Like I've previously mentioned in my OP, I will run another ( maybe 2 ) comparisons between these boards ( P5W DH Deluxe & Striker Extreme ) this week ( weekend probably ).
I didn't have the "right" memory kit to push both boards to their limits ( my GeIL kit died doing 1058MHz 3-3-3-8 on the P5W ), but I'll be getting some new memory kits this week

I'd like to see where my best ram kit will stop on the P5W & where on the striker...
