    Going to be buying one of these boards - was looking at the Deluxe as that's what BT have been using in all their reviews, but the P5K-E seems to be identical but only lacking 1 ethernet port and considerably cheaper?
    Am i missing anything or is that the only difference!?

    Thanks

    Asus have replaced the P5K Deluxe, with the P5K Premium, but if you don't need the extra features of the P5K Premium, I would just get the P5K E....as it basically is a cut down version of the P5K Premium...

    Right, well if the only extra feature is the ethernet port and the extra heatsink, i can definately do without!

    i bought the P5K-E and and it's a great mobo(OCing is easy). besdies the differnces that are pointed above, with premium/Deluxe you can OC more...but you need a very good cooling system.
    i had the same issue which one to buy.but since we wont even use the extra features...i took the P5K-E

    Also check out the Gigabyte DS3R/DS4 and MSI P35 Platinum for about the same price. :thumb:

    Unless it's the WiFi you're after specifically.
