[18th Anniversary] Asus Black Pearl - P5k-Premium Testing Report

[sesdave]

I wouldn't necessarily say "saving up" lol, but gathering up the balls to kill my OS. Acrosin is fine, but nothing beats a fresh install

I won't be going RAID0+5 with this rig. This is the last that I will invest in it. Right now, I'm looking forward to the DFI X48 TR3 to make the DDR3 leap and hopefully go HD4870 Crossfire.

BTW...still tweaking and getting results

Must admit I dont see the attraction of DDR3 at the price its at. DDR2 is soooo cheap in comparison and no real performance difference on current releases. This board seems good enough for anything I want for now -but if I did think of going down the crossfire/DDR3 route the Foxconn blackops X48 is the one I would be hankering after. http://www.quantum-force.net/news/N000000016/ Its a mean looking mother http://www.quantum-force.net/Products/P000000004/. I may be tempted!
