ASUS Bearlake P35 Chipset DDR2 P5K Deluxe and DDR3 P5K3 Deluxe (56K warning)

AndreYang · 04-24-2007, 11:05 PM

The performance is still under NDA, so I just share some pics for everyone.

Yellow Memory Dimm is DDR2.

Orange Memory Dimm is DDR3.

DDR3 P5K3 Deluxe pics.

thx for sharing Andre! At first glance they look similar to P5B dlx

wow .... how u get all ES stuff from asus andre??

BulldogPO · 04-24-2007, 11:20 PM

Not bad.
Wondering how that DDR2 version will perform against good old X975 and P965.
When NDA ends?

damn nice ... now do u have DDR3 dimms and working bios?? lol

btw does X38 supports Crossfire?? cuz if it does .. i am switching to that .. screw nvidia.. if u wanna do SLI nv board is ur only option, but for Crossfire if AMD let Intel use it on their board. that will be pretty neat

But thank you for the pictures!

Hey Andre

Thanks for the pics...is it just a performance NDA, or are confirmed chipset cababilities under NDA too.

Can you tell us what the 2nd PCI-E x16 slot works at?

Are the ICH9R SB fully implemented on these boards, and if so, can you say what the improvements in spec are?

Think thats it (for now)

Cheers!

Kenny

DDR3 is Here.

X38 support Crossfire for sure and performance is better than P35. I cannot talk too much about that.

The Bearlake NDA include all. I only can share motherboard pics.

P35 is PCIE 16X+4X. It's the same from P965.

I don't know about ICH9 because I never test my hard driver's performance.

stimpson · 04-24-2007, 11:54 PM

hey andre thanks for keepn us up whats . i thuoght this was supposed to be released a mounth ago

nn_step · 04-24-2007, 11:58 PM

I can't wait for some head to head comparisons

AndreYang · 04-25-2007, 12:07 AM

Where is mouse PS2 port? No one said that.

Just thought I'd point that out.

Edit: Actually... it looks like that board is DDR3, not DDR2. Kinda hard to tell from the pics, though I can say for sure that it's not both.

You know that Andre posted pics of 2 boards, right?

kvm users with lots of boxes

but legacy free just might stick this time

and to think i just upgraded to ddr2 lol

alfaunits · 04-25-2007, 01:27 AM

Forget the mobo, I want that camera

MrRevhead · 04-25-2007, 01:36 AM

It's going to be a long month's wait before we see some performance figures.

Thanks for sharing as usual Andre

Great stuff...
BTW, does it support NetBursts? I' d heard that old p4\pD won't be supported by Bearlake..

moonsond · 04-25-2007, 03:07 AM

Oh well, so i might be able to upgrade MoBO before CPU =]

...and what for is there a green light diode between the SB and IDE(marked SB_PWR)?? It indicates whether is the SB powered

?

dinos22 · 04-25-2007, 03:36 AM

another one

didn't you also get a Gigabyte mobo too

i waaaaaaant one.........

... gotta get some DDR3 gear from some friends

pumero · 04-25-2007, 05:39 AM

nice looking boards except for one thing: the realcrap pci gbit chip.

the pci-e nics from realtek are quite ok, but the pci parts are really the worst gbit chips you can find on the market.
they should have stayed with the good old marvell chips they used for 3 years.
