    Looks like Asus is very keen on the word "P5B" lately on their product range eh ?

    What next ? P5B-"CF" .... Choco Flavour ?

    Hmmm. So many good 965 boards. I'm thinking of picking one up to put under DI and LN2 eventually but I really need a 500 MHz FSB board. How does this one compare?

    That's pretty sweet.
    Looks like they're using all solid caps.

    I wonder what that thing between the pci slots at the bottom does.

    Foxconn is a major manufacturer for motherboard components, many motherboard manufacturers use Foxconn parts, fairly typical really.

    Are those pics of the Vista edition? I don't see the onboard memory booster thingy.

    BTW. I just ordered one of the P5B Viste Premium edition. Wasted money on the mini LCD but I needed a board.

    So this is why they have done practically nothing towards improving the P5B deluxe.

    I'm afraid a lot of people will disagree.

    TI is almost always more highly recommended than VIA when it comes to pro audio and video productions where 1394 is used.
