nickwh said:If im not wrong, the main difference is that P5K-E has 2 PCIE 16x slots for crossfire support (dual ATI video cards on 1 motherboard) whereas P5K-SE doesn't have it.
These range of P35 motherboards should last 2-3 years without problems but do note IT products move fast and before you know it, time to upgrade.
There are more differences which you could check on the web.
Fellow members help to verify and correct if im wrong.
For video cards, SGD300-500, might as well settle for 8800GTS 320mb version, retails for about SGD460-480.
(some may ask you to wait as the 8800GT is arriving soon, price intro was touted to be SGD500++ i think)
Most brands are 2 years warranty except for Asus which is 3 years warranty.
There are reviews in HWZ for a few 8800gts 320mb range of video cards, do note that there is the default clock speed versions and also the souped up versions which definitely calls for a price difference.
Icic...thx for the info...well..i heard of the up coming 8800GT, but i'm not quiet sure wat r the starting prices yet. So still deciding should i buy first or not. Was worried if i wait too long, the prices may change too fast. Somemore if i buy now, when the 8800GT comes out, the 8800GTS prices later drop. Then i will regret buying it now..X_X Abt the mainboard...still deciding on Asus P5k-SE or P5k-E. Anyone got any better motherboard to suggest? My range is 400-600. Thx!
