I use to have the Asus P5B board also and I it died on me. I couldnt wait till Newegg shipped me a new board so I decided to buy the P5N-E SLI. hands down P5N-e is a better board you just have to get a heat sink for the southbridge. I just got the P5B board back yesterday and Im trying to sell it on Ebay now. I read this whole thread and OC my board and had no problems doing it, I even update my bios to the new one. I know that 650 chipset even beats the 680 chipset on some of the test that they did. for the money it worth it....

Anybody notice all documentation shows SB is a 4xx series chip, yet CPUZ reports it as 650i?
__________________I am assuming it is just the same SB chip, but CPUZ just reports it that way so you don't think you have been ripped off with an old SB?

So Trekman do you think it is your 8800 or your C2D that gives you a way better 3DMark06 score than me? Obviously I know it is both but I am going to geuss it is the 8800?

well the 8800GTX needs a fast CPU the faster the CPU the better it works, before I got the 8800 I had the XFX 7950GT extreme and I can only get a 3dmark06 score of 5000 with the 8800 installed with the same chip it jump to close to 10000 to answer you questions it more the GPU but having a fast CPU also helps a lot

__________________What do you estimate my chip @ 3.5Ghz would get with your 8800? I get 3345 for 3dmark06 on this rig... pretty pathetic. Then again my old rig even failed to do the first test! HAH!
