this chipset now.
