ASUS P6T Deluxe X58 Motherboard Review - Core i7 Processors Welcome

[news 28]

Our first non-Intel motherboard based around the X58 chipset is on the table

today and has a lot to offer anyone considering upgrading to a Core i7 CPU

and platform. This is the first motherboard we have seen offering SAS

support on-board and the P6T Deluxe also runs the gamut in overclocking

features.

Quote: "And how can we forget that this is the FIRST STANDARD MOTHERBOARD TO

OFFICIALLY SUPPORT BOTH CROSSFIRE AND SLI to hit our test bench? We have

seen a couple of complete system builds used "special" drivers to offer the

same experience and yes the Skulltrail platform from Intel last year also

had SLI/CrossFire support but was weighed down by extreme component pricing.

The Intel DX58SO motherboard does NOT support SLI either - due to Intel and

NVIDIA being unable to agree on licensing terms (read: Intel and NVIDIA had

a pissing match)."

 

Thanks for a post!
