The black one.

No idea what the deal with that yellow one is...i thought the puke yellow one was the P5B non-Deluxe, but it says Deluxe, so i have no idea.

The yellow one is not the retail board. I suppuose it could be just a sample to give people an idea of the features the board will have over the usual one.

There are two different P5B Deluxe boards, the only difference being the inclusion of a USB based WiFi card on one. Your pictures are showing the same WiFi board, just the first one was an engineering sample.

Cool. My main concern was the cooling apparatus. The heatsink on the northbridge of the yellow board looks pretty huge, and I was afraid my XP120 wouldn't fit. Plus I'd prefer to have the copper heatpipes. Thanks for clearing that up.
