The asus problem

[larrys2006]

I was looking at these boards ASUS P6X58D Premium or Asus P6X58D-E and I am not shure what to get? I was thinking of using Corsair Dominator or Mushkin HP3 12800 3x2GB with a golftown cpu. What do you think?

Lol, it would help greatly if you could let us know what your computing needs/interests are.

I will be using this computer for video editing also playing shooting games and audio editing. I am thinking of using 2 or 3 vid cards. Also it will be overclocked with a water setup.

The two boards are almost identical except the P6X58D Premium has two NICs instead of one and includes an extra fan and two eSATA ports.

The P6X58D - E has better SATA III Controller (and it's cheaper, too). Also, I think the Deluxe has a reset button while the E doesn't.

Somewhere around page 170 I think.
