ASUS
We looked at a few ASUS products in our Computex Preview article so our coverage will highlight some of the expected high volume boards for either AMD or Intel processors this summer.
The M2N4-SLI is an AM2 board based on the nForce4 SLI chipset that will be ASUS's budget priced AM2 SLI board. It boasts passive cooling and a price in the US $75~$85 range. Performance from all indications will be close to that of the nForce 570 SLI but not as feature rich.
ASUS's M2N-SLI Deluxe is based on the nForce 570 SLI chipset and is a fully featured board. In our recent review we found the performance of the nForce 570 SLI to match or be extremely close to that of the nForce 590 SLI.
The M2R32-MVP Deluxe is based on the ATI EXPRESS 3200 and SB600 chipsets while offering improved performance over the A8R32-MVP series.
The P5W DH Deluxe is based on the Intel 975X and ICH7R chipsets. This is one of several boards that ASUS is launching that features their new Digital Home initiative, and they include such features as WiFi-AP Solo, MP3-In, DH Remote, and MP3 FrontLinker options depending upon the board series.
The P5B-V DH Deluxe is based on the Intel G965 and ICH8R chipsets. This board features the new Intel integrated 3000 series graphics capability along with eSATA and IEEE 1394a features.
Four of the most prominent options on the ASUS Digital Home series boards will be the DH Remote, WiFi-AP Solo, MP3-In, and FrontLinker components.

I have an old ECS mainboard, and it worked great (except for some restarts when gaming over 12 hours :D )lewisc - Thursday, June 15, 2006 - link
MSI - 'Angelic Quality, Heavenly Performance'. Well I don't know about anyone else, but I've been looking for a graphics card for quite some time that flies better with the Big Guy.What exactly is angelic about a computer product?!

Good thing from ASrock for us people suck in agp world wanting a conroe.Rock Hydra - Thursday, June 15, 2006 - link
Yeah, I hope the AGP/PCIe is implemented in the same manner as the ULI chipsed does. Though, I'm less interested in AGP, and WAY more interested in DDR. Though...what would the DDR2 800 or 667 Equivalence be to DDR? Would i have to get DDR800 or DDR667, and does something like that even exist?Strunf - Thursday, June 15, 2006 - link
The FSB is either 800 or 1066, soo the DDR and DDR2 have to be 400 or 533...its actually written on the boards DDR400 or DDR2 667.Performance wise I would say DDR400 is on pair with DDR2 533.
