| xaj1's Full Review: ASUS P4C800-E DELUX Motherboard |
I bought this board after my very bad experience with the MSI 875P NEO-FIS2R. After numerous frustrations, I ripped the MSI board out (threw it out the window) and ordered the ASUS P4C800-E Deluxe. Been through numerous BIOS upgrades and the ASUS still running like a champ without any hiccups. Bios upgrades do not kill my ASUS motherboard...unlike ahem other motherboards I threw out the window.
I have six hard-drives running...2 in Raid 0 with ICH5R; Run numerous Video editting programs. Performs great!
I spend time enjoying my new computer now instead of fixing it all the time like the MSI.
I did have 2 situations where the ASUSProb showed the CPU/Power running under threshold (alarms went off etc) but since I upgraded the Asusprob software, haven't had problem since. Might have been Asusprob utility software related problem. Anyone have similar problem?
Otherwise, I love this board. Will buy ONLY ASUS motherboards from now on!
