    seems nice .but my dfi board had lots of the features they were going " OMG never has this been SEEN before this is a masterpice":)

    anyone know any local retailers for the p5 680i version?

    Pretty much the striker without the bells and whistles, esata and solid capacitors....

    Already somone on the OcUK forums Striker thread is sending his back. Crappy vcore and very hot temps when overclocking.

    Personally I decided on the Intel Bad Axe 2. I want something that will allow me overclock my quad core and this seems made for it and appears to at least match the 680i in terms of fsb capabilities on quad core.

    I suppose it means no SLI for me in the near future but then again the 680i boards have too many niggly things wrong with them for my liking. I know most of it will be fixed with updated bios - but things that annoy me are stuff like no fan control working, reduced sli performance claimed by some after the beta bios sound fix, event viewer errors for sata drives (par for the course for nvidia), chipset runs really hot and noisy chipset fan is needed to keep it cool, memory performance only matching 975x and only with T1 timings if you can get that to work etc.... I can't imagine the striker being much better especially with reports of vcore issues and Asus's tech support is total rubbish. Plus the price is hard to stomach.
