| ASUS K8N-E Deluxe Socket 754 motherboard From a physical standpoint, the K8N-E Deluxe is fairly impressive. The board comes with a solid collection of features that left us wanting very little. Sporting 5 PCI slots and 1 AGP slot, the K8N-E is built with expansion in mind. Some may argue a 6th PCI is always a plus, but in this case we think it won't be missed. With the NFORCE 3 supporting SATA natively, this board comes with a total of 6 SATA RAID connections. The chipset drives the two mounted near the AGP slot and a Silicon Image SATALink chip drives the other 4 near the case connections. Additionally, the 2 native SATA ports support RAID 0, 1, 0+1, and JBOD, while the SIL3114 controllers offers the same plus RAID 5. The board also comes with 2 common IDE ports and a floppy connection for legacy support. http://www.hothardware.com/viewartic...leid=585&cid=3

| "By adjusting the multiplier setting to 9.5X, we reached a peak bus of 232MHz, which resulted on the processor running at 2.2GHz. " 232 max FSB? just like my MSI K8N Neo
