Hello friends! A small question.. what will I LOSE and GAIN if I decide to drop ASUS P5N-E SLI and go for INTEL DG965WH mobo... keeping other things same..?
ASUS P5N-E SLI or INTEL DG965WH?
no overclocking.
RAM which operate at more than 1.8volts will cause problems
max. RAM voltage supported 1.8v.

Asus
Pros
You can overclock and juice out the power from Processor and other Stuff
Cons
no Onboard Graphic card so you will have to spend 5-6 Minimum to get a Graphic Card which will last for year or two.
DG965WH has onboard graphic card so you wont be needing a Graphic card to run simple OS. Onboard graphic can also play old games and few new games but not at full eye candy.
Cons - No overclocking, locked BIOS

thanx for replying guys.. in any case i m going to buy grfx card.. so thats not a problem and i m not worried about overclocking yet.. i m not getting the ASUS P5N-E SLI mobo here... Intel mobos are available readily.. so should I go for this one or if u can suggest a better one (INTEL)?
For how much Intel DG965WH. I have this same Mobo
Well , to be very honest .. the P5N-E SLi is worth the wait .. the Intel boards are crappy ... except the high end ones. .
Intel boards to get serviced is a tedious job afaik and in my experiance.
Here i m facing an opposite situation.. asus mobos are difficult to find and servicing problems are also there..praka123 said:

Well then a direct question.. Should I really get that mobo from Mumbai by parcel knowing that i may not get service for it or should I compromise by opting for intel mobo..? Thats the dilemma i m facing rite now and cant decide..deathvirus_me said:

Oh Test Drive Unlimited is gud? wud chk it out.. hmm.. i think ASUS is the way to go..
Hmm... I am with P5N-E SLi !!!! and umm !!! with its price right now !!! its a good buy !!
Only thing which really hearts is there is no On board Grfx and while i was in a Tight bugdet i ended upw with Crappy 6200 LE where g965 would be far better than 6200 LE
