Not officially no. I was able to get on at a local vendor. He said that intense competition between Asus and MSI have led them to flood the marker prior to release. You may want to try calling some of your local vendors.

Rectalfier:

Can you email me the info. (vendor ph#)

What are the diff's between the p4b533 and the prior p4b266/c mobo's ??

I really need to order one now in the next 4-5 days.

Does the p4b533 offer 3:4 mem. ratio's above 133 ?

Thanks for the info.
Regards,
Jose

P4B533 uses Intel 845E where as the P4B266 uses 845-D. Its really just a formality because P4B266 supports 533fsb unoffically, in other words, 845E just brings offical 533fsb Support, although the P4B266 does already. As for the 3:4 ratio above 133, I really dunno.

Here's where I got it from ----------------> Link

I'm not sure it will have the dividers. There is virtually no information on this motherboard anywhere. I bought it because it was only 10 dollars more than the P4b266.

Thanks Rectalfier.

Which board did you buy ? They have listed the following:

P4B533 w/ sound , 845E, 5pci, ddr333, 533fsb

and the

P4B533VML - 845G, 5pci, ddr333, all-in-one


Both links point to the P4TE (rambus) :p

Is this vendor in Canada ?

When will you get you board in ?

Thanks for all the info.

Regards,
Jose

Hey Jose, I got the P4B533 w/ sound , 845E, 5pci, ddr333, 533fsb. It should be coming in tommorow or Monday, around four days after I bought it. The company is located in Calgary Alberta, Canada.

Strangely I heard the i845G chipset has better memory performance, I'm not sure if this is true. Also, the Asus i845G is $20 cheaper. Hmmm. I guess we won't know untill the reviews come out. I will do some of my own benchmarking when I get the board.

rectalfier, that's true - they tweaked the memory controller on the 845G to improve the integrated grahpics performance.

Can you post some info here ?

Can't read your other thread, not a subscriber. :(

Thanks,
